Yoga For Menopause

Using yoga to manage your symptoms can be very rewarding. There are a number of specially adapted techniques to help reduce the symptoms such as hot flushes, anxiety, irritability, insomnia, fatigue, lack of focus and low mood.
Restorative yoga requires poses to be held for longer than in conventional yoga often with the support of props, such as folded blankets/ towels, to fully relax the body and provide the ultimate comfort. These postures relax the nervous system.

There are numerous schools of yoga out there, and countless poses along with adaptations. This can be a little overwhelming to get you started. Whether you have a significant amount of yoga experience or none at all, we want you to be able to use yoga to help relieve your menopausal discomforts.
Simply meditating is a great way to help, breathing a little longer, a little deeper helps the digestive system. The use of accessories is so helpful in getting started.

MAINTAIN YOUR POSE FOR LONGER

In order to truly reap the rewards of performing a certain asana, you need to be able to hold the pose for a considerable amount of time. But those who are just starting to learn a new pose, regardless of their skill levels, know that this is much easier said than done. If you're in the same dilemma, you'll find our yoga blocks truly useful. Prop it under your sacrum while doing a bridge pose and you'll know exactly what we mean.
These Yoga Blocks can help you achieve your asana goals, no matter your skill level!

If you're not yet bendy enough to bring all your palms flat onto the floor, then you're going to find our yoga blocks immensely helpful. This is one of the most common uses of a yoga block: to decrease the distance between your hands and the floor so you can perform the asana safely and reduce strain on certain parts of your body. So go ahead and pop that Extended Side Angle Pose you've been meaning to try for a while.

BUILD MUSCLE ENDURANCE
Muscle endurance is important in order to hold asanas for a substantial amount of time, which is essential in order to feel the effects and reap the rewards of those poses. If you find your muscles easily get tired, you can use our yoga wheel to assist your tired muscles so they can hold the pose for longer. This will help you build endurance, and eventually, you'll be able to stay in position without the aid of the wheel.

ENJOY THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS
Yoga wheels are excellent tools to help relieve muscle kinks and aches, especially along the back and the neck. They can also be used to massage your legs as well. They work in the same fashion as foam rollers, only better since they're bigger and sturdier. Rolling your back or legs on the wheel also helps to improve blood circulation, which in turn helps tired muscles recover faster.

AVOID POTENTIAL INJURIES
Stretching prior to exercising helps to loosen tight muscles and joints, which in turn reduces the likelihood of you getting injured while doing muscle pulling and joint-twisting asanas. By warming up, you become less susceptible to soft tissue injuries which include muscle strains and pulled tendons. Use this yoga strap to stretch before working out so you can prepare your body for the strenuous activity ahead.

PREMIUM QUALITY MICROFIBER
Our yoga towel is made from 300g microfiber suede that is ultra-soft and feels good on the skin. More importantly though, it's very effective in absorbing excessive amounts of moisture, which makes it a great choice for those long and sweaty yoga sessions. These same features make them suitable as an all-around exercise towel as well, so you can bring them to the gym, beach, or pool. This can also be used to help support you under the knee by rolling it up: Provides extra comfort.

STYLISH & PRACTICAL DESIGN
Our yoga mat is designed with lines that guide the body to align in standing poses, that are not only stylish but serve a more practical purpose as well. Aside from reminding you of the connections between the self, the physical world and the spiritual realm, these specifically positioned markings also help to guide your alignment and positioning, in particular the 45 degree lines are perfect for the warrior pose. It's a wonderful feature that both beginning and advanced yogis will definitely find useful.

A GIFT TO YOURSELF
Yoga is a journey of the self, through the self, to the self. Throughout this process, you're going to need a comfortable and reliable yoga mat under your feet (or hands or bum as the case may be). So, whether you're looking for a new mat to keep you company in the early stages of your journey, or need to retire your old mat for a newer and more upgraded version, our yoga mat is for you.
