While we may not be able to take a nap, taking a few quiet moments to shut your eyes is a practice referred to as quiet wakefulness. Although it isn't a substitute for sleep, resting your eyes for a few minutes a day can help relax your muscles and organs, when discovered this can be further enhanced with a weighted pillow it was a game changer.
If a rare moment happens where you find yourself with a longer time to relax, I love Yoga Nidra. It’s an accessible practice I was introduced to as a form quick and easy deep rest/stress relief technique to help you get into a deeper state of relaxation and awareness. Yogi’s and some studies show that a 20 min session is equivalent to 2-4 hours of deep rest!
This simple practice calms the nervous system and promotes deep rest and relaxation, which has proven to reduce stress, can lead to better health, and can be even more effective in reducing anxiety than meditation!
Enhance your practice with the eye-pillow and refreshing mist for a full experience!
