Sitting in meditation is challenging enough without aches and cramps. Avoid the discomfort by doing these three yoga stretches before you get your ohm on.
Yoga teacher Niki Boileau shows us the three yoga poses she likes to do before settling into a meditation session. The focus of these poses is to open up your hips and lower back to ensure that you can find comfort whether you are meditating for 5 minutes or fifty. There is nothing worse than trying to meditate and being distracted by stiffness, joint pain or sudden cramps.
Whether you're new to yoga or a long practicing yogi, these three poses will help you stay focused on the meditation.
Want more? Niki also hosts a 13 minute yoga flow video developed specifically to prepare you for meditation. It's all part of tuja's Learn to Meditate Premium Experience: a 40 Day program to help you get started or expand your meditation practice through daily guided meditations.
