Another great way to relax and prepare for sleep is to practice yoga or a similar exercise. When many of us think of Yoga, we picture a guru and strange rituals. But it’s not that complicated and it’s great for health, well-being and yes, even sleep.

Here are a few reasons to consider Yoga:

• Yoga helps increase your flexibility while stretching ligaments & tendons, lubricating joints and toning muscles!
• Some of the Yoga positions (particularly the Forward Bends) can help you shrink your tummy!
• Yoga helps restore elasticity of the spine and improve your posture.
• Almost all Yoga postures help to massage internal glands and organs, which helps keep the body’s systems functioning properly. This includes the endocrine system, the digestive system and the cardiovascular system!
• Regular meditation after your yoga session can help to calm your mind, decreasing anxiety and leaving you in a better mood.
• Yoga’s breathing exercises will help expand your lung capacity.
