Yoga Evening Stress Release for Beginners

Yoga evening stress release for beginners? Nothing quite like it, really.



Had a hard day, did you? Well, nothing better than a relaxing – and invigorating – Yoga session to de-stress!

Gone are the days – thankfully – of that relaxing evening drink or drop-by-to-the-bar or pub even for chitchat. Welcome Yoga. Enough is enough.



Let’s get serious about this. Stress is serious business and so is Yoga.

We don’t have to waft eloquently on and on about what life is like.



We all know the stresses and tensions assailing us from all sides – from wake up to meet the loo deadline to coping with rush-hour traffic and making to work on time, meeting work deadlines, etc, etc, etc. The list is, literally, unending. But here’s something unwinding. Yoga evening stress release for beginners – and thank heavens for that!

I’d say a Yoga session is the ideal way to de-stress. If you’re physically drained out, you may skip those vigorous warm-ups and Surya Namaskars. If you’re mentally fatigued – and most of us in these sedentary times usually are – nothing like a couple minutes of vigorous warm-ups – spot jogging, skipping, perhaps, twists, turns, up and down, sideways, this way that……….just go, go, go!

Then rest for a while and start the sequence. Ideally Yoga sessions cover the following:

• Standing Postures
• Sitting Postures
• Supine Postures
• Prone Postures
• Inverted Postures

Then again, not everyone has to through the whole regimen. We’re here to relax and unwind, remember. So get into stretching, contracting and twisting mode. Stretch as much as you can – followed, as always, by the reverse, contracting poses – twist as far as you can then relax. RELAX, RELAX, AND RELAX!

Keep breathing – Deeply! Never forget your abdominal breathing; it’s your lifeline to relaxation. Try it; believe it or not, it works!
