So many people are put off trying yoga because of its image or associations.⠀
“I’m just not the yoga type”, said my husband until I finally dragged him and my daughter to a family yoga session run by Danniella Metson at @mayurayogastudio. Now he’s hooked and wants to progress.  Years of cycling and hunching over a desk have left him stiff and inflexible and unable to carry on with his love of running. He used to nag me for not doing enough cardio.  I nagged him back for being so inflexible (physically, not in general. That’s a whole other story!). ⠀
⠀
Regular yoga leaves you feeling refreshed, re-energised and relaxed. The human body was built to have a wide range of motion and sadly, as we age, this mobility decreases because of external factors – life. A lot of us are sedentary for 96% of the day, and sitting is possibly the worst thing our bodies can do. It’s not too late to make a start on improving your mobility. ⠀
⠀
If you’re not comfortable attending a class - and we have plenty to chose from in our area @theyogafactorysouthend @anahatayogacentre @grattan.sarah - then you could try yoga in the comfort of your own home with @doyouyoga or @adrienelouise. And if you’re not too mobile then chair yoga is always an option.⠀
⠀
So that’s the #trulymetime pledge for today: I’m going off to do my yoga practice now and if you’ve never done it before - try it, you might like it. ⠀
