Yoga and inner balance

How warmth, light and yoga can help us maintain equilibrium and find our inner balance.

People have always felt the need for a balance between a clear mind, a healthy, strong body and inner peace.

We feel best when our body is in homeostasis. In this state of perfect balance, when everything runs as it should, our system functions optimally with little effort. However, stress, worries, problems, physical complaints and everyday life sometimes overwhelm us and we lose our balance.

The better we can counteract these stresses, the easier life is for us. Warmth, light, relaxation and physical activity help us to do this.

Yoga is a holistic method that can help us to feel healthy and balanced in the long term.
Originally, this millennia-old teaching involved practising physical exercises (asanas) in conjunction with breathing to prepare the body for meditation. Yoga has continued to evolve and arrived in the Western world decades ago.

"Yoga is not about touching your toes. It's about what you learn along the way."
- Jigar Gor

In our performance-oriented world, we often put ourselves under constant pressure. "Yoga is not for me. I'm not flexible enough!" - an argument that many a yoga teacher has heard. But physical and mental flexibility come from the practice and not the other way around. In the West, the physical aspects of yoga are often practiced and emphasized, but yoga is much more than a workout for strength and endurance. It is not about how much you can bend into a position, but about consciously taking time for yourself and discovering what is good for your body.

By combining physical changes in position with the rhythm of the breath, body and mind are brought into harmony.
The slower pace and focus on the breath calms the mind and promotes mindfulness. In this way, we learn to feel our body better and to stay in the moment. The resulting feeling of relaxation and serenity helps us to cope with everyday life.

Physical benefits of yoga training:
more flexibility
better posture
& strong muscles
They support our health and well-being.

There are many different types of yoga. From hot yoga at a room temperature of 40 degrees Celsius, to slow yin yoga for deep relaxation and fascia stretching, to challenging ashtanga yoga for mental and physical strength. Depending on your mood, preferences and needs, you can discover the right style for you.

Tip: Relax in the Physiotherm infrared cabin after your next yoga class.Infrared heat applications support blood circulation, can prevent sore muscles, strengthen the immune system and contribute to deep relaxation.

Finding inner balance means finding the right counterbalance.

If you are agitated, frustrated and nervous, a long walk in nature or a session of power yoga can help. If you are exhausted, stressed and exhausted, you can benefit from a quiet yoga session or a time-out in an infrared cabin with soothing warmth. It is important to listen to yourself every day and regularly create the right balance.

And don't forget: Breathe in deeply and breathe out slowly.
