Dedicated area for yoga

You should not practice yoga at any place that suits your fancy on a particular that day. Just like you have to keep a designated workstation during your work-from-home days, you need a designated yoga corner, to be able to exercise, with a certain level of discipline. So, select a room or a corner where there will be minimum interruption.

While selecting this space, be mindful of the following:

• You should ideally not choose a corner of your bedroom for yoga practice. This is the room where you are supposed to rest and relax. The vibes of a yoga practicing area and the bedroom are, thus, entirely different and should not overlap.
• To get the best results, a yoga practitioner must have great focus. This is only possible in an area where there are no disturbances. So, your yoga corner should not be very close to the kitchen or the living room.

Open spaces that allow access to the natural air and light, are ideal for yoga. This makes gardens, balconies and terraces the perfect places for you. In case these are not available, any space with fair access to air and sunlight must be chosen, for the yoga practice.

Home décor for yoga area

To give the area a more personalised vibe, you could decorate the yoga area, keeping in mind some of the pointers given below.

• Mark your yoga space with simple wallpaper or vinyl wall stickers, to set it apart from the rest of the room.

• Add crystals, seashells, smooth rocks, or anything that reminds you of nature and brings a calm feeling, to the area. You can also add candles in ornamental candle stands.

• Lighting incense sticks, fragrant candles, or diffusers with essential oils, are great ways to feel relaxed while you practice.

• A statue of Buddha, or any other symbol of spirituality that resonates with you most, can be used to bring instant peace to your yoga space.

• If the sound of wind chimes makes you feel calm, add one made of either crystals or sea shells, to your yoga space.

• Keep a speaker handy, to listen to your favourite music while working out. Keeping your headphones on is certainly not a good idea and most yoga practitioners advise against it. The speaker would also be helpful, if you are taking online yoga lessons.
