Boost Your Health By Doing "Beditation"
Finally - a fitness routine for those of us who have trouble getting out of bed.
You don't have to leave the comfort of your cradle to achieve good health, according to wellness leader Pilin Anice, who paired up with the DreamCloud mattress company to spread the word about "beditation," designed to balance and restore your body through breath work and various poses.
"Beditation is a way to be good to yourself, to take time to pause in our busy life by appreciating and acknowledging the power of aligning mind and body," notes a press release.
The 12-step method (see below) promises to "quiet the mind, soothe the nervous system, release tension to enhance the ability to get a good night's sleep, and teaches poses and stretches you can easily practice from the comfort of your own bed."
