LONG COMMUTES
Yoga - The stress buils anxiety. Chanting something, deep conscious breathing or the Hridayamudra help heal the heart.
Hridaya Mudra
This mudra diverts the flow of energy from the hands to the heart area. The middle and ring fingers relate directly to nadis connected to the heart, while the thumb closes the pranic circuit and acts as an energiser, diverting the flow of prana from the hands to these nadis. Hridaya mudra helps to release pent up emotion and unburden the heart.
Cardio - Daily stress all adds up. reading or listening to music take your mind off the stress and soothes.
Endo - If your commute involves a brisk walk, it is good. If the commute is more than one hour it cuts down your sleep time, is a sedentary activity and adds to hypertension. Listen to music - it lessens stress.
Psych - Long commutes can result in high blood pressure, anger and resentment. The key is to take your mind off it - enjoy music or the view around to relax.
