Getting the Most from Your Practice

Follow these guidelines to enhance your yoga and meditation experience.

Creating Your Space

• Choose a quiet, clean area with good ventilation
• Use a yoga mat for cushioning and stability
• Keep props nearby: blocks, straps, blankets, or cushions
• Minimize distractions by silencing devices

Timing Your Practice

• Practice on an empty stomach or at least 2-3 hours after a meal
• Morning practice energizes; evening practice relaxes
• Consistency matters more than duration—even 10 minutes daily is beneficial

During Your Session

• Begin with gentle warm-up movements
• Follow the instructor's breathing cues
• Modify poses as needed for your body
• End with relaxation (Savasana) to integrate the practice

Building Your Practice

• Start with beginner sessions and progress gradually
• Explore different styles to find what resonates with you
• Track your progress and celebrate small improvements
• Be patient—yoga is a lifelong journey, not a destination

Meditation Tips

• Find a comfortable seated position
• Start with short sessions (5-10 minutes) and gradually increase
• Don't judge your thoughts—simply observe and return to focus
• Use guided meditations when starting out
