<\/a>Your thirties are when you start rethinking your health. It\u2019s not as if everything suddenly falls apart at 30, but things do start to feel a bit different \u2014 junk food begins to feel heavier on your system, your jeans begin not to fit, and late nights start to take a toll on the body.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re still young, but 30 is definitely a turning point.<\/p>\n

According to Harvard Health Publishing \u2013 Ageing Overview<\/a><\/em>, the tell-tale signs of ageing often start to show in our thirties \u2014 these can be seen in everything from our vital signs like blood pressure to changes in the skin, bones and joints, and the cardiovascular, digestive, and nervous systems. Maintaining quality of life and reducing the risk of disease calls for lifestyle changes.<\/p>\n

YOGA WORKS BECAUSE IT TRAINS THE MIND<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201cSince lifestyle change requires a major shift in mindset, yoga works well because it offers many tools for mind management,” says Dr Nibedita K S, Medical Officer at the Yoga Therapy Centre Arogyadhama, SVYASA, Bengaluru.<\/p>\n

We asked her to recommend a set of yoga practices that healthy adults in their thirties could benefit from. She shared a yoga routine that includes breathing exercises, warm-ups, Surya Namaskar, asanas, pranayama, and relaxation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe sequence is designed in a way that you prepare your body and mind for a focused practice. That\u2019s why we begin with breathing exercises, so that we have complete focus,” says Dr Nibedita.<\/p>\n

While performing the sequence, make sure all practices meet these four important criteria: a) coordinated breathing, b) slow movements, c) complete awareness, and d) relaxation while doing them.<\/p>\n

DAILY YOGA ROUTINE FOR YOUR THIRTIES<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Begin with a starting prayer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Or simply sit still with your eyes closed in Sukhasana<\/em> (the Easy Pose) for three minutes. This allows you to set an intention and enter \u2018yoga mode\u2019.<\/p>\n

Breathing practices<\/strong><\/p>\n

Start with hand-stretch breathing and ankle-stretch breathing for one minute each. These improve your vital capacity (oxygen saturation).<\/p>\n

Add tiger breathing (cat-cow stretch) for another minute, for deeper benefits.<\/p>\n

Relax for a while. You could practise the Instant Relaxation Technique if you\u2019re familiar with it.<\/p>\n

Loosening exercises \u2013 5 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Warm up your body with these gentle movements.<\/p>\n

Start with the neck and move downwards. Move your neck left and right, up and down, and rotate it clockwise and anticlockwise \u2014 three times each. Bend from your waist forwards and backwards, left and right, and twist once on either side. Bend and unbend your knees. Move your ankles and toes back and forth.<\/p>\n

Surya Namaskar \u2013 5 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n

This set of poses combines asanas with breathing. Perform it three times. Then relax for a few minutes. Use the Quick Relaxation Technique if you know it.<\/p>\n

Asana Sequence \u2013 20 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n

These poses help to strengthen and stretch the muscles and increase oxygen saturation. Ensure you practise the asanas with your attention on the body, coordinating movement with breath, and observing the effects of each posture. Remember to relax after each asana.<\/p>\n
