Yoga alone, the + and the –
Yoga alone: the +
- No possibility to judge or compare yourself with anyone.
- You build a trust towards your body.
- You learn to assess your own needs and what feels important.
Yoga alone: the –
- It might be hard to get started.
- If you don’t have a teacher, you might get lost or hurt yourself.
- You need to have the discipline to set a time and space.
It’s your choice.
We are all so different. We have different bodies, different desires and needs.
So please, decide what feels good. Practicing yoga in a group, alone, or not at all is your own choice.
