The Evening Practice: 21 Evenings of Yoga for Rest
Gentle sequences of 10 to 20 minutes, minute by minute, with the long out-breath, bhrāmarī, a screen-off ritual, a 21-night sleep journal and seven cards to print
Make the end of the day a real threshold. For three weeks, you follow one evening practice a night, from ten to twenty minutes: postures on the floor, against the wall or in bed, the long out-breath, the humming bee, counting down, soft japa and a short guided release written for this book. You learn what the Gita, Patañjali and the Māṇḍūkya say about sleep, what sleep medicine recommends, which signs call for a doctor, and what the studies on yoga and sleep really show, each checked on PubMed.
