Commence with Basic Yoga Poses

Recognize that you are not required to be an expert in yoga. Try some easy yoga poses to reduce stress at first. 

• Pranayama (Deep Breathing)- To start, use your thumb to close your right nostril and take a slow breath through your left. For a moment hold your breath. Next use your ring finger to seal your left nostril before slowly exhaling through your right. For multiple rounds keep switching your nostrils – inhaling through one and exhaling through the other – for every breath. 
• Child’s Pose (Balasana)- With your toes together kneel on the floor and gently recline on your heels. Relax your shoulders and neck and drop your forehead to the floor. Feel the stretch in your spine as you extend your arms in front of your palms down. As long as it feels comfortable, hold the pose while taking deep slow breaths. 
• Dogs that Face Downward (Adho Mukha Svanasana)- Starting on your hands and knees, align your arms and legs in an inverted V shape and raise your hips up and back. Keep your heels planted or bend them slightly if needed and use your core. Feel the strain in your calves and hamstrings as you look down between your legs. Hold the pose for five to ten deep fluid breaths. 
• The Practice of Meditation- If it’s easier for you to concentrate, close your eyes and focus on your breathing. Take note of the airflow into and out of your body as well as the rise and fall of your belly or chest. When the inevitable thought crosses your mind, acknowledge it gently and gently bring your attention back to your breathing. Start with brief sessions – even just two to three minutes – and as you get more accustomed to the practice progressively extend the duration.

How Do You Continue Doing Yoga Every Day?

Starting out small five minutes is sufficient for instance. It should be used in conjunction with a routine such as right after brushing your teeth. For helpful sessions use apps or free internet videos. You will eventually find yourself yearning for that peaceful moment. As a final step you should monitor your mood both before and after to observe any changes. 

But keep in mind that practicing yoga on a daily basis only requires the willingness to stop and take a moment to breathe; it doesn’t require hours of practice or expert skills. You can turn stress into calm and carry that serenity into the rest of your day by setting aside a few minutes.
