Yoga Poses for Insomnia oga Easy Pose for Insomnia



To begin your yoga practice for overcoming insomnia, you are going to want to go into easy pose. This is easy pose (Indian style or half lotus). It just requires you to cross your legs over one another or stack your feet with your knees bent. The important thing is that your legs are comfortable and your needs don't come up past your waist. If they come up past the level of your waist, find something like a block and put it right underneath your sitz bones. You can feel those two bones. Underneath your glutes, you might need to move the fleshy part of your but out of the way, so your knees drop down below the level of the waist. You are going to want to make yourself comfortable in easy pose. Take a few easy breaths all by yourself, inhaling. As the crown of your head floats, you are going to become a little bit taller and as you exhale, just let the energy settle falling through the sitz bones to the floor. Breath into the belly. When you exhale, exhale fully. You are going to extend your inhales and exhales. Maybe counts of 4 inhaling and exhaling. Just try and stay here from 1-3 minutes to begin your asana practice for healing insomnia. Inhaling and exhaling. Feeling all the tension fall out of your face, out of your throat and out of your shoulders.
