A Calmer Start to My Day

Mornings were chaos, my hyperactive mind racing, kids buzzing, work looming.

Yoga changed everything. Twenty minutes of stretching and breathing sets a calm, happy tone.

My kids join in (because they love disturbing their dad), and we’ve all reaped rewards.

Yoga’s perfect for anxious minds, mental health challenges, or neurodiverse conditions.

My Yoga Journey

Workplace yoga workshops sparked my interest about a year ago, I was desperate for a calm mind amid parenting and work life stress.

Then a favorite gaming streamer, opened up about their mental health challenges, and how yoga helped them mentally and physically.

I suspect they’re also neurodivergent. It inspired me to dive deeper.

Their passion hooked me. Now, my 20-minute morning routine of strecthes and breathing are non-negotiable.

My kids love the Tree Pose, it’s calming for their energetic spirits! Yoga’s our family ritual, calming minds and bonding us.

Why yoga works wonders

1) Tames Anxious Minds

Yoga calms racing thoughts. Studies show it boosts calming brain chemicals, reducing anxiety in 12 weeks. Child’s Pose quiets my mind.

2) Lifts Mood

Yoga increases serotonin, easing depression, PTSD. I’m happier post-session; my streamer credits yoga for emotional lifts. For autism, it fosters balance

3) Sharpens Clarity

A 2019 study says yoga rewires brains for attention, great for work focus. For ADHD, autism, mindfulness anchors attention

4) Improves Sleep

Johns Hopkins, a world-renowned medical research institution, confirms yoga promotes deeper sleep by calming stress hormones.

Their studies show consistent bedtime routines, like an evening Legs-Up-the-Wall pose, can help you:

• Fall asleep faster

• Rest better

Easing anxiety for neurodiverse folks.

5) Build Resilience

Studies show yoga empowers stress management. Family sessions bond us; for PTSD, autism, yoga’s safe space processes emotions
