Provided it is the right practices for you is [00:01:00] often more effective than if you were to go to a couple of yoga classes a week.

Bit of meditation, bit of self-inquiry, quiet, contemplative practice.

And. Some variations there. Know that you don't have to close your eyes. You don't have to do the huster mudra, the hand posture, and it can be a great way to add a yoga snack into your day. there is a trauma informed meditation relaxation,
Yoga [00:04:00] doesn't have to involve rolling out a yoga mat or. Getting yourself into some sort of bendy, pretzel like shape or any shape. It's about what you feel inside rather than what you look on the outside. ,
