A great yoga tip was revealed to me during our regular hot vinyasa class, explaining the importance of weight distribution throughout our flow. I will apply this every time I practice now.

When in search of a holiday gift for a loved one, you sometimes can hit that road bump of "but they already have everything."

Luckily, when searching for that yogi who has everything, we created the perfect list of unique yoga accessories to add to their collection!

As I first discovered yoga, I quickly learned that having a strong and powerful core is a necessity for your practice (you kind of use it for every movement).

Which is why I am always so grateful when my yoga teachers include a targeted ab workout within the class (especially over the holiday seasons).

Seriously cannot get enough of this mat! It’s not slippery when I do hot yoga. It’s not heavy when I bring it hiking. It’s super gushy and comfortable when I do inversions. Plus when I clean it, it’s easy to just … wipe off.

 When the sun starts to hibernate a little, I spice up the areas I spend the most time in order to encourage and maintain a pleasant mood during those darker months.

Some have a knack for gift-giving. Others want to crawl and hide under their beds.

Whatever gift-giving style you take on, a little help or inspiration never hurt.

Especially when you’re on a budget.

Trying to impress those you adore by how thoughtful you can be? Well, this simple list of yoga holiday gift ideas is great for family and friends whether they practice yoga or are just need some time to relax.

{ For the Sake of Your Tummy }

Eating the right types of foods before yoga, or a sweat session of any kind, is very important. The less distracted your stomach is while your muscles are working, the better you'll be able to perform and get the most out of your workout.

SMODGS, with its many meanings, is a helpful word/acronym to remember before yoga.
