The Benefits Of Yoga During The Holidays
Yoga can be a great way to relax and destress during the holiday season. The holidays can be a busy time for many people, and taking time for yourself to practice yoga can help you feel more balanced and centered. Yoga can also help to improve flexibility, strength, and overall physical and mental well-being. It can help you stay physically active and healthy, which is especially important during the colder months when you may be less inclined to go outside and exercise.
Benefits to Practicing Yoga During the Holidays
Reducing Stress and Anxiety
The stretching and deep breathing involved in a yoga practice can help calm the mind and relieve stress and anxiety. This can be especially helpful during the busy and hectic holiday season.
Improving Physical Health
Yoga is a physical practice that can help improve flexibility, strength, and balance. This can help you stay healthy and avoid injuries, especially if you’re engaging in activities like shoveling snow (for my far away yogis) or carrying heavy packages.
Boosting Mood
The combination of physical exercise and mindfulness can help improve your mood and boost your overall sense of well-being. This can be especially helpful if the holidays are a difficult time for you emotionally.
Promoting Relaxation and Rest
Yoga can help promote relaxation and rest, which can be especially important during the busy holiday season. This can help you sleep better and feel more refreshed and energized.
We realize at STY it can be harder for you to get your yoga fix with the cooler weather. Trust us, we miss you too! If it helps, I do have a ton of yoga videos on our Facebook page that might just help you get through the winter season. These were the porch sessions of 2020. There are Level 1 and Power Classes available. Just go to our Photos, click Albums, then scroll down to Videos. You will need to scroll down till you find me on the porch. I also have a few videos on Youtube that are on the beach if you need a little beach fix. And…I may also offer a few Facebook Live sessions throughout December and January. Please continue to follow and interact with us on Social Media, otherwise we disappear from your feed. There we will post any Pop Up classes and any FB lives I plan.
Wishing everyone a blissful holiday season full of love and laughter, and lots of yoga~ Melora
