Unwind Your Workday
CYP Weekly Plan: A Little, Often
•
6m 23s
Create space between your work and your rest so that you can effectively transition into the rest of your day and optimize your rest and recovery.
Use this Reset to unwind the postural imbalances that accompany long stretches at your desk — tech neck, stiff chest, sore back — calm your nervous system, and support yourself to truly leave work at work and move into what’s next with your full attention.
Take your practice further this week:
• Challenge yourself to create intentional transitions throughout your day. Set a timer 10 - 15 before your next thing starts and move your body, get a drink of water, and set your intentions for the task or activity ahead. >> Using a video from 5-Minute Reset or Use Yoga Fast Collections are accessible ways to create transition. You’ll find a few short Resets to use here in this collection as well.
