Yoga isn't all about getting your leg behind your head!

Fancy getting into one of these positions? World's weirdest yoga poses 



The good news is, you don't have to! Yoga isn't about contortions, it's about working with your body and breath to increase oxygen and blood flow, which makes for a healthy, happy lifestyle. You may be incredibly flexible, but if you're not practicing in a mindful manner and breathing into the asanas, the work that you're putting in is seldom worth it. 

Using various pranayamas or breathing techniques you will gain so much more from yoga than a lean body. Along with the physical benefits, such as improving posture, gaining strength and muscle tone, yoga can give you a healthy dose of oxygen to the brain, which in turn can alleviate depression and make your body function in the way it's born to do. 

Like you - only on the best day ever!
