Yoga addresses insomnia by calming the Manas (mind) and relaxing the Prana (life energy). Before bed, try a Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) practice: Lie on your back in Savasana (Corpse Pose) and listen to a guided relaxation that scans the body from head to toe. Combine this with Chandra Bhedana Pranayama (moon-piercing breath): Close your right nostril with your thumb, inhale deeply through your left nostril, and exhale through the right. Repeat for 5-10 minutes to cool the body and prepare for rest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"619\" height=\"594\" src=\"https:\/\/yogamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/july-2025_165.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15343\" style=\"width:584px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/july-2025_165.jpg 619w, https:\/\/yogamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/july-2025_165-300x288.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 619px) 100vw, 619px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q: Redundancy from my job has caused a lot of stress for me.
