Yoga poses tips

This is an excellent schedule that you are following. It is a perfect blend of cardiovascular exercises combined with mind and body mediation. Brisk walking will help you to lose the calories and prepare the body for the workout ahead. Warm up exercises are a must and it is a good practice to always begin intensive exercises with a warm up session. You can increase your warm up schedule to another 5 minutes more making it 15 minutes of warm up workouts.

If you have been following this schedule for a long time then Surya Namaskar can be increased gradually from the current five to an increased number till you are comfortable. Surya Namaskar by itself is a complete form of exercise.  It is an ideal warm-up and conditioning exercise for physical and mental well-being.  As a matter of fact, each one of the 12 postures of Surya Namaskar provides the body the gracefulness and strength in addition to mental peace, with the regular performance of Surya Namaskar. You can also set aside some time just to indulge in some deep breathing meditative techniques without combining them with asanas. Relaxation is also a must between intensive exercises to regulate the heartbeat and normalize the blood pressure. Keep up the good work.
