7 yoga positions that will calm you down (even if you're too stressed)

We all deserve time to relax! If you have been stressed out or simply feel tense after a hard day, then time for calm.

One of the techniques for more relaxation is certainly yoga. Positions help alleviate stress and anxiety by activating the body's relaxed state.

Slow breathing serves as a catalyst for activating the presympathic nervous system, which is precisely related to the quiet state. Suddenly, the entire body enters another condition.

According to Yoga Journal, these are the seven positions you should be practicing when you haven't had your best day:

1. Paschimottanana

2. Malasana 

3. Balasana

4. Viparita Karani 

5. Sukhasana

6. Matsyasana

7. Savasana
