Publisher's Synopsis
From the author of Yoga Sequencing and Teaching Yoga, a master yoga trainer explains how to use yoga poses, meditations, and breathwork to overcome insomnia and get a good night's rest.
Over 65% of U.S. adults are sleep deprived, despite the fact that modern science has unravelled some of the mysteries of our sleeping, dreaming, and waking states and that age-old yoga practises are helping us enjoy better sleep, clearer minds, and healthier bodies. Stress, heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, and depression are all made worse by a lack of sleep. Postural sequences, breathing exercises, and meditation practises are just some of the yoga activities that master yoga teacher, trainer, and best-selling author Mark Stephens recommends for better sleep at any age. He offers age- and condition-specific tools and sequences for improving sleep naturally and without drugs by combining the ancient wisdom of yoga with the insights of modern neuroscience and psychology.
