Yoga practice effectively improves sleep

In a society where the pace of life and work is getting faster and faster and the pressure is increasing, sleep problems have become a health problem that many people often face.

Lack of sleep is very damaging to the body and often leads to various accidents. It is the chief culprit of physical and brain fatigue. Poor sleep can cause adverse reactions such as headaches, inattention, and memory loss. Severe insomnia may also cause various diseases in the body and cause great damage to the human body.

The most fundamental cause of insomnia is the inability to relax muscles, including the muscles of the limbs, trunk and internal organs. When the muscles of the body are in a state of tension, the sympathetic nerves of the body are excited, and the brain and nervous system cannot be calm down. It can also be considered that the brain is at the end of the day. If you don't relax or the brain is not in a quiet and comfortable environment, you can't calm down the "noise" or activity in the brain, and you continue to work intensively. Naturally, it is difficult to get a good sleep, which can easily lead to insomnia.

Some people find that yoga practice can effectively improve insomnia. The reason is that the practice of posture, breathing and attention in increasing practice can calm and soothe the brain and body, excite the parasympathetic nervous system, play a sedative effect, and make the body and brain calm and relax quickly.

Posture exercises in yoga exercises, such as recumbent hero pose, supine relaxation, etc., are interspersed before, during and after a complete set of exercises to specifically release muscle tension, making the yoga exercise process easier, easier and effortless, thereby promoting sleep and improving the quality of sleep.

There is no doubt that yoga practice is an effective way to improve sleep. Anyone who is troubled in this regard can give it a try! (Internship Editor: Wu Jinyu)
