Alright so I just began doing yoga a few months ago, but man has it been amazing. There are so many benefits physical and mental to making yoga a part of your life.

1. There are so many different types.

For example, you have Hatha which is a slow paced yoga. It is great for beginners and helps you get focused on your breathing. There's Vinyasa, which is focused on breathing with your movement, and is great for weight loss and burning calories! There is Bikram which is also known as "hot yoga" this is a great way to stretch and sweat out toxins. But my personal favorite type is Aerial Yoga, it's a great mind, body, and soul workout and I leave feeling so refreshed and stretched.

2. Body detoxification

Another amazing benefit of yoga is detoxification, in a typical yoga class, you can help detox multiple parts of the body, aiding in digestion and breathing. As well as helping with body circulation.

3. It's an amazing workout.

I never thought by stretching my body and posing I'd actually sweat but man was I wrong. Aerial yoga is amazing for getting your body into poses that wouldn't be possible if it weren't for the hammock holding you in. After an hour-long class, you can definitely "feel the burn".

4. Focus on the present.

I'm not sure if it's because you are so focused on not falling on your face or what, but doing yoga helps you focus solely on the present and your practice. It has helped so much with not worrying about what happened before class or what's going to happen next week. It is just a great way to center everything going on

5. Energy Flow

Some of you may follow chakras, some may not, but there are seven chakras and if-and when-these become off balance you will notice in your everyday life. Our key is to live a healthy balanced life. This is where the balance comes from. The seven Chakras include the Root, Sacral, Solar Plexus, Heart, Throat, Third Eye, and the Crown Chakra.

6. Improves your health.

Yoga is not only a good workout, it can also improve your physical health. Yoga not only detoxes the body it can also help with preventing disease, relieving constipation, prevent migraines, reduce blood pressure and pulse rates.
