How To Balance Your Body And Mind With A Relaxing Christmas Yoga Routine

by Dhanya Parameswaran | 24 Dec 2021

The holiday season is a time where many of us find ourselves having trouble balancing our body and mind with our hectic schedules. To help you stay grounded during this hectic time, we have created an easy Christmas yoga routine for beginners or those looking for something new. This routine will provide you with some much-needed balance during the holidays.

1. Cat/Cow

This pose is an excellent way to get the spine going. It is also perfect for when you have been lounging on your sofa all day, longing for some movement. It also improves blood flow and reduces stress levels while strengthening muscles that support our back health.

2. Chair pose

It is time to relax your body with this ancient yoga pose. This head-to-knee stretch will wake up your leg muscles and abdominal organs, which are often neglected in our modern lifestyles of stress. The benefits include increased blood flow all around the body as well as relief from chronic pain caused by misalignments or tightness elsewhere on your body.

3. Forward fold

The seated forward folds are a lovely way to calm the mind and stretch the back of the body at the same time. The act of sitting in a seated forward fold is relaxing and stretches the back. The hip flexors are stretched, which will make it easier for you to take care of them later in life due to movement flexibility.

4. Chest opener

If you have been sitting down a lot, this pose gives you the opportunity to expand and stretch out while still engaging all muscles in our upper body. Simply take a deep breath and effortlessly draw out your arms back and forth. Remember to squeeze your shoulder blades together as you breathe and repeat the process 5-10 times to feel freedom of movement around your chest and back area.

5. Wide-legged folds

This simple savasana is done as your body rests and relaxes from all those deep breaths in asanas such as forward folds or wide leg pose. When engaging in this pose, it is important to keep your back elongated and leave the front of your body open. If you feel your hamstrings tightening up at any point, just bend your knees and elevate your palms with yoga blocks to maintain that straight back and release the tension.
