Why start an at home yoga practice?

There are many good reasons to start a home practice. It could be something simple as limited financial resources, time, or you are just looking to tune into yourself and deepen your practice. Whatever your motivation, a home practice is excellent to begin at any time.

Benefits:

Maintain a consistent practice
Deeper personal practice
Reduce stress and bring calmness and serenity into everyday life
Increase mindfulness
Move through each day with ease

Who should start a home practice?

Anyone can start a home practice during anytime, however I recommend for beginners to seek the guidance of a Registered Yoga Teacher in order to learn proper alignment and prevent injury.

Tips for starting a home practice:

Create a clean and comfortable space free from distractions
Pick a specific time each day to practice
Start with a guided practice (this can be under the guidance of a yoga teacher, video or printed handout)
Invest in props (yoga mat, blocks, blankets, bolsters, straps)
Set an intention for each practice

Well balanced yoga practice includes:

Centering and breath work
Warm-ups
Yoga postures or asanas
- Standing poses, balancing, forward and backbends, seated postures, twists
Relaxation or savasana

If you want guidance for starting your own home practice, I offer in-home private lessons for those looking to go a little bit deeper on their yoga journey, or seeking relief in their body.
