Challenges of including these practices in your routine

Doing yoga, meditation and Pranayama is a very good strategy for living a more peaceful and present life. At first, it is a little challenging to incorporate these practices into your daily life, due to the difficulty of establishing new habits and the initial discomfort that these practices bring.

When we are used to a very agitated mind and very little connection with our body, Yoga, Meditation and Pranayama practices are extremely challenging at first. Practicing Yoga exercises makes you notice different discomforts in your body, and pay close attention to all sensations, your breathing and your limits.

Also, practicing meditation makes us focus our attention on our breathing and makes us develop the practice of not feeding our thoughts for a calmer mind. Which is a skill that will positively impact your life beyond meditation. Besides, sometimes we need to learn to let our thoughts and feelings pass.

Despite the difficulty of calming the mind, you need to set your intention and understand the importance of adding these practices into your routine. It also gets easier and easier with practice and the benefits are incredible. Insist and set your intention!
