Are you looking for a quick Friday night dinner? ☀️ Or a nice summer lunch for this weekend?
Try a healthy salad bowl with summer fresh toppings like mango and avocado! Peaches and shrimp are also a great alternative ☀️
Nothing like a homemade, herbaceous dressing made by blending cilantro with some lime juice and olive oil for that summer flavor!

I was inspired to try hot yoga after hearing about it from a family member, so of course I had to look up the benefits! It really is addictive, and makes you feel great afterwards as long as you drink plenty of water!

🔥 The Benefits of Hot Yoga 🔥

Hot yoga is typically also known as Bikram yoga (though there are other options in most studios such as hot Vinyasa or other varieties). This form of yoga is performed in a heated room, typically around 95 to 103 degrees F, with a higher humidity level. While the idea of practicing yoga in such intense heat may seem daunting, there are numerous benefits that come along with it:

1️⃣ Enhanced Flexibility: The heat in a hot yoga studio helps to warm up your muscles, tendons, and ligaments, allowing for greater flexibility. With increased warmth, your body becomes more pliable, making it easier to move into poses and deepen your stretches. This can help improve your overall range of motion and increase your flexibility over time.

2️⃣ Detoxification: Sweating is a natural mechanism for detoxifying the body, and in a hot yoga class, you'll definitely work up a sweat! The elevated temperature and humidity in the room stimulate your sweat glands, helping to eliminate toxins from your body. This detoxifying effect can leave you feeling refreshed and revitalized after each session.

3️⃣ Cardiovascular Workout: Hot yoga is not just about flexibility and balance; it can also provide a great cardiovascular workout. The heat elevates your heart rate, increasing blood circulation and oxygen flow throughout your body. As you flow through the challenging postures, you'll engage in a dynamic full-body workout that can help improve your cardiovascular health and stamina.

4️⃣ Mental Focus and Mindfulness: The combination of heat, humidity, and physical exertion in hot yoga requires intense mental focus. As you concentrate on your breath and movement, you naturally cultivate mindfulness and become fully present in the moment. This meditative aspect of hot yoga can help reduce stress, improve mental clarity, and promote a sense of calm and relaxation.

5️⃣ Strength and Endurance: Hot yoga postures often involve holding poses for an extended period, which builds strength and endurance. The heat intensifies the challenge, requiring you to engage your muscles more deeply. Regular hot yoga practice can help tone your body, improve muscle definition, and increase overall strength.

6️⃣ Stress Relief: Just like any form of exercise, hot yoga releases endorphins, the feel-good hormones that promote a sense of well-being and happiness. The combination of physical exertion, deep stretching, and the meditative environment can help reduce anxiety, relieve stress, and improve your overall mood. It provides a sanctuary for you to disconnect from the outside world and focus on self-care.

7️⃣ Joint Health: The heat in a hot yoga class can be especially beneficial for those with joint issues or arthritis. The warmth helps to loosen stiff joints and improve lubrication, reducing discomfort and increasing mobility. Hot yoga can be a gentle yet effective way to alleviate joint pain and improve joint health over time.

Remember, hot yoga may not be suitable for everyone, especially if you have certain medical conditions or are sensitive to heat. It's always essential to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new exercise regimen.

If you're up for the challenge, hot yoga can take your practice to new heights both physically and mentally. Embrace the heat, embrace the sweat, and reap the marvelous benefits that hot yoga has to offer. Namaste! 🙏
