Yoga and meditation are proven methods to release stress. Try Pittra Kriya and Long Sat Nam's. Breathe, relax, and give yourself a break. 


And did you know that whistling releases stress? It relaxes you inside and out and creates balance. Whistle every day for three minutes, relax all the tension and stress out of you, and have a bit of fun. 


Take care of body, mind, and spirit.

Pittra Kriya

Practice this kriya for 33 minutes a day to alleviate stress in your life. Part 1 is especially fantastic for releasing stress. It has a long history in India. When people were filled with grief over the death of a loved one or a tragedy of some sort, they did this first exercise standing in a river. Rivers were seen as the flow of life, as sacred and healing. They would toss the water over their shoulder. 


The yogis knew that the brain had to be restarted, broken out of the frozen state that stress produces. This kriya works best if practiced regularly for a while. Even if you do this practice without a river and without belief in anything but your own Infinite Self, it works wonders.
