Most of us didn’t begin our yoga journeys until we were already fully developed as adults. Whatever our reason for starting, it didn’t take us long to discover the mental and physical benefits of the practice and, as a result, ask ourselves why we didn’t begin practicing earlier.

For many of us, summer represents simplicity: a break from routine and an invitation for fun. Perhaps it isn’t a lighter workload that offers a change to your days, but rather the welcomed hours of sunlight warming the sidewalks and lengthening your days.

Yoga Odyssey received this wonderful testimonial from one of our students; Frank found that yoga has helped him both physically and mentally since he’s started practicing regularly!

An optimal diet is an essential component of overall well-being. We encourage you to take extra time when you plan out your meals to make sure that your body is getting everything it needs to support you!

As yogis, we are constantly working to strengthen our bodies and maximize our wellness. Our teachers often talk about the power of the mind as we go through our flows, but being attuned to the muscular activity that we engage is just as important.

Yoga as a cognitive experience is one of self-study. In Yoga Odyssey classes, students turn their focus inward and practice tuning out external distractions by bringing awareness to the emotions and sensations felt in the body.
