Why is the room heated? The room is heated to warm your muscles, to prevent injuries and to allow for a deeper release in your body. Sweating also helps to flush the toxins and impurities from your body.

Reasons for heating the room:

  1. Enhances blood circulation and vasolidilations of the capillaries weaving around your muscles.
  2. The more blood delivered to the body, will in turn, help increase the absorption of nutrients and the elimination of toxins.
  3. The warmed muscles combined with the movement of yoga will more effectively stimulate the lymphatic systems, the toxin dump system of the body and increases lymphatic drainage.
  4. When blood passes through warm muscles, it allows oxygen in the blood to release easier from the hemoglobin. Remember oxygen is one of the primary antioxidants of the body. The increase in oxygen purifies the body.
  5. Warm muscles = elastic muscles. Elastic muscles stretch in a fluid like way allowing for a greater range of motion during stretching and yoga. Cold muscles do not absorb shock or impact as well. The more elastic your muscles are the less susceptible you are to injury.

But, I am not flexible …

This is the most common misconception that prevents people from experiencing yoga. It is not about how flexible you are. It is about stretching your body and quieting your mind, and healing the soul. So, do not worry about being flexible. The more inflexible you are the more you need yoga. You become flexible by doing yoga.
