Welcome to the world of Yoga for Mental Well-being. Let's embark on a journey of self-discovery and inner peace through the practice of yoga.
Slide into a comfortable seated position and close your eyes. Take a deep breath in and exhale slowly. Let go of all your worries and distractions.
Focus on your breath. Inhale for 4 counts, hold for 2 counts, and exhale for 6 counts. Repeat this cycle for a few minutes. Notice how your mind calms down.
Now, let's move into some gentle stretches. Slowly raise your arms above your head and stretch your body. Feel the tension release from your muscles.
Next, let's try the cat-cow pose. On all fours, inhale and arch your back like a cat. Exhale and round your spine like a cow. Repeat this flow for a few breaths.
As you continue to move through different poses, pay attention to your body and how it feels. Let go of any judgments or expectations.
Now, let's try the tree pose. Stand tall and place one foot on the opposite inner thigh. Find your balance and focus on a fixed point in front of you.
As you hold this pose, visualize yourself as a strong and stable tree, rooted to the ground. Feel a sense of grounding and stability within yourself.
As we come to the end of our practice, let's take a moment to express gratitude for our body and mind. Thank yourself for taking this time for self-care.
Slowly open your eyes and take a moment to notice how you feel. Remember, you can always come back to this practice whenever you need to find peace and calmness within. Namaste.
