3 Reasons Why You Should Take Up Yoga

Let me see you do that Yoga, now let me see you flex!

We understand that you want to get your summer body ready without breaking a sweat and facing the extreme pressure of summer body goals at the gym. If you crave more of what feels good, what agrees with your pace and is more self-soothing then yoga is the perfect solution for you. 

 

Naturally we are letting you in on 3 reasons why you should take up this sport, and believe us when we say they are effective too: 

1. Improves metabolism allowing you to shed extra weight whilst simultaneously toning and shaping your body!

 

Although they may look complex and complicated, all you need is continuous practise to master any yoga posture and you’ll be well on your way to boosting your metabolism. Combined with a healthy diet suited for your body and vitality, your metabolism rate is now under your control.

 

Bonus! Yoga has the power to help you lose weight by balancing the body’s metabolism. Rather focusing on breathing and controlled exercises, yoga is as effective as working out at the gym, without sweating out at the gym. Yoga increases your flexibility, thereby facilitating loss of unwanted flab from those stubborn areas. An especially stubborn area that yoga helps combat is your abdomen. As yoga primarily strengthens your core, you have the added benefit of a toned torso as well as incredible posture. 

 

 

2. Inexpensive anti-aging treatment + Glowing radiant skin

Sure, we can’t stop our bodies from aging, but the least we can do is keep it healthy and detoxified. Yoga, alongside Ayurveda, offers amazing techniques to treat wrinkles and patches that may come with age. These techniques cleanse the body from the inside out and assist in the rejuvenation process. Hence, yoga is not about creak-free joints and a supple spine alone; yoga flushes out toxins leaving you with glowing and radiant skin. 

 

3. Peace of mind

A healthy body is home to a healthy mind. Yoga is the path to understanding your body and mind better. Regular practise of yoga brings focus, skill in action and emotional balance to one’s life. Calming ad rejuvenating your mind, yoga empowers you to journey through life in a better and healthier way. You will now be more receptive to finding solution to problems rationally, in a logical and proactive manner. Simply meditating for a few minutes wherever you may be when faced with a stressful situation does wonders for keeping you both focused and happy. Yoga has the power to assist in the redirection and redistribution of negative energy in a workable manner as you learn to be in-tune with your mind, body and soul.

 

Namaste.
