Yoga is one of the most natural and rejuvenating practices that is flourishing all around the globe. Several successful people, including celebrities, emphasize the incorporation of yoga in their daily lives. There are various asanas available to keep your body and mind healthy. However, did you know that you could potentially fix your eyesight problems with the help of yoga? Removing glasses with exercises is possible. Sounds too good to be true? Well, it is true!

Holy smokes, hot yoga is something else. Now, I may be a bit dramatic, but I nearly died—or pass out, but hey, I'm dramatic. I actually enjoyed it though, after my body got used to feeling like it was on fire..

On a hard day, all you want to do is sit back and relax! After a busy Monday or an overly hectic Wednesday, you keep waiting for a Friday, we get it. Is it just me or do you also feel like you need to go for a good massage because desk jobs can be challenging to your body? If you are a lazy personality who can live on a chair, then whatever I just said doesn't mean anything to you. Anyway, if we talk about work, we must also talk about the side effects of it, that is—‘body pains' because of the change in body postures or compulsively formal body language.

Tantra is a technique used to energize and bring out the best in you. It makes you unfold events gradually and helps you connect with your body and mind. The philosophy of Tantra says that there is no energy in the world that is not present in your body and vice versa. It helps in the spiritual awakening and well being of a person physically. If you desire a stronger love from your partner, to yourself and to the world, you should try this form of yoga, and Yoga retreat in Thailand gives you this opportunity. Here are some benefits of yoga:

Slamming the door, she trapped the belt buckle. “Damn." Another minute wasted before graunching into gear and making a foot to the floor takeoff.

I was recently given the gift of yoga. Literally. For my birthday, I was given 10 yoga classes at a yoga studio, along with a yoga mat, yoga mat cleaner, and a box of salt (yes, you read that right) to condition the mat prior to using it for the first time. Sounds like a great gift, huh? It probably is, but I’m not a yoga person.

Yoga retreats are becoming quite popular these days, as they provide amazing benefits and experience to the people who go there. It is not only about bettering your physical health, but yoga retreats can also help you better your mental health, relax, and calm your inner demons. With deep relaxation, you enter the world again with better enthusiasm and gist for life.

If you practice yoga, then you already know that spending money isn’t necessarily going to be helping you live your yoga off the mat, but that, neither, is making money, or having money. But, if you’re looking to start your yoga practice, or even if you’re a regular practitioner, you know that the ways in which you spend your money will impact the way you live your yoga off the mat; and that in this current society, in this day and age, the right yoga mat, prop, or outfit can really help your physical practice of the asana.

Yoga is a physical activity that helps create mindfulness and relieves stress when you feel like you need a break from the stressful activities you encounter throughout the day.

Since I was a child, I have been dealing with depression and anxiety. For many years I have been trying to find ways to improve my own mental health. I have tried many different types of therapy and techniques, and I came across Yoga about 8 years ago, a few months before I moved to Australia. Last year I completed my first Yoga Training course, and since then, I began to be more consistent with my personal practice. I started to notice a significant improvement in all symptoms. This is the reason I became more interested in this topic.

Y​oga is more than a workout and pretzel postures. I started going to "yoga" classes to bring balance to the distance running I was doing and to learn how to properly stretch my tight hips. What I found was way more than a stretch. Between 2013 and 2015, I went intermittently to studios around Phoenix, Arizona. In summer 2016, I met Carlyn Sikes, certified Iyengar Intermediate Jr II Yoga Teacher who made me feel welcome on the first visit. The Iyengar Center of Scottsdale at Scottsdale Community Collegequickly became my home away from home yoga retreat while I learned how to build confidence in a home practice. They featured yoga asana (posture) classes, while in contrast to other studios in the area, no two class sequences were alike and my wrists were relieved when I learned how to practice a sun salutation without dumping weight into the wrists, shoulders, or lower back. I learned how to properly extend my legs and how my inner thighs had more to do with my core strength than I originally thought. It's not solely about perfection in any posture or movement, but how you show up and how you support the postures given with a steady intelligent action from the outer body inwards. They weave the philosophy of yoga and the eight limbs into each piece of the process. Every time I practice with the incredible yoga teachers here, I discover facets of myself that have become buried and covered in mental cobwebs.

At the start of this year, I decided I wanted to try yoga. My reasoning was nothing but shallow. I wanted to improve my flexibility and shed a few kilos, and that was it. What I didn't expect was the transformation it will have on my well-being. Here’s a list of all the lessons I learned from yoga that has seeped into my daily life.
