The Benefits of Doing Yoga While on Vacation

Posted on by

Yoga Classes When on Vacation If you’re going on vacation soon, you might be looking forward to spending a few days eating, lounging, and doing nothing at all. Nevertheless, in addition to doing those things, you should also consider taking part in some yoga classes while you’re away. There are many benefits you’ll experience by making time for yoga while you’re on vacation. Check out a few of them below.

Reduces stress

Do you feel stressed out almost all the time? This can really take a toll on both your body and mind. The good news is that vacationing alone will remove some of the stress you feel from your life. However, if you really want to take it to the next level, yoga classes have been shown to reduce the stress that people feel even further. After a yoga class, you’ll often feel more relaxed and sharper overall.

Improves circulation

When you travel, you usually spend at least some time cooped up inside of an airplane, a train, or a car. This can cause pressure to build up in your joints and restrict the blood flow throughout your body. Yoga will release some of that pressure and improve your circulation almost immediately. This will make you feel better than you would otherwise and allow you to slip right into a state of relaxation.

Curbs hunger

Those who travel usually snack a lot since they don’t always get a chance to sit down and eat full meals. They also snack because they’re tired and lethargic from running around during their busy days. Yoga classes can help you sleep better at night, which will give you more energy and curb many of the hunger cravings you feel throughout the day as you’re traveling. It’ll prevent you from packing on unnecessary pounds on your next vacation.

Yoga Continues to Grow in Popularity

Posted on by

Yoga is one of those trends that just won’t let go. In America alone, it’s become one of the most popular forms of exercise, with studios popping up in towns across the country. Whether you’re a newcomer to the practice or a seasoned expert, there are plenty of reasons to enjoy this strengthening and relaxing form of exercise.

Yoga ClassBut don’t take our word for it! A few weeks ago, Forbes posted an article detailing yoga’s rise to fame an popularity in this country. According to the article, a study that was recently performed by Yoga Alliance and Yoga Journal surveyed about 2,000 members of the general population, as well as 1,700 yoga practitioners. The data collected revealed some interesting numbers: In 2016 alone, 80 million Americans are likely to try yoga for the first time, while 36.7 million people are already practicing yoga regularly – an increase of about 16 million people since 2012.

So why is this practice so popular? This study concluded that about 61 percent of practitioners started yoga because of the flexibility of the exercise, while another 56 percent said they were looking for a stress relief outlet, and another 49 percent said they were looking for a way to increase their general fitness. The same number – 49 percent – said that overall health was their reason, while 44 percent more said they tried yoga for improving their physical fitness.

Undoubtedly, mainstream media has contributed greatly to the popularization of the practice. With more and more celebrities practicing yoga every day, and more readily available ways to practice, yoga’s popularity is likely to only increase in the coming years!
