Restorative yoga with instructions (20 minutes)
A restorative practice means minimum effort on your part with the maximum benefit for the body and mind. Using props and support, so that you can stay in poses for longer without any strain or effort, totally surrendering to gravity and letting everything drop. It's hitting a "pause" button to breathe more deeply, while the restorative yoga poses (asanas) gently open the body in a unrushed and gentle manner, helping us to learn to relax and rest deeply and completely. During this kind of deep relaxation, all the organ systems of the body are benefited, the mind slows down, the breathing finds it's natural rhythm.
You will need a blanket, a big pillow (possibly 2) and something to cover your eyes.

Frequently, people's plans to lose weight fall by the wayside because they simply don't know how to go about it. These tips will provide you with ways to keep exercise fun.
Too many people work out in complete silence. How boring! Music is excellent for improving your mood. It motivates you to keep exercising and gives you a rhythm to follow. This allows you to take your mind away from exercise and make the overall experience more enjoyable.
Working out with a friend is ideal. Fool yourself into forgetting you are exercising by striking up a fun and engaging conversation with your fitness partner. Exercising with a friend raises the fun factor, which means you will enjoy your workout more.
Video game workouts are another tool you can put in your exercise arsenal. This is another option that will help you to stay motivated and not let fatigue take over during a workout. When participating in the video game, your focus will not be on the workout, but on how much fun you are having. Your energy will not drop as much, which will allow you to continue exercising for a longer period of time.
Be sure to choose exercise clothes that flatter and fit your body perfectly. This is a great motivation for exercise. There are an endless number of colors and styles of workout clothing available. Proper workout clothing will help in motivating you to go out and exercise.
It is very possible to be bored by exercise if you do the same routine everyday. Boredom is one of the greatest challenges you'll face. Alternating routines is a great way for you to have fun with your workout routine and stay motivated. Motivation can only be retained by a regular desire to achieve your goals. If exercise isn't enjoyable, you will lose motivation and quit. Once you stop working out, it is hard to get the motivation to do it again.
When you have reached a goal, give yourself a treat. You don't have to break your budget to find a great reward, as long as it's something you look forward to attaining. To reward yourself, buy a small chocolate bar or a book you have been wanting. Choose something that you really have been wanting to do. Working for something you really want will give you more motivation.
It is unnecessary to view exercise as little more than a painful, sweaty experience. Fun can be possible, especially if you know some great ways to spice up your exercise routines. With the tips that are outlined below, you will be able to make exercising a fun experience.
