Wake Up With Sun Salutations for a Better Day

When I worked nights for decades, I used Sun Salutations when I rose at 3pm for my night shift to attune to my breath, focus my mind and give my body the cue that this was our morning. You get not only exercise, but ideally balanced movement, versatile, portable and customizable. I also used Sun Salutations to keep awake at night at times. The movements open and close the body, create core strength and connection (Hello, Plank!), get you up side down (and you, Down Dog!), back bends and forward folds follow easily on one another. The meditative aspect of the flow helps to focus and calm the mind.
