Yoga is good for the soul...

As an amature Yogi, I have found that Yoga is definitely the best medicine for your mind, body and soul. I cannot talk enough about the benefits that can be found from an hour of yoga.

Most recently I’ve started attending hot yoga classes, in which the room is heated to 90 degrees. While it is challenging it is definitely rewarding. After an hour of yoga not only is your mind clear from the thoughts of the day, but your body feels stretched and relaxed.

When I began yoga I could barely hold a down dog for 20 seconds (the most basic of yoga moves), now i’m able to hold and complete a number of more challenging moves in that 60 minute time period.

Is hot yoga for everyone? Probably not at first. Amature yogi’s should start with a class that is more about learning your body and figuring out how to complete yoga stretches with good form.
If you’re looking for a new challenge, or just looking to take a mental vacation look for yoga studios in your area!

Good luck and Happy Wednesday!
