THE DAILY CHECK-IN
3.21
WORKOUT: YIN YOGA
This type of yoga is like acupuncture without needles.
Aim to hold each pose for at least five minutes (on both sides when applicable) to release connective tissue, get a deep stretch, and promote energy flow.
Butterfly pose
Sleeping swan pose
Square pose
Shoelace pose
Boost your immunity with this golden milk latte recipe inspired by the in-room dining menu at The Equinox Hotel.
It contains anti-inflammatory turmeric and raw honey, which has antibacterial properties. Add a dash of ground ginger (or a slice of fresh) for digestive benefits.
- Steam 1 cup almond milk and pour into a mug.
- Stir in ½ teaspoon ground turmeric and 1 teaspoon raw honey. Serve immediately.
TRY D.I.Y. SHIATSU
Massaging this point can create feelings of joy or pleasure, calm the mind and body, and bring awareness to your breath.
Press your right thumb onto the pressure point about an inch below the base of your pointer and middle fingers (close to where the lines on many people’s palms meet) on your left hand, then close your left hand around your thumb.
Hold for a count of 10 or until your anxiety subsides, then repeat on the other hand.
TALK WITH YOUR BODY
It can speak louder than words. Make your connections more meaningful by doing this every time you have a conversation:
- Make eye contact.
- Uncross your arms.
- Point your toes toward the other person.
- Square your shoulders.
- Keep your nose in neutral (rather than tilted up or down).
