The concern for hemophilia goes beyond just the physical complications. The constant fear of internal bleeding, the ever-encapping unpredictability, and even the long multi-step treatment cycles are very likely to bring about chronic worry and stress. Holistic practices like Yoga Nidra and mindfulness can relieve some of the emotional burdens these patients and caregivers carry, especially when it comes to increasing inner healing, according to Himalayan Siddhaa Akshar, Founder of Akshar Yoga Kendraa.
The Role of Mind-Body Communication
Holistic practices aid in the support of mind to body communication which is really important, adds Siddha Akshar. Yoga Nidra or rather yogic sleep is a type of sleep whose goal is to place the body in complete rest. It is a guided practice and enables healing on the level of emotion and nervous system. He goes on to define mindfulness which is paying attention to the moment without judgment. Mindfulness aids in managing pain and emotional stress far more productively.
Benefits of Yoga Nidra Improvement of Hemophilia
Yoga Nidra is a refined form of relaxation. It occurs in the phase immediately prior to sleep and during waking. It provides the following benefits:
Treatment of chronic stress and anxiety
Restoration sleep improves the effectiveness of physical repair.
Blood circulation and oxygen delivery to tissues is enhanced.
Emotional state is stabilized which assist in fluctuating moods.
The parasympathetic nervous system is activated leading to internal healing.
How Self-Awareness Is Enhanced Through Mindfulness
Practicing mindfulness can be a very useful strategy for individuals living with hemophilia. It assists in:
Identification of any discomfort or internal bleeding early due to increased awareness of the body
Pain and fear regulation
Enhanced self-care as real-time demands of the body are met
Reduction of guilt and stress associated with chronic illness. More self-compassion.
How To Incorporate Holistic Approaches Into Everyday Life
Yoga Nidra and mindfulness practices can be done with little guidance from outside the home. When combined with simple breathwork, they aid in regulating emotions, reducing mental fatigue, and improving life quality for those managing hemophilia.
Siddhaa Akshar advocates that ‘Yoga Nidra and mindfulness may not cure hemophilia, but assist in restoring peace, balance, and resilience. With regular practice, individuals learn to nurture mind and body to meet daily challenges with renewed strength and endurance.’
