I definately
love using yoga DVDs and yoga videos during my practices. As a matter of fact, I utilize one of them almost every instant I do yoga. Why do I love using them so much?
They Provide Variety - I do not
understand
about you, but I get bored pretty easily. Doing exactly the same practice over and over again would drive me crazy. Instead of enjoying the relaxation that comes from yoga, I would most definately
be irritated by having to do the same program every measure
I practiced. To deal with my need for diversity, I have an assortment of yoga DVDs and I usually pick a different one each time I practice. I choose one that fits my mood and then get to enjoy the practice thoroughly.
Enjoy Favorite Classes - Even though I like variety, I also have some favorite programs. With yoga videos, I get to enjoy my preferred classes as almost always
as I like. Its like visiting with an old friend you know what to expect and its very comfortable.
They Are Time Efficient - Like you, I never seem to have enough instant. Going to a yoga class adds up to two hours to my practice time when you ruminate on
driving to the center, finding a parking spot, registering, and taking my space in the class. Sometimes, I cant fit in the more
measure
into my schedule, so I use a video instead.
They Are Convenient - Yoga videos are very convenient because they are always ready when you are. You might want to practice at a certain time, but there isnt a class available. I understand
this is the case with me. Very often yoga classes in my area are offered at times that dont fit my schedule. So instead of not practicing at all, I utilize one of my yoga tapes and I am
all set to go.
You Get to Practice With Renowned Teachers - There are many gifted teachers in yoga and it is a thrill to practice with them. One of my most beloved power yoga instructors is Bryan Kest. The only problem is that his studio is in California and I live in New Jersey. Its pretty hard to practice with an instructor who lives 3,000 miles away from you. By using one of Bryans yoga DVDs, it is like he is right there with me in the room.
You Choose a Practice Based on What You Need - Yoga DVDs allow you to focus on what you need at a defined measure
. You might
choose one that focuses on stress reduction, one that helps you make your upper body, one that helps generate your core. You can also pick one that suits your explicit
physical situation such as pregnancy yoga or yoga for seniors. You decide what you want and you choose the video that meets that absolutely need.
Its Easy to Modify Postures - Lately, I have been dealing with an injured foot that occurred while I was running. As a result, I cant put any pressure on the front of my foot. That means I have to modify a number of poses such as Plank Pose -- I absolutely need to put my knees down so I do not
bear my entire body weight on my forefoot. Sometimes it takes a lot of extra movements to get into a posture because of this injury. I would find it very uncomfortable to have to do all of these modifications in a regular class with other all the people around. By using one of my yoga DVDs, I might
easily modify the posture to meet my physical needs and I might
do it in the privacy of my own home.
Now you might
see why I think yoga DVDs and videos are so nice
. They are brain friendly, convenient, and they might
add breadth to your practice. Try some and see for yourself. You might grow to love them too.
