Beat the Heat: 10 reasons why you should be practicing hot yoga this summer!

There are so many reasons why you should practice a hot yoga like Bikram yoga all year round! But there are so many more reasons why you should practice hot yoga during the summer! Here is a list of some of our favorite top 10 reasons why you should practice hot yoga this summer!

1. Summer is hot -> climatize, climatize, climatize!

Ask someone to describe summer in South Australia and they’ll give you one word hot and maybe a few more before depending on how they feel about it. Attending hot yoga during the summer acclimatizes your body to the heat, giving you more energy and tranquility during those days that are real scorches. Make it your summer not the weathers.

2. Keep that Bikini body baby

What better time to feel incredible then beach days with friends, sun, sand and surf or an arvo by the pool. Yoga helps tone your body and helps build muscle memory, meaning you can keep strutting your stuff all summer long.

3. Guilt free eating…. Um yes please

This has to be our favourite. Ice cream. Guilt free lunches. Smoothies and more. Yoga’s got your back and your body covered…. 😉

4. Don’t burn out…. Summer time is party time

Outdoor parties, festivals, concerts and time with friends. There’s a lot that happens in summer. Yoga helps in giving your body the energy and vitality to make it out each time, every time

5. Your body is more flexible

Summer heat helps keep your body flexible during the day, meaning the transition in the yoga room is easier than in summer. Those awesome yoga benefits for less effort, now we’re talking.

6. Keeps you cool in the heat

Hot yoga teaches your body how to keep cool under heat, meaning not only do you feel the heat less but your body reacts to it better and more efficiently.

7. Make the most of summer sport

Summer sport requires a lot of energy, long days on the road, green, fairway, court or pool. Making sure your muscles are properly recovered and stretched helps prevent injury, improves your performance and gives you endurance to keep going for longer.

8. Keeps you hydrated

It can be easy to forgot about hydration in summer in between a few sparkling wines or a couple of cold beers. Keeping up with yoga reminds you to keep hydrate and keeps your body’s intake of the good fluids at its optimum.

9. Stress free holidays…. Say what?

If you’ve got kids, or you’ve ever been shopping during the Holidays you know its not necessarily the stress-free kind. Yoga keeps your mind in check, gives you that vent and helps keep you relaxed… finally.

10. When winter came…. Zero thoughts were given!

Winter is coming…. Well, not right away, but it is - believe us. When autumn arrives again your mind, body and soul will be in peak shape to keep those summer vibes rocking straight through the cold.
