Tired but wired? A slow floor wind-down
Before the small shift
The moment
Your body is tired at bedtime, but your thoughts keep racing.
A way in
Try this
- Lie with your legs up the wall for about 3 minutes.
- Move into child's pose for about 3 more minutes.
- Lie back with the soles of your feet together and let your knees fall open, about 3 minutes.
If you try it
What might shift
Out of your head, back into your body.
Paraphrased from an A Yoga Walk Facebook reel. This is not a transcript.
Move slowly and breathe naturally. There’s nothing to get right here: three gentle shapes on the floor, and a little time for your body to catch up with how tired it already is.
General wellbeing, not medical advice. Skip legs-up-the-wall with glaucoma, after recent surgery or in pregnancy unless you’ve had advice, and stop if anything hurts.
Take the good part with you.
