Nightly Yoga Routine

I actually got into a decent night-time yoga routine before bed while I was visiting family for the holidays. I live on the West Coast; they live on the East Coast. I was always up after everyone else went to bed. I find that doing some gentle hatha yoga before bed calms my mind down and helps keep my body limber. I’m also still working on those hamstrings – and doing it nightly definitely makes a difference! (I can actually see where I might actually get the backs of my feet to the floor in downward facing dog – this will be a miracle!)

I’ve also been learning a great 10-minute Qigong (Chi Kung) routine as well. I find the gentle nature of Qigong to be a good antidote to the sometimes harsh workouts you can do in a strenuous yoga flow set or in kundalini yoga. I’ve decided to study Qigong more this year, so I’ll be covering that in this blog as well.
