Before starting a new day full of energy, we should listen to our own voices first, so that our bodies can really wake up and be full of energy.
Posture: Sit cross-legged on a blanket or towel. The most important thing is to keep your back straight.
Specific practice: exhale the air from the lungs, block the right nostril with your right hand, and take a deep breath with your left nostril. After holding your breath for 40 seconds, block your left nostril with your right hand and exhale the air in your body with your right nostril. After this group of actions, reverse the order of nostril breathing: inhale through the right nostril first, and then exhale through the left nostril.
Suggestion: This set of movements can be done once every morning or twice a week. Repeat this routine for 5 minutes during each exercise.

This step is mainly to release the pressure on the abdomen and make the body organs work better.
Posture: Stand with your feet apart and hip width apart.

Step 5: Meditate.
As the last step in all yoga exercises, meditation allows you to focus on your breathing.
Posture: Sit cross-legged, with your back straight and your eyes closed.
How to do it: Imagine that every time you inhale, you will make a "so" sound, and every time you exhale, you will make a "ham" sound.
