It is time for you to find yourself a green space outside to practice yoga instead of sitting in the air conditioned room will be better for the body. In this article, you will find five reasons why you should practice yoga outdoors and surrounded by the beauty of nature that works on your body.
You can 'look up to the sky' ... literally.
Yoga teachers often teach us that "touching the ground" or "looking up to the sky" to feel the body in harmony while practicing in the gym. However, when we practice outside, these things really do matter.
When you touch the natural carpet, you can touch nature. Feel the grass gliding between your fingers and when you look up at the sky, you can see the stars, the clouds moving in the wind or the birds flying across the sky. All of this as a reminder to remind us that we are not just living the earth but that we are also part of it.
The benefits of going barefoot in nature
Thousands of years ago, our ancestors always walked barefoot on the ground, when the slipper was invented and people gradually forgot the great benefits of letting their feet touch the ground. At present, science has proven that there are many benefits of walking barefoot.
Walking barefoot is good for your legs as it causes more muscles and joints in your feet, ankles, and toes. There are many things that we do not usually do while wearing shoes or sandals. The practice of yoga in the home also helps a lot for these agencies, but let's take it to the next level and practice barefoot nature.
Inspired by practice
Many yoga exercises take their name from plants and animals. Practicing yoga outside the natural environment allows yogis to express a sense of thinking while actually looking at what inspired the naming.
For example, harness the power and stability of a tree while you stand in the "tree" position. Out in the wild, feel the birds fly over you like other plants.
Reduce stress
Surrounded by nature, it awakens our senses. Our eyes can see the distance and the natural color, instead of the small blue screen of light that our eyes are usually glued to. We can hear the birds singing in the distance and the wind blowing around us. Our skin absorbs the warmth of the natural heat wave of the sun.
With these senses awakened, we can be more present in our lives in moments without distraction.
Spending time outdoors also reduces the levels of hormone cortisol, the hormone that causes stress. With lower stress levels, we can easily enter a deeper state of relaxation and enjoy the present moment.
Vitamin D intake
When practicing outdoors, take some time to sit in the early morning sun. This will make the body absorb vitamin D completely natural. As you know, Vitamin D is extremely important for bone, joints, and skin.
