Perimenopause Tip #1

I get asked about perimenopause more than any other topic.

Here is Kundalini yoga tip #1 for dealing with it:

Everything goes out of balance as the body transitions.

If you keep that in mind, minute by minute, yoga is your best friend because what is yoga? Balance, returning the body, and mind to stillness which means good health and ease.

Try this quick fix as a way to reset your autonomic nervous system which will, in turn, fix your cardiovascular system, digestive & respiratory systems, glands and secretions, body temperature, stress levels, focus, and sleep patterns.

Total Balance Practice

Sit with your back straight anyway that feels comfortable. Set a timer for 3 minutes.

Leave your left hand in your lap and extend your right arm out to the side, about 60 degrees from the horizontal. Fingers and thumbs together. Flatten your hand towards the ceiling, stretching the inside of the wrist, and compressing the other. Let your breath settle and hold for 3 minutes.

*** Make sure your arm is straight & you feel a pull into your underarm – this is an insertion point for the autonomic nervous system (ie you can change your stress levels here. Make sure as well that you pull the hand flat too so you trigger meridians in the wrist and arm relating to stress, heart, and digestion) ***
