Yoga has been viewed by many to reduce stress and create balance, but did you know that you can lose weight and re-shape your body with yoga? In yoga the breath and visualizations are used to “lengthen the muscles”. For example, when I teach I say to my students, “Use your breath from your heal to your buttocks. Imagine your breath creating space, lengthening your muscles.” The more you do yoga you’ll notice that your muscles transform to a longer, leaner muscle.
If you want to get a energizing workout that will burn a bunch of calories and reduce body fat try Ashtanga (power yoga) or Vinyasa (flow). You’ll love the results body, mind, and spirit!
