Six\u00a0areas to embrace during quarantine .\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/strong>Episode IV . Exercise & Sleep Patterns<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Exercise<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Although you’re probably deprived of your regular exercise practice\u00a0in a gym, studio,\u00a0or park, and you may be missing\u00a0contact with nature,\u00a0you still need to exercise\u00a0while you’re quarantined. This makes me think of the Netflix documentary, called\u00a0\u00abEl Pepe\u00bb,<\/b>\u00a0which is based on the life of Pepe\u00a0Mujica, former president of Uruguay. While the narrator asked about his life in prison before becoming president, the first thing Pepe mentioned was this:\u00a0\u00abI started my days in my dungeon, which was about 100 square feet, walking from side to side and back and forth, until I got tired.\u00bb\u00a0<\/i><\/b>He spent seven years there, without being\u00a0permitted\u00a0even\u00a0to read books.<\/span><\/p>\n

See this as an inspiration and realize that there is\u00a0a lot\u00a0you can do at home. I would recommend three things:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022 Move, move,\u00a0dance.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022 Create a routine.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022 Raise the bar of your practice every day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, as I am a Yoga teacher, I would\u00a0strongly\u00a0recommend the practice of Yoga. \u00a0It not only\u00a0provides\u00a0a\u00a0stimulating and balanced\u00a0exercise for your body, but also a great way to calm your mind and appease your emotions.\u00a0And you can practice it within two square feet. I’ve developed online classes that you can take. You can find the necessary information in the following link. If you are interested and have financial problems, please contact me and I will grant you access to these classes based on donations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sleeping<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n

Sleep is the best way to heal our physical body. \u00a0It heals\u00a0our mind,\u00a0the intellectual center,\u00a0and heals\u00a0our heart as an emotional center. It is an unconscious process, but currently many people are having trouble sleeping. The reality is that sleep is a result:\u00a0If\u00a0you expand your consciousness, eat consciously, control your stress, work on your emotions,\u00a0and exercise, your sleep will improve. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>But, at this\u00a0historic\u00a0period\u00a0of\u00a0transition and difficulty, your sleeping\u00a0might still suffer. So, try to\u00a0work on creating a daily routine, go to sleep\u00a0by\u00a010:30pm,\u00a0and\u00a0decrease\u00a0the amount of food\u00a0eaten at\u00a0dinner. It is also important to\u00a0slow down your\u00a0activity after sunset and participate in relaxing activities. Listening to soft music, reading, taking a hot bath with salts, getting a massage with sesame oil, or drinking a glass of milk with sweet cookies, are some of the pleasures we can give ourselves to\u00a0gently ease into our\u00a0preparation\u00a0to sleep.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It may also be helpful to\u00a0modify\u00a0our\u00a0definition\u00a0of sleep.\u00a0Sleeping\u00a0is simply a different state of consciousness, so you may\u00a0benefit from exploring\u00a0sleep as a connection to the unconscious.\u00a0Exercises such as recapitulation\u00a0or\u00a0reviewing our\u00a0body awareness can help a lot at bedtime.\u00a0We can help you\u00a0with such practices, especially through Ayurvedic inquiries, please follow\u00a0this link.<\/span><\/p>\n
