List of Meditation after workout Activities
After having a strong workout session, your heart rate goes crazy. You can take another five minutes to give your body the rest that it needs. Just lie down wherever you are with your legs and arms apart. Let your arms be slightly away from the body, palms facing the ceiling. Close your eyes and, with one long exhale, release the weight of your body into the mat. Feel a sense of grounding into the surface completely under you. At this point, if there is any thought under your head, simply with the next exhalation, breathe all the thoughts out. Empty your lungs, empty your mind. Now, try to slow down the pace of your breathing as much as you comfortably can. Following a trainer's instructions, inhale during the count of 1, 2, 3 and then exhale 1, 2, 3. Inhale once again- 1, 2, 3. Exhale- 1, 2 and 3. Notice your chest expand upwards as you breathe in. And then exhale. Now, notice your chest expand sideways as you breathe and let it deflate as you exhale out. Now notice the upper back expanding into the ground as you breathe. Keep breathing like this now for a few seconds on your own. Now bring your awareness to your face. Relax the face, especially the skin on your forehead. Soften your eyes, relax the cheeks, Relax the jaws. Allow the abdomen to relax. Let it loose. Now bring your attention to the skin. Feel the touch of the air on your skin. Check the taste in your mouth and listen to the sound of your breath. Now sit down in either Sukhaasan, Padmasan or Vajrasan, whichever is a comfortable meditative pose and close your eyes. Focus on your breath. Observe how deep and long your natural breath has become after the workout and primary meditation. Perform the first Pranayam exercise- Anulom Vilom. Close one of your left nostrils with your right hand (last three fingers) and take a breath from your right nostril; now close your right nostril with the thumb of your right hand and exhale from your left nostril.

Start Small- You must remember that you cannot perform long meditation after workout exercises right at the beginning of your meditation journey.

But if you are comfortable with 8 times, that's good enough. Don't unnecessarily push yourself beyond that point. Go slow and steady, not fast and furious. Follow a routine- Be a creature of habit. Like you brush twice every day, workout every day, similarly you must do Meditation before or after exercise every day, preferably at the same time. This way, you will also notice that not meditating for a day makes you feel that something was missing. That's what habit does to you. Be easy on yourself if you miss- if you miss a session or even multiple sessions, don't beat yourself for it. Pick up from where you left and carry on. Implement change- Monotony is boring. Ask your Meditation before or after exercise instructor to incorporate change. Focus on breath one day and do imagery meditation the next day. The third-day Mantra Meditation can be done. This way, there would be some variety in your Meditation before or after exercise, and you'll not lose interest. Create a meditation space at home- On the days you're unable to go to the studio for a workout, do your Meditation after workout at home.
