HELLO JULY 🌞

This month is often busier than usual, especially for parents whose little ones are suddenly under their feet instead of at school, so this is just a little reminder to make some time for yourself each day.

I love practicing yoga on the beach.There's just something about it that makes me feel content. I wondered if it was just me or if there could be reason for it making me feel the way it does. Well, it turns out, there is...

😊 Help you feel happier
The salty sea air is packed with negative ions, which help your body absorb oxygen easier, stimulate your metabolism, raises serotonin levels (which is the hormone responsible for making you feel happy) and eases stress and tension.

💪 Get a better workout
Your body has to work harder as it takes more balance, concentration, and strength to hold poses on the sand. Therefore, beach yoga strengthens muscles in your feet, legs, arms, and core more so than if you practiced in a studio.

🧘‍♀️ Improve your breathing
The sound of the waves help put you into a meditative mood as the rhythmic sound replicates our own breathing rhythms. It's thought that sunrise or sunset are the best times to enter this mindful state.

Annnnd relax...

A warming cup of @yogitea tea and a cake is the perfect way to chill out after a day of wild swimming!

These are just a handful of the benefits, but there are loads more!

👉 Boosts your immune system

👉 Releases happy hormones
👉 Reconnects you with nature
👉 Good for the skin and hair
👉 Increase alertness and clarity

INTRODUCING KATY STYLLI!

@katystylli has recently joined The Zest Life team as a yoga instructor.

She began her own yoga journey over 20 years ago and being inspired by the immense physical and mental well-being it created within her, on and off the mat, she decided to follow her passion and qualify as a yoga teacher in 2019.

She focuses on balancing strength with flexibility, reinforcing the body and mind, and releasing tension to encourage longevity and mobility. Her sequences are inspired by Vinyasa flow, created to be physically challenging while tailored to ones ability. These sequences provide an active, full body experience that strengthen through stretching, breathing, lengthening and opening.

We sat down with Katy and asked her a few questions to help our guests get to know her :-)
