We all reach a point in our day when we'd love to just sit down and take a second of rest to catch up on exactly what is happening in our lives, or maybe just catch up on some sleep. I often choose the latter option, but recently replaced these occasional naps with yoga time.
When I substitute my nap for yoga, i feel more rested and alert for the rest of the day. I get a chance to consciously reflect on myself and how I feel, and that beats hitting the snooze button six times while laying in bed.
After a 30 minute asana practice, I put my shoes back on, roll up my mat, and continue on with renewed vigor and energy, thankful that I don't have to deal with bed-head.
It is good you have realized this about yoga already.
