Do you RUN? Improve your times with YOGA!

Stretch & Breathe

You may be able to bench press an elephant, run a marathon, get through reading The Power of Now and drink a kale shake without retching, but here’s a test of your real strength: have you ever held a reverse warrior for 30 breaths? For some reason, the cliches around yoga have proved hard to shake. Those who've practiced it know yoga is not just for women wearing Lululemon and the odd hippy, and it certainly isn’t easy. It will not balance your ying with your yang or align your seven chakras in a week, either. 

 

If these stereotypes have kept you away, we think it's time you gave yoga another chance. 

 

Whether it’s your mental or physical strength that you would like to boost, regular practise will yield great results.

A Trial Yoga Day (with my friends ;) )

Are you tired of seeing yet another tropical yoga vacation retreat postcard hanging outside the door of your local yoga studio?  You know the one – there’s the beautiful woman doing ‘yoga-on-the-beach-wearing-sunglasses-under-a-palm-tree-drinking-a-pina-colada,’  and you’re like, “Will I ever afford a retreat like that??”

Well, well, well - me and my friends decided to have a few-hours Yoga Day yesterday and it went really good. The day felt authentic. Through our yoga practice in a studio, we learned the Single Nostril Breathing Technique, we continued with a Hatha Flow and then did Power Yoga. After all the hard work, there was a loooong meditation and healthy food to eat - we talked what effects has healthy food on our lives and mentioned a bit of philosophy and history of Yoga. It was great to see friends from different parts of world connected, taking the time to cultivate self-care while adhering to a busy schedule.  I found it to be a great opportunity to learn about other people’s lives different from mine with the added opportunity of networking.

The one-day retreat is becoming more and more popular as people seek balance in their lives.  As we strive in a fast-paced society, scheduling in a day of rejuvenation where you can sit back and be taken care of is like pressing the restart button.  You don’t need to save up thousands of pounds or plan in advance to take a week off from work to go on a one-day retreat.  It’s a simple way to bring the balance of staying true to your yoga practice and treating yourself to something special without dramatically altering your schedule. 

This Yoga Day was a trial one and because I think it was very successful,  I am preparing more retreat days, so if anyone is interested, contact me :)
