How to have a good night sleep?



Do you have trouble falling asleep, or toss and turn in the middle of the night?
Awaken too early, or find yourself not feeling refreshed in the morning? You are not alone: millions of people struggle with falling and staying asleep.

Unless you’re suffering from a serious sleep disorder, simply improving your daytime habits and creating a better sleep environment can set the stage for good sleep. By developing a good bedtime routine and designing a plan that works with your individual needs, you can avoid common pitfalls and make simple changes that bring you consistently better sleep.

How to pervent these and have a good night sleep?

I would like to share so usefull tips with you all today>.<

Sometime, we can't help ourself to stop using our brain, especially before sleeping...thinking of what will I wanna to do tomorrow morning, which road to take to go to Petaling Jaya before 10am, what to eat the next morning, nasi lemak? roti canai? mee hoon goreng?....Actually we have to prepare ourself to sleep!!
HOW? keep our brain in peace and calm=RELAX. Put some relaxing music, wear a comfortable clothing, keep yourself calm and turn the light to dim.

After you lying down on bed, slowly, close your eyes, you can try to put a weighted sand bag on your eyes, empty your mind and focus on your breathing, slowly repeating every inhale and exhale, deeeeeeeep.....slooooooww.......and listen to it. Put yourself to SAVASANA position(lying down open your legs a bit, put your arms beside your body but not higher then your shoulder). After in the SAVASANA poses already, remember keep on focus on your breathing and relax your mind, body and soul all the way. Imagine yourself is a piece of butter, slowly melthing down, and soften your muscle.

Hope my tips can help you to improve your sleep>.<

Downward Facing Dog - Adho Mukha Svanasana


Also know as: downward facing dog/ downward dog
Type of pose: Standing, Mild Inversion, Resting
Benefits: Stretches and strengthens the whole body. Can help relieve back pain.

Downward facing dog is done many times during most yoga classes. It is a transitional pose, a resting pose and a great strengthener in its own right. It may be the first yoga pose you encounter as you begin a yoga practice. Downward dog is so prevalent, even people who have never done yoga have probably heard of it.

Instructions:

1. Come to your hands and knees with the wrists underneath the shoulders and the knees underneath the hips.

2. Curl the toes under and push back raising the hips and straightening the legs.

3. Spread the fingers and ground down from the forearms into the fingertips.

4. Outwardly rotate the upper arms broadening the collarbones.

5. Let the head hang, move the shoulder blades away from the ears towards the hips.

6. Engage the quadriceps strongly to take the weight off the arms, making this a resting pose.

7. Rotate the thighs inward, keep the tail high and sink your heels towards the floor.

8. Check that the distance between your hands and feet is correct by coming forward to a plank position. The distance between the hands and feet should be the same in these two poses. Do not step the feet toward the hands in Down Dog in order the get the heels to the floor. This will happen eventually as the muscles lengthen.

Beginners: Try bending your knees, coming up onto the balls of your feet, bringing the belly to rest on the thighs and the sit bones up high. Then sink your heels, straightening the legs keeping the high upward rotation of the sit bones. Also try bending the arms slightly out to the side, drawing the chest towards the thighs. Then restraighten the arms.

Advanced: If you are very flexible, try not to let the rib cage sink towards the floor creating a sinking spine. Draw the ribs in to maintain a flat back. Try holding the pose for five minutes, placing a block under your head for support
