Lack of physical activity can leave you feeling lethargic, making it difficult to stay motivated and focused for the entirety of the workday. Practicing yoga not only helps stretch the muscles, but it helps boost your mood and reduce stress and anxiety. It stimulates the prefrontal lobes of your brain, where higher thinking and critical decision-making occurs. These improvements can directly translate to an increase in productivity, performance, and overall job satisfaction.

When you’ve been sitting for too long, and you’re ready for a stretch break, there are plenty of moves you can do right where you are at home.

Having a hard time purchasing dumbbells? Are they out of stock, out of your price range, or maybe they would take up too much space in your apartment?

It is no surprise that when you get into bed at the end of the day, you may feel restless and unable to relax. Your muscles need activity for proper circulation. If you’re sitting hunched at your computer, or stressed out in traffic, your aching muscles will need some help at the end of the day to relax. Every bit of exercise from stretching to meditation can help you feel better during the day and sleep better at night.

So why exactly is exercise before bed so helpful for sleep?
