From frozen toes to sweaty hot flows ❄️🔥
There’s nothing quite like stepping out of the cold and into the warmth of the hot yoga studio.
Cold weather tightens muscles and joints.
The heated room melts that tension away almost immediately.
So why does hot yoga feel so damn good?
When you’ve been out in the cold, especially on frosty winter days your body is often in mild stress mode with shoulders hunched, jaw clenched and breath becoming shallow.
Then you step into a hot yoga room…
The heat, movement and slow breathing flip the switch into your parasympathetic nervous system, your rest and digest state.
Telling your body, hey don’t worry you’re safe .
In turn your muscles soften, your breath deepens, your brain lets go. So during your practice cortisol drops & adrenaline settles.
This is why you’ll leave feeling calm, grounded and emotionally lighter even after a challenging class.
Added bonus
Well you’ll sleep like a baby,
The combo of the heat, movement with breath, (think moving meditation) trains your body to regulate temperature and nervous system cycles, making it much easier to drop into deep sleep later.
A good reason we think to warm those frozen toes together, so book your mat and we’ll see you in our warm and toasty studio later!
