Well, we’re nearly a month into the New Year, so it’s time to check on those resolutions we made. Statistically, 64% of you should still be well-resolved, but just in case you’re late to the table with a resolution for 2014, may I be so bold as to suggest yoga.
Why yoga? It turns out that’s a question a lot of people ask. It’s something that you can use to your advantage; whether you work in the fitness industry or you’re just in the market for an all-inclusive resolution.
This installment of Plastic Printers template of the week will show you how yoga is the key to both personal and professional success.
Most of us think we know about the benefits that yoga and meditation have to offer. Does this sound familiar?
Yes, these benefits are on the list, but according to experts and practitioners, there are some surprising resolution-worthy ones that a lot of people miss until they start attending regular classes. Those self-improvement surprises are what we will look at today.
Here are the 5 untold skills you’ll gain from guided stretching and breathing exercises:
Benefit #1: Increase your compassion. A physical discipline, particularly this physical discipline, can change your mental outlook and perspective on the world around you.
Regular yoga practitioners say they walk out of classes feeling more centered, insightful, and liberated. They are able to solve problems more easily and their compassionate mindset allows them to set aside ill-will, the negative side of competition and petty arguments.
Benefit #2: Make healthy eating crave-worthy. Yoga naturally detoxifies the body. As a result of this process, students begin to crave foods that are actually good for their mind and their body. It’s not uncommon for them to go through a complete dietary turnaround within a couple months of attending regular classes. They still eat junk food on occasion, but it’s a treat, not a daily habit.
Benefit #3: Low-impact strength training. If you’ve never been to a yoga class before, you may be surprised at just how much energy and strength it takes to strike the proper pose. The good news is if you practice, it gets easier, because in addition to flexibility; you also gain strength.
Benefit #4: Embracing your confident side. People are fond of saying that you can do anything you set your mind to. Yoga helps you prove this principle to the toughest critic there is: you.
It’s one thing to say the words to yourself, it’s a different thing entirely to put those words into action. When you start to succeed and meet your goals, your inner potential and confidence start to grow. Chances are it will soon become contagious.
Benefit #5: Form better relationships. You could say all of these benefits combine into one major outcome bursting with positivity: the ability to better relate to people. All of these positive attributes will leave you to opportunities and relationships you never would’ve expected. They give you the skills and support you need to grow your social and professional network.
These resolutions don’t come overnight. It will take time, but hang in there and you will reap the benefits.
These benefits will no doubt make you a better business owner, but they can also help you better your promotional ROI. How? You now have secret, useful information to share. Share it in the right way and you can bring in customers.
