Yoga for Stress-Related Insomnia

Abstract: Yoga can help reduce stress, which is a common cause of insomnia. Since yoga can help with managing stress, it may help with insomnia. Yoga is an ancient form of exercise that focuses on conscious breathing, flexibility, and strength. It aims to improve spiritual, mental, and physical health. Yoga is a safe mind-body therapy that can reduce stress, which can help with stress-related insomnia. There are many forms of yoga, but if a person wishes to practice before bed, then styles such as Yin yoga or gentle Hatha yoga may be the most suitable. People can practice any yoga pose that helps them relax, but some good options to start with include Butterfly Pose, Child’s Pose, and Corpse Pose. Try practicing at the same time every day, shortly before bed.
