Benefits of Outdoor Yoga
It’s September, and we’re back to the routine. We’re starting with calendar planning, deadlines, new challenges, and maybe we haven’t even put away the beach or pool towel yet. All of this creates a bit of chaos and stress begins to accumulate. However, at Dosterras Wine Garden, we invite you to our space to start yoga, a practice that offers many benefits, which are amplified in a rural and outdoor setting like ours. In this article, we explain the benefits of outdoor yoga.
Benefits of Outdoor Yoga
Expand the connection between body and mind.
When we step outside and immerse ourselves in nature, we are accompanied by the breeze that caresses the trees and brings us the various fragrances of the natural surroundings and rural environment. With this rainy September opening at Dosterras Wine Garden, we can enjoy the aromas of the vineyard and the trees surrounding our spaces, along with the sounds of nature and the birds that stay to enjoy the last days of summer before autumn arrives.
It gives us more energy.
It goes without saying that being in an outdoor space exposes us to more vitamin D, strengthening our bones and immune system. Additionally, yoga helps us oxygenate our bodies, allowing for greater oxygen intake into the lungs.
It improves mood
Practicing yoga in outdoor spaces like those on our estate provides a significant reduction in stress. It stimulates our senses, allowing for a balance between body, mind, and environment. It helps us focus on ourselves, improve our breathing, and reduce cortisol levels, which are responsible for stress.
One of the advantages of starting with yoga is that you can take this practice anywhere. It can be practiced in enclosed spaces or open areas. At Dosterras Wine Garden, we invite you to come and practice yoga with us. We offer a wide variety of spaces and an idyllic landscape where you can begin this art of well-being, so you can apply everything you’ve learned in our spaces to your daily life.
