17 Feb Is yoga for you?

THE BENEFITS OFF AND ON THE MAT

We all know yoga is good for us. The benefits both on and off the mat are life changing.

Often life gets busy, other things in our life consume us and we forget to give back to ourselves. We believe yoga is a lifestyle choice, not something you should do just to show off your newest Lululemon outfit. So today, make time for your mind, body and spirit.

Here are just a handful of reasons you should be on the mat regularly.

OVERALL FITNESS

You are truly healthy when you are not just physically fit but also mentally and emotionally balanced. Including yoga in your daily routine will build a body that is strong, toned and flexible.

STRESS LESS + BOOST IMMUNITY

The mind is constantly involved in activity, rarely staying in the present. A daily practice can be a great way to get rid of stress that accumulates daily. Yoga helps to detox the body and de-stress the mind. Breathing techniques and meditation are also known to reduce stress and improve immunity.

INCREASE ENERGY

Practicing yoga increases blood flow and stimulates the mind, providing the yogi secret to feeling revitalized and energetic!

HEALTHIER RELATIONSHIPS + BOOST SEX LIFE

A mind that is relaxed, happy and content is better able to deal with sensitive relationship issues. In terms of having a better sex life, endurance… need we say more?

INCREASE FLEXIBILITY AND POSTURE

Regular yoga practice stretches and tones muscles keeping them strong and lean. Your posture will also improve when you stand, sit, sleep and walk. This in turn, helps to relieve your body of pain.

So be kind to your body, it’s the only place you have to live.

Namaste.
