From Fed's mind to your eyes.
 

 

If/when you practise with an injury, always work with mindfulness: but notice if you're focusing on doing the yoga, being mindful of your injury, or you're focusing on your injury, being mindful of doing the yoga.

Bikram Yoga For Runners

 

Run to Yoga!
Why Yoga is great for runners!

1

You build lung capacity. From the first breathing exercise to the final posture, you're working on increasing your lung capacity. You will find you are taking bigger and deeper breaths than you ever have before. Those long distances won't seem quite so challenging!

 

Yoga strengthens and aligns muscles, ligaments and tendons, improving your running performance. 

 

You get used to sweating. For 90 minutes, you're exercising in a room heated to 40 degrees. So, your body becomes efficient at maintaining an optimum working temperature. 

 

4
Bikram Yoga improves cardiovascular activity! Your heart rate is elevated, but your breath and mind are absolutely calm.

 

5

Yoga can assist in the healing of old injuries. Injuries can remain dormant in your body for a life time. Whether you recognize it or not, old injuries affect your performance. Yoga works through the tourniquet effect of compression and release. As you practice yoga, circulation reaches these parts of your body and works like a pressure washer to clean out scar tissue and damage that has been done, restoring your body to its natural state.

 

6

Yoga makes you alkaline! Practicing yoga creates an environment in your body that makes you much more immune to sickness and disease. Less time in bed and more time out in the fresh open air!

 

7
Yoga encourages healthy habits. The more you practice yoga, the more you find yourself making better choices. Including lifestyle, diet and nutrition, and overall decision making. Supporting your ability to participate in any sport that takes your fancy!

 

8
You will have a better spine than you did when you were a kid! In Bikram Yoga, the natural body's range of motion is restored, reversing the impact of all that pavement pounding.

 

9
Yoga and running can be used to find and fulfil our potential as human beings. We are responsible for our experience on this planet! Acceptance of this is liberating and can bring infinite happiness and success to your life.

 

10

Many of us run to raise awareness and funds for charities and causes that we care deeply about. This is an invaluable resource for helping people in need. Keep up your yoga and keep running to change lives for the better!

 

BYC Housekeeping
Mindfulness
Mindfulness

The thought of this month's housekeeping is mindfulness of your fellow yogis.

 

Personal hygiene: it's a very important and sensitive topic. If you've had a tough day or you've been working in a smelly environment, jump in the shower before class. Come to your practise the way you want to leave it - fresh and clean.

 

Modesty: Protect your modesty when dressing for your Bikram Class. We know it is hot in there and less is more, however, please make sure your less covers all your more.  This includes leggings that are made of thin material and shorts that don't cover you from every angle.  If in doubt check it out.

 

Mobile Phones: Please respect studio policy and your fellow No Mobiles in BYC  yogis, by not using your phones for calling, texting, checking emails, or gaming, while upstairs at the studio.

 

Class is 90mins: Please come with a mind to practise the full class and not to leave until your teacher has ended class. No matter how quiet you are, or how close to the doors you have placed yourself, leaving early disturbs the practice of you and your fellow yogis.

 

Glass: Please do not bring glass into the building.  Accidents do and will happen, no matter how careful we all are.

 

BYC Buddha Buddha: As you all know, our reception Buddha is more than happy to loan you a �1 or a locker token for the lockers, if you have forgotten yours - however, at present, very few are being returned. Buddha is actually loosing money - this can't be right... So, please return what you have borrowed, as without you doing this, the system simply won't work. 

 

Sshhhh: Please be respectful of your fellow yogis/yoginis' Savasanah for 15 minutes before and after class, by being silent in the studio. 

 

Namaste
