Sometimes the most effective evening habit is also the simplest: a short, repeatable ritual that helps you slow down. Here is an easy 10-minute wind-down built around a sadhu board.
The 10-minute ritual
Minutes 1–2: dim the lights and put screens away. Minutes 3–7: step gently onto the board with support, breathing slowly. Minutes 8–10: a little soft stretching or quiet breathing.
Why simple rituals work
Repeating the same calming sequence each night creates a comforting sense of routine. Keep it gentle and consistent rather than long or intense.
Tips
Use a stable surface, keep a wall within reach, and never push past comfort. This is a relaxation habit, not a performance.
