Then there are the really noticeable physical benefits. Number 1: I have less tension in my neck. Normally I can feel a pinching sensation almost every day when I’m sitting in front of the PC or carrying my little one around in my arms.
Number 2: I’ve noticed that I’m getting stronger overall. It’s only small changes, but they show up clearly. For example, the more toned abdominal muscles make me sit more upright, and my upper arms are more.

How to get started
Thinking of trying a daily yoga challenge yourself? I highly recommend it. Everyone can find 5 to 30 minutes of time in their day and it helps with so many problems.
Start as a beginner
Is yoga easy? Not necessarily. According to studies, yoga is the sport where the most mistakes happen. So, in the beginning, it can be useful to take a professional beginner’s class.
Join a group yoga challenge
If you struggle with sticking to an exercise regime, then sign up for a yoga challenge. I followed a newsletter from YouTuber Mady Morrison; she has great videos that are easy to fit into your daily routine.
Keep a diary
Record how your daily yoga practice makes you feel in a journal. If you have clear goals and benefits in mind, it’s easier to stick with it.
Yoga experience: My verdict
Honestly, of all my challenges – from switching to a vegan diet or exercising every day – the yoga challenge was definitely the best! Why? Mainly because it’s super time-efficient.
You don’t need much for yoga. A mat (a rug or the floor would do), something comfortable to wear, and you’re good to go. Time? You don’t need much of that either – for me, an average of 20 minutes was enough. That said, sometimes the day only allowed for five minutes and sometimes I was able to push it to 45 minutes.
Best of all, for this minimal time investment, you get a load of benefits. For me, these included notably less neck pain, less stress and a better quality of life.
I don’t want to do without any of those things in future. So giving myself me-time with yoga is something I’ll definitely keep doing.
