Yoga Mats: Brand SportsVaultShop

I sometimes hear people at yoga retreats saying that they have problems maintaining a regular meditation practice. These are generally very disciplined and organised folk. They are able to hold down a job and look after the families etc. without too many problems. And have no problem showing up to their yoga classes. But when it comes to meditation, they are by their own admission, a bit�flaky. They are not sceptics or new to Meditation. They have often even been on long meditation retreats and...

September is a time of transition in nature when we transition into autumn. The warm and humid conditions of summer give way to cooler, more changeable autumn winds. The once lush green of leaves hint at yellow hues and theres a distinct change in the energy around us. A slower pace awaits us in the coming months. This is when the plants pause their growth, animals retreat into hibernation, and it once again becomes acceptable to add cinnamon to practically everything. Before autumn arrives how...

Your first yoga prop is your body. The second is probably your mat. There are a huge variety of mats available and many factors to consider before you buy: durability and weight, the material and texture, thickness and comfort, stickiness (too much can be as bad as too little), the price, and the environmental cost.

When it comes to holistic health, Ayurveda is the mother of all wellbeing systems. It integrates everything from food and family time to work-life balance, meditation practices and exercise, breathing techniques, sun exposure, mindfulness and mudras, and much more. Indeed, everything we do and everything were surrounded by has an affect upon us. The choices we make in terms of the colours were exposed to may seem like a small insignificance in terms of our health and wellbeing, but it turns out...

What is Vinyasa Flow Yoga Vinyasa is a style of yoga where poses are strung together to form one fluid sequence of movement. I was schooled in mostly Iyengar and Hatha yoga, so when I found Vinyasa, it was a whole new world to me. As much as I love the diligent nature of an Iyengar class, there was something very nurturing about moving with my breath and letting my body flow in new directions. The classes are often fast-paced and rhythmical, with a focus on connecting the movements with the rhy...
