Many factors including stress, smoking, eating habits, medications, etc. have an impact on your sleeping pattern and can affect you sleep hours.
If you are keeping awake during your sleep hours, then doing these low-impact exercises with full-body stretches can help you get a good night's sleep.
So, let’s explore some exercises that don’t raise your adrenaline much but add the exact impact to make your body and mind fall into a deep sleep.
Plank: A good full-body exercise option, it requires a strong core. Start from a plank position while maintaining a straight line from head to heels and focusing on your breathing.
Child’s Pose: Great for the lower back and hips, it can be done by sitting on the floor with your knees under your thighs. Then bend your torso forward and rest it on your thighs with your arms extended overhead.
Glute bridge: A low-impact exercise, it can be done by lying flat on the floor. Then slowly raise your hips while keeping your knees bent and resting on the floor. Do it slowly with control for more benefits.
Bird-dog: A little challenging one, it works for stability and core strength. Start from the all-fours position. Then slowly start raising your left leg and right arm at a time until they are parallel to the floor.
Figure-4 stretch: Good for hips, glutes, and lower back, here you have to start by lying flat on the surface with your knees bent and foot on the floor. Then bring your right ankle to your left knee, hold your left hamstring and pull it back.
These exercises are easy to do with effective benefits. However, consulting with health experts in case of any serious health issues is always advisable.
