Nurture your body with your regular yoga practice. Yoga improves your posture and flexibility while connecting your mind and body through breath.
A wonderfully nurturing pose is Child's Pose (Balasana). Kneel on your mat and sit down on your heels. With knees hip width apart fold your torso over your thighs as you exhale. Your arms fall next to your outer thighs, palms up while your forehead rests on your mat. Big toes touching and knees apart will look like aV. With your breath and awareness notice the release of tension in the neck and shoulders. Rest in Balasana for ten to fifteen deep breaths. The perfect pose for winding down in the evening and preparing for restful sleep.
It's like giving yourself a full body hug.
Namaste.
