En la vida actual, llena de estrés y preocupaciones, conciliar el sueño puede convertirse en una verdadera batalla. Afortunadamente, el yoga nos ofrece una herramienta poderosa para combatir el insomnio y alcanzar un descanso reparador: las posturas de yoga o asanas. A continuación, te presentamos 5 ejercicios de yoga sencillos y efectivos que puedes realizar en la comodidad de tu hogar para relajarte y dormir mejor por las noches.

5 ejercicios de yoga

1. Postura del Niño (Balasana)

Arrodíllate sobre tu mat, con las rodillas separadas al ancho de las caderas y los dedos de los pies juntos. Siéntate sobre los talones y flexiona el torso hacia delante, apoyando la frente en el suelo. Extiende los brazos hacia delante o colócalos a los lados del cuerpo con las palmas hacia arriba. Respira profundamente y mantén la postura durante 2-3 minutos.

2. Postura del Gato-Vaca (Marjaryasana-Bitilasana)

Comienza en posición de cuadrupedia, con las manos debajo de los hombros y las rodillas debajo de las caderas. Inhala arqueando la espalda, levantando la cabeza y el coxis (pose de vaca). Exhala flexionando la espalda, bajando la cabeza y llevando el mentón hacia el pecho (pose de gato). Repite el movimiento de forma fluida durante 5-10 respiraciones.

3. Postura del Ángulo Invertido (Viparita Karani)

Acuéstate boca arriba sobre el mat y eleva las piernas en vertical, apoyando la pared si lo necesitas. Deja que los muslos se relajen y los pies caigan hacia los lados. Cierra los ojos y respira profundamente durante 5-10 minutos.

4. Postura del Cadáver (Savasana)

Acuéstate boca arriba sobre tu tapete, con los brazos y piernas extendidos a los lados. Separa los pies unos 30 cm y deja que las palmas de las manos miren hacia arriba. Cierra los ojos y enfócate en tu respiración, relajando cada parte de tu cuerpo desde los pies hasta la cabeza. Mantén la postura durante 10-15 minutos.

5. Respiración Diafragmática (Pranayama)

Siéntate en una posición cómoda con la espalda recta. Coloca una mano sobre tu abdomen y la otra sobre el pecho. Inhala profundamente expandiendo el abdomen, mientras el pecho permanece quieto. Exhala lentamente contrayendo el abdomen. Repite el ciclo de respiración durante 5-10 minutos.

Consejos adicionales

  • Practica estos ejercicios de yoga 1-2 horas antes de acostarte para obtener mejores resultados.
  • Crea un ambiente tranquilo y relajante en tu habitación para dormir.
