Yoga in Bed for Deep Sleep to Calm Your Nervous System & Counted Breathwork

Feeling calm? Have a question? Send me a text:) [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2518406/fan_mail/new] You don't have to get out of bed for this one. This 14-minute guided practice is designed to bring your body all the way down — from the tension and stimulation of the day into the deep, quiet rest your nervous system actually needs to sleep. We move through slow shoulder and neck rolls, gentle cat-cow and spinal twists, child's pose, and leg stretches, then close with cyclic sighing breathwork — one of the most effective techniques for activating the parasympathetic nervous system (your rest and digest state). Every movement is intentionally slow, because slow is what signals safety to your body. If you've ever laid in bed tired but wired — this is for you. 💤 No mat. No effort. Just show up and let your body lead.
