My Yoga Routines

My Yoga Routines 


I have started to develop morning and evening routines to help me better wake up or fall asleep.

Although they may vary slightly from day to day ,the main poses are the same in both routines. First I start with head-rolls then shoulder-rolls, 5 revolutions both before I start my routine.

Apologies in advance if I miss-name some of the poses. 

Morning


  1. Twisting Triangle
  2. Warrior 2
  3. Tree (Basic version)
  4. Downward Dog
  5. Extended child
  6. Cat
  7. Cobra
  8. Upward Dog
  9. Locust
  10. Camel 
  11. East Stretch (Eased version. You could call it "Table pose")
  12. Various breathing exercises
  13. 3 "Om"s
  14. Start my morning meditation.

Evening

  1. Rag-doll
  2. Downward Dog
  3. Extended child
  4. Cat
  5. Cobra 
  6. Shoulder-stand (My favourite pose. It makes me feel like a pro🙂)
  7. Plough (as far as I can go )
  8. Spinal Twist
  9. Corpse (normally with pillows and cushions)
  10. Rest on the mat before going to bed. (Or I sometimes just sleep there till morning . haha!


I am aiming to make these routines a daily ritual where and when possible.

I am really starting to enjoy yoga and meditation and I am now finding ways to implement my spiritual practices into my everyday life.

Namaste.
