How Yoga Helps With Positivity

BLISS, MEDITATION, RELAXATION, YOGA

We LOVE yoga at Bliss and so do the ladies that visit us! One of the many benefits of yoga is that it can leave you feeling positive and energised.

Sometimes in life it’s hard to be happy and keep yourself motivated. Life gets in the way and, especially through difficult times, it can be a struggle to make yourself feel positive. As paths change, jobs are lost, heart’s break and we lose people close to us, our direction can become a little lost in this ever-evolving landscape.

You can often feel as though you have painted a smile on your face but inside you are still feeling down. You start to wonder if it’s just you who feels like this, but don’t panic we all have down days! The realities of struggling with mental health and emotions is ever more prevalent in the news and in our societies. The power of social media can make everyone’s lives seem perfect and polished, but underneath we know some people are struggling and need a positive lift.

This is why it’s so important to find ways to stay positive, and thankfully there are many amazing ways you can do this and keep stress, anxiety and depression at bay, and one of those is yoga!

As well as being great for exercise, you can connect with your soul and emotions through yoga to increase your positive energy.

When focusing on the technique and rhythmic guidance of the breath, your body can absorb oxygen better which not only helps your muscles to grow strong and deepen your postures but also strengthens the brain and the mind. It can have the same effect as powerful breathing meditations!

By focusing and engaging your mind in the pose of the body, you are able to better relax the mind and wash away negative thoughts of the day. Yoga postures combined with deep breathing facilitate deep relaxation that combats stress and can make you happier. It’s all about finding your inner peace!

The peace and happiness we access on our yoga mats is no accident. Yoga goes deeper than your average exercise-induced dopamine high.

Much of our unhappiness comes from our thoughts or feelings because we judge our experiences in terms of good or bad. Not only does a full practice of yoga and meditation gently remove these self-judgements, but with time, it can begin to reshape our attitudes, views, and thoughts.

Try these yoga poses to boost your energy and create a lighter, happier you

Cat Cow Pose

Use this pose to calm the continuous fluctuations of the mind and relax your nervous system, and create gentle movement through the body, inviting the flow of positive energy through your body.

Warrior II Pose

This pose is great for releasing stress and tension and to remind yourself that you can stand strong, that you are invincible and amazing in everything that you do!

Wheel Pose

Back bends have been known to release endorphins and the deep opening through the front of the body helps to relive stress and energise the body.

Reclined Bound Angle Pose

We live in a crazy busy world, so try this pose to find calmness and stillness and focus your mind.

Bliss Yoga
Some of our guests love love love yoga and others are complete beginners. We cater for you all. Our advanced Yogi’s love the choices of unlimited yoga from our inhouse (just tell our teacher what level you’re at and we have such small classes she’ll push you individually) + visiting Desa Seni with teachers from all over the world. Many love the inhouse beginners yoga. And as you’ll see here many guests love a few Instagram style yoga shots. We are really different to any yoga retreat as you get heaps of amazing yoga (or none it’s your choice), and all the treatments, amazing food, relaxation time and everything else we have to offer. All completely tailored to you. As is our yoga. Mostly classes are only 2-3 people and often it’s 1:1 which is how we love to keep it. Personal, and tailored to you. We hope these stories inspire your yoga journey.
