How to do yoga at home?

In the age of Fitbits, spin classes, and CrossFit, more people are getting into yoga. But not just for the physical benefits. In yoga, like in meditation, it's all about the breathing. And unlike household chores—which don't reward you with a sound mind or hot body for your efforts—yoga gives you both at once.
Here are some tips on how to do yoga at home:

Choose a style of yoga.

Yoga is a great way to relax and get in shape, but it's important to choose the right style for you. There are many different types of yoga, so it can be hard to decide which one works best for your body. The most popular styles are Ashtanga (a set series of poses), Hatha (basic poses), Kundalini (meditation) and Vinyasa flow (moving from pose to pose).
What do you like about each one?
Ashtanga- This is my favourite because it helps me focus on my breath while I go through the sequence of postures. It also really stretches out tight muscles!
Hatha- This is good if you want to start slow with some basic postures before moving onto more advanced ones.
Kundalini- This style focuses on opening the body to make room for energy flow through the chakras, or energy centres that run along an axis between your pelvis and feet. This can be beneficial if you practice yoga regularly as part of your meditation routine because it can help bring balance into all aspects of life

Learn the basics.

The first step to starting your home yoga practice is learning the basics. There are countless ways to begin, but we recommend you start with these simple poses.
Take it slow and make sure you're comfortable in each position before moving on to more challenging ones. Once you've gotten used to some of these basic poses, try adding more advanced ones like Warrior I or Triangle Pose into your routine as well!
One great way for beginners to learn new poses is through a yoga app (or website) like Yoga Glo or Yoga Studio—they have tons of instructional videos that will help guide you through each pose step by step!

Find a place to practice.

Finding a place to practice can be tricky. You want to find a space that's quiet and private, but also well-lit and non-slip. If your home has lots of windows, you're in luck! The more natural light the better, because it helps reduce eye strain and keeps you attentive throughout your practice. If not, try setting up a lamp or two to keep things bright.
If possible, try placing your yoga mat on top of carpeting or another soft surface like rugs or towels so it doesn't slide around when you move around (it's no fun sliding across hardwood floors while trying to do downward facing dog).
Make sure the area is clear of clutter: no stacks of clothes waiting for folding; no mail pileup on the kitchen counter; nothing blocking off access routes from room to room—and nothing that could potentially be tripped over during asanas like warrior 2 (or walking into walls).

Use a yoga app or video.

If you're a beginner, the best way to learn how to do yoga at home is by using an app or video.
You can follow along with a person who knows what he or she is doing and follow their instructions step-by-step.
If you don't have access to any apps or videos, try searching online for free lessons that aren't too advanced for your level of experience.

Take it slow and don't get frustrated!

Yoga is a very physical practice, so it's important to work your way up to it. You may not be able to do some of the more advanced poses right away. That's okay! The most important thing is that you are comfortable and safe as you move through each pose.
In addition, even if you're experienced with yoga, don't get frustrated if you can't do a pose (or several) at first. Yoga is about being flexible and figuring out what works best for your body—there's no shame in taking things slowly!

Learning how to do yoga at home is low intensity but effective!

If you’re new to yoga, the best way to get started is by taking it slow. If you haven’t exercised in a while and are in pain, start with restorative yoga poses that are gentle on your body and help you relax. Once you feel more comfortable with the poses, try some dynamic movements like sun salutations or aerobics-based sequences such as vinyasa flows.
Yoga can improve flexibility and strength through stretching exercises such as downward dog pose (adho mukha svanasana). It can also improve balance and stability by incorporating standing poses like warrior II (virabhadrasana II) or tree pose (vrksasana). Yoga has been shown to be beneficial for managing stress levels as well as anxiety disorders due largely to its calming effect on mind and body.
How to choose a yoga mat?
A yoga mat is a soft, pliable surface that helps you stay stable and comfortable during your practice. It provides extra cushioning between you and the floor, protecting your body from discomfort that can be caused by hard floors or cold surfaces. Because some yogis prefer sticky mats for better grip or thick mats for extra cushioning, there are different styles available to suit any yoga style. Here at Lululemon we have a wide selection of yoga mats including a variety of thicknesses, textures, and lengths.

Why not try the best all round yoga mat: Lululemon’s Reversible mat?

The Reversible Mat brings together everything you need for your flow session. Made from natural rubber with a grippy top layer that helps you find balance; the yoga mat has 5mm extra cushioning and an antimicrobial additive to help prevent mould.
