Yoga has been practiced for thousands of years by millions of people.  In 2012, 20.4 million Americans practiced yoga, as reported by Yoga Journal in their latest "Yoga in America" study.  Clearly, there is something to yoga.

Yoga promotes a healthy lifestyle and has many reported benefits such as; reduced stress levels, improved flexibility and range of motion in joints, increased strength and endurance, better concentration, better posture, increased lung capacity, lowers blood pressure and heart rate, and of course weight loss.

One can achieve many of these benefits by simply practicing the yoga postures.  However, the "big deal" occurs when we allow ourselves to tune out all the excess chatter in our minds, to turn off all the things that create excess static in our lives and become present, even for just a few moments.  Once we begin to feel the new sense of space that comes with tuning in, a sense of freedom and awareness begins to grow.  By settling into that space, by taking the time each day to breath, we begin to discover the "big deal" in all its yogic glory. 

Now that you have read about the benefits of a yoga practice, I encourage you to come to the studio today and enroll in one of our classes.
