Practice Yoga for Sleep, Insomnia, and Deep Relaxation

Sleeping well is the ultimate preventative medicine and contributor to good health. It’s linked to lower body weight, improved mental and physical health, stronger immune systems and lower risk of chronic diseases. In fact, “insufficient sleep is a global public health epidemic that is often unrecognized and under-reported” (Global Wellness Institute).

That’s why it’s critical to prioritize your sleep and to do whatever you can to prepare your body and mind to rest.
