Beginner Yoga and Meditation videos I use and some tips

There has been much talk on what benefits of yoga and meditation can bring to a person’s well-being.

One year ago, I embarked on a journey to test it out. Especially in a high-pace city I am living in, yoga and meditation has presented me with a different realm which helps to completely calm the mind. Experienced practitioners of yoga and meditation will be able to relate to what I mean.

How to start:

I have listed below some of the clearer videos I found online. They provide a step-to-step narration and are easy enough for beginners.

Meditation:

Relaxing 6 min simple yoga for better sleep

Other tips:

• Both meditation and yoga focuses on deep breathing techniques which i feel is the key of making you feel better. If you are lazy to move, do meditation. If you want abit of activity, do yoga.
  
• You need not follow strictly the videos, once you learn the moves and meditation techniques, can do by yourself. I find the 20min meditation too draggy and has since meditate in a way that works for me.
  
• Wake up early to do this! You'll find it quite refreshing
  
• Discipline is important. Even if you are really tired, do a simple 5 min stretching yoga. Remember, if you know and do not do, it is as good as not doing – then there is no point knowing. This post is a call to action!
  
• There are lots of free videos available online, these videos I shortlisted worked for me, but feel free to browse other videos and find something that work for you.

Hope this was useful for you
