Attain well-being with a 20-minute power yoga morning routine.

Your day is a sequence of incidents and activities that keep you occupied. At the end, you might just feel like rushing back home and giving your body adequate rest. But what about the chores at home? Well, it needs more energy! Taking caffeine shots or having energy drinks is not a solution for a power-packed self. Such drinks are not only addictive but also harm your whole inner balance and overall health. Too much caffeine and unnatural ways can harm your mental and physical health silently.

Now, what to do for a powerful day? Start Power Yoga!

A great 20-minute power yoga sequence is a proven way practiced for a long time to attain good energy for the whole day. We are all trapped in a routine where we barely get time to recharge. Lack of breaks makes our lives sedentary, which in turn affects our health. Poor hydration, poor sleep, too much screen time, poor food habits, and a lot of reliance on modern medicines affect the body in the long run! So, this is the right time to return to our natural roots and heal without medicines. Yoga can be very effective if performed daily as a routine.

What is Power Yoga?

Power Yoga is a modern sequence of traditional yoga practices and asanas, which makes it a quick-changing routine. This is a fast-flowing yoga sequence for a fast-moving lifestyle. When we have limited time for ourselves, we can practice power yoga, as it gives us the benefits of multiple yoga asanas in less time.

Inspired by Vinyasa and Ashtanga flows, power yoga is a customisation of the sequence as per the requirements of an individual. You can take up your favourite poses and make up a good routine, having multiple transitions and attain the health benefits. If you are a beginner, please seek the help of an experienced yoga practitioner, as yoga needs methodology. You can reap the full benefits of yoga only if you are practising the right poses in the right way!

Power yoga is a powerful routine, and it helps you with instant energy, good immunity, great flexibility, wonderful body stretch, calm and peaceful mental health, and overall well-being. The only way is to be consistent in your practice. Well, customisation doesn’t mean mixing and matching any random yoga pose. The power yoga has flows which are relatable and easy to change, every added pose has a meaning and purpose behind it, and every sequence is crafted to be safe and easily achievable.
