From our Publisher, Trina Becksted: We’d like to express to you the importance of mental health and the many benefits that come with practicing daily yoga. Celebrities participate in yoga, such as Britney Spears, to help clear their mind of anxious thoughts and depression. Floo-id Yoga Studio is a premier, local yoga studio here in Scottsdale, Arizona and we encourage you to read on to discover the truth of yoga!

Reduce Stress

Did you know that stress is the cause of 99% of our illnesses?! Let’s face it, people have millions of thoughts running through their brains at any given moment which causes stress in their bodies and minds. When you practice yoga, you leave all your stress at the door, literally! There are no distractions in the yoga room, like your phone, to take your mind elsewhere. When you focus on your breath you are able to calm down mentally. This will release any stress that you are holding on to so that you leave feeling rejuvenated in your body and relaxed in your mind. Who doesn’t want that?

Mental Confidence

Stress can cause people to feel anxious, negative, fearful and even downright depressed. When you show up on your mat and do your absolute best, you feel good because your circulation is increased which releases all of the happiness chemicals, dopamine, in your body raising your mood and confidence level. A daily yoga practice gives you the mental confidence to do anything you want in life. You will leave walking taller and more confident in who you are and what you want.

Mindfulness

Here’s the truth: most people want to be productive in their work and life and more present with their friends and family. The problem is that they don’t know how, which makes them feel totally disconnected. People deserve to be fully present in every aspect of their lives. At floo-id YOGA our yoga classes help our community tune out the noise and tune into who they really are which allows them to give their fullest attention to what is needed of them. When you show up on your mat you will develop an awareness of who you are and what is important, your thoughts will slow down and you will be able to focus with incredible clarity. Yoga encourages your mind and body to work on the same page. So make up your mind about the next time you are going to come to yoga, so you can feel connected, mindful and present and stop feeling scattered and distracted.
