Yoga for Test/ Meeting Prep

Feeling anxious?  Big test or meeting coming up?  

Try these yoga poses and breathing techniques before your big moment to create clarity and calm of the mind. 

  1. Mountain pose

    This is a power stance to build confidence and awaken the body.

2. Forward fold

Inversions are great for calming the nervous system.

3. Tree pose

Finding your balance creates a mental focus that is perfect to use right before test-taking. 

Hold the posture that you choose for at least 3 rounds. 

  • Inhale for 6 counts 

  • Hold for 6 counts 

  • Exhale for six counts

This breathing technique combined with these specific poses will bring all of your awareness to your breath, therefore the present moment.  Concentration is difficult when your mind is anticipating something else or anxiety in general.  

Coming into the present moment allows for you to find your mental focus and clarity to ace that test or do amazing in that meeting!

Try one of these poses before a big moment coming up,
let me know if you were able to feel more grounded!
