6 keys to practice yoga on vacation

Once you are clear about your vacation destination, take a few minutes to plan your yoga practice in this new place. To do this, we recommend you follow the steps below:

1. Find a yoga center in your vacation destination

Investigate if there is a yoga center in the place where you are going on vacation. Many of them close in summer but others, like YogaOne El Perchel (in Malaga) keep their room open during July and August so that people who come on vacation can continue their practice. Without a doubt, it is a very good solution to avoid having to stop practicing yoga in summer. In addition, getting to know a new center can be a very good and unforgettable experience.

2. take your mat with you

Find a place in the suitcase to try to carry your mat always with you. Thus, you will have no excuse for dedicating a few minutes to your practice each day. And if it's not possible due to space, don't worry; In centers like YogaOne El Perchel it is not necessary to bring anything since they have all the necessary material to perform any type of yoga.

3. Dedicate an hour a day

It is true that our rhythm changes in summer, but it is important to find time to enjoy yoga without having to compromise the rest of your plans. The first hours of the morning or the last hours of the afternoon are usually the best option to avoid the heat and take advantage of the rest of the day.

4. Fresh food and water

Complement your practice with healthy food and cool drinks. They are the perfect complement to take even more advantage of the benefits that yoga can also provide in the hot months.

5. Set realistic goals

Although generally in summer we have more free time, do not set goals that are too ambitious so as not to get discouraged with your purpose. If you normally practice three days a week, it's okay to continue with that routine and even a few days less; it is not necessary to increase the number of days in summer.

7. Find your best moment

In summer the schedules change, as well as our chores. Therefore, it is not surprising that the hours in which we prefer to practice are also modified. If, for example, it is usually after the workday when you practice yoga; in summer you may prefer first thing in the morning to avoid the heat when performing sun salutations.
