Help Settle a Busy Mind Before Sleep
About the session
Allowing ourself time to release tension that accumulates in our body can feel supportive to our nervous system and general overall health. The stretches are designed to encourage diaphragmatic breathing, which allows a slower deeper exhale. When we breath in this way our heart rate calms and feels steady, which in turn can help stabilise a healthy blood pressure and lower inflammation in the body. It also encourages the muscle to release, new blood flow to tense areas and aches & pains to ease. It is also good for lymphatic drainage.
The relaxation allows you to actively choose rest, without lots of outside sensory stimulation. When we choose active rest, it can feel very supportive for the brain and mind. Allowing you to process the day. This can help with sleep and our energy levels for the next day.
