@markus.moves: Better sleep, better work, better life Here’s how: Stored tension can keep you awake. Why? Because… your nervous system can’t downshift So, tight muscles send a steady “discomfort”-signal to your brain. That makes it harder to relax into rest-mode. Because… your breathing gets shallow So, when your ribs, upper back, or hips feel tight, breathing often becomes small and chesty. And your body reads that as stress and doesn’t feel “safe.” Because… your body keeps dealing with pain Even that low-grade discomfort in your lower back or hips can turn bedtime into constant micro-adjustments to find the “perfect” position that feels good. And you never fully let go. Try this instead: Before bed do these easy movements to release tension: 1️⃣ Open & Close Legs → Loosens the lower back 2️⃣ Butterfly Opens → Decompresses your spine 3️⃣ Heel-on-Toes Swing → Releases deep back tension 4️⃣ Windshield Wipers → Reduces hip tightness 5️⃣ Figure-4 Swing → Stretches hips & low back Save this routine for tonight to sleep better 💤 — Markus
