Day 21: Morning Yoga Challenge - Mindfulness















Mindfulness is bringing awareness to the present moment - to your body, mind and the environment around you. During this 10 minute practice you'll be guided through a body scan - which can be done, seated, standing or lying down. 

For some people, mindfulness can:
- help you become more body aware
- reduce stress and induce a sense of calm and focus
- inspire creativity 
- improve sleep

Similar to mindfulness, during yoga we try and bring awareness and connection to the mind and body. This can be quite challenge for some people at first, as we can be quite disconnected with our body, specific body parts and how our body is feeling. Thus, practicing mindfulness regularly can also help your physical yoga practice, by improving your overall body awareness as moving around the mat.

Yoga can be challenging, but should never be painful, so if you do feel any pain, please listen to your body and gently come out of the pose. It's up to the individual to assess whether they are ready for the class that they have chosen. Yoga with Kelly assumes no responsibility for injuries suffered while practicing these classes.
