Do you ever wonder why yoga is so popular? Or do you have an unconvinced client that you believe would benefit from yoga practice?
Yoga is a healing, strengthening, calming, and empowering practice that offers something for everybody, regardless of their age, gender, race, size, shape, background, and fitness level!
Here are our top 5 reasons yoga is for everyone and the perfect addition to your fitness and wellness routine.
1. Yoga is a Great Way to Strengthen the Body and Gain Flexibility
When you practice yoga, you use your body to support yourself in different postures. Yoga can truly help you develop strength by using your core to support yourself and by engaging your muscles actively to keep yourself in a pose.
Yoga will definitely limber you up and helps you tap into your flexibility.
When you start a yoga practice, it’s all about stretching your own limitations. You will find that the breath helps you go deeper into each posture and you open up more every day. It’s a process and it takes time, but you will see the progress the more you practice.
2. Yoga is Portable and Can be Done Anywhere, Anytime
All you need is your body and breath to practice yoga. Mats are easy to tote, but you can also just use a towel or even the floor. You don’t need any fancy equipment to do yoga, and it’s amazing to be anywhere in the world or even just at your desk chair and be able to break out a few yoga poses.
3. Yoga is Non-Competitive and Adaptable to Every Shape, Size, Gender, and Age
Because yoga isn’t one size fits all, you can adapt it to your own body. There is a basic outline and alignment for each posture, but it’s also about listening to your own body and moving from within.
4. Yoga is Low Impact and Something You Can do for the Rest of Your Life
Yoga is a low impact workout that lubricates the joints and massages the muscles. You can practice yoga for your entire life and use it as an aid for staying young and agile.
5. Yoga is Empowering
Yoga helps you tune in to your own instincts and lead from your heart and gut. You will learn to listen to your inner voice and trust in yourself. Yoga is all about being powerful and kind.
