What Are Some Great Morning Habits?

Today the problem of heavy morning awakenings and hateful partings with your favorite bed and pillow will be left behind! We have assembled a complex of interesting asanas , which are ideal for morning yoga. Do it every morning to improve your well-being and recharge with vigor and energy for the whole day!

Unfortunately, the morning awakening for most of us is not an entirely pleasant surprise. The alarm clock rings and instead of watching your beautiful dream, we are forced to get up, have breakfast and go to work or school. At this moment, we want to cheer up faster.

In childhood we were taught: in order to be cheerful and workable during the day, it would be good to start the morning with charging. With this statement it is difficult to argue. If we want our body as long as possible to keep a youth and health, and mood as often as possible was raised, the physical development should be our habit that brings not only benefits but also fun. Therefore, I would like to talk about the complex asanas, which will help to cheer up in the morning, recharge the body and mind for the day, as well as lift your mood.

Morning yoga at home can help you, finally, master the performance of techniques that can only be performed on an empty stomach. And in the morning the stomach is empty. These are techniques such as uddiyana bandha and nauli. Incredibly effective techniques for awakening, optimization of all body systems and enhancing vitality. And as we remember, as we remember from the sources of yoga, it is the most important purifying technique that helps balance the physiological and energy components of our body.

Morning hatha yoga necessarily includes dynamic techniques. Such techniques as the complex of the Sun’s greetings or the main vinyasas (ligaments of movements in synchronization with breathing)

Yoga at home represents the morning complex of the awakening techniques of yoga. But even in the morning it is important to remember the techniques of relaxation. In order for the practice to be balanced, it is necessary to include in the class such techniques as full yogic breathing, ujaya breathing and, of course, shavasana.

Hatha yoga complements any morning complex of exercises. If you are used to doing classic exercises in the morning (push-ups, squats, lunges, slopes), asana hatha yoga will help diversify your activities.

Morning practice of yoga will be an excellent start to your day. At first, you may feel a slight discomfort from an early rise, but eventually, when this awakening becomes a habit, you will feel the full benefit of performing asanas in the morning.
