Thank goodness for yoga! I have suffered from Restless Legs Syndrome (or the sensory neurological condition Willis-Ekbom, to give it it’s fancy medical definition) for 20 years (apparently one in 10 UK adults are sufferers). Horrific hours spent agitated in bed like a demented Irish Riverdance performance; nothing short of nightly torture, which has had its toll on me, both physically and mentally. Heat, cold, walking, massage, painkillers, TENS machines, CBD oil, vitamin D, iron — the remedies I’ve tried in desperation are endless. But with half an hour of yoga practice before bed, I can get my body where it needs to be to allow me that precious window of opportunity to fall asleep. Yoga — and OM magazine — have become an essential part of my life. I feel strongly this is an important message to pass onto your readers. Huge thanks for a mint magazine.
