Struggling with Daily Routines? Try Micro-Practices

"This week I am going to wake up early and get my sunrise yoga in, followed by a breathing exercise and meditation. And after my workday I’ll head to the gym. This will be the week I get consistent with my morning routine and wellness practices and I will feel so much better!” … sound familiar?

It’s great to have ambition when it comes to your wellness practices; there is always room for improvement. But being too ambitious can be counterproductive. We might have a sudden inspiration and jump into a new regimen, but our enthusiasm can last for only a short period of time. There’s no doubt that you can get a routine flowing where you’re practicing these things regularly but getting to that point takes time. It’s important to be gentle on yourself and start with small changes.

Eddie Stern, yoga teacher, author, lecturer, and dear friend from New York City has long been advising for the use of micro-practices to overcome these obstacles. So, what is a micro-practice? Micro-practices are short, easy and isolated practices that are to be completed each day, so you don't overextend yourself.

“Let’s face it, starting a yoga or meditation practice can be hard. Not everyone can find the time for a yoga class every day. But everyone has at least one or two minutes they can give themselves each day to become grounded, more focused, to take a short pause.” - Eddie Stern

Eddie is known for his expertise in Ashtanga Yoga and his dedication to providing new ways for people to access simple and effective yoga and meditation practices. We have partnered with Eddie Stern to create the YOGA365 app, a tool specifically designed to provide a full year of guided micro-practices for creating positive habits on a daily basis. YOGA365 will be your go-to for a break, some deep breathing, a short meditation, or an inspirational thought. When you consciously develop and maintain routines, you will steadily move closer to the goals you want to achieve.

Join us and the YOGA365 community, get ready for the app’s launch on January 1st, 2021. Learn more here: https://yoga365.online/
