Don't ditch hot yoga this winter!
It’s come to that time of year again where we start wearing sweaters, coats and scarves. Without realizing it, we naturally begin to hunch over to create more warmth in our mid-body (and to joyfully sip on that freshly brewed hot coffee/tea that warms our hands). Practicing yoga gives us the space to open up again. Taking time in those amazing heart and throat opening poses like fish, camel, wheel, and even upward facing dog, can help counter-act this “holiday hunch” and create more space in your physical body.
Did you know?
Hot yoga has some cold-season benefits: It raises your heart rate and core temperature, which dilates blood vessels and increases circulation in your muscles - a boon because muscles are typically stiffer in cold weather.
