Immersed in nature, you are reminded of your place on earth and can feel more connected to the natural world. An additional benefit of an alfresco practice is that you no longer have the luxury of a flat surface, which necessitates increasing your focus on the terrain and improving your balance! This one-hour, gentle yoga practice in this peaceful environment will help to quiet and strengthen your mind. Breathing fresh air in will enhance your respiratory function. Being aware of your environment will increase your sensory engagement. Your body, heart and mind will thank you! We also have this opportunity to be more mindful and more appreciative of all the beauty that surrounds us. PS I think you will have fun too! |
