Tara Stiles on Practicing Yoga to Improve Self Awareness, Increase Confidence, Reduce Stress, Relieve Tension and Optimize Your Health (Without Attending a Single Class)

Practicing Yoga to Improve Self Awareness, Increase Confidence, Reduce Stress, Relieve Tension and Optimize Your Health (Without Attending a Single Class)!!!

 

Today’s conversation is going to be relaxing, soothing and empowering because we are talking about yoga with global wellness expert and founder of Strala Yoga, Tara Stiles. Tara brings a revolutionary approach to being, moving and healing to inspire millions around the world with her relatable perspective with regards to yoga, meditation and movement. 

 

Now before you press pause or exit because you aren’t interested in yoga, I invite you to continue to listen to the “Yoga Rebel.”

 

The New York Times recognizes Tara as such because of her unconventional approach to this sometimes intimidating subject. She isn’t into the dogma of yoga or forcing you to do a bunch of poses or making you chant. Again, if that’s your jam, no judgment from either one of us. I would say that for most people their resistance to yoga is because of the time commitment, inflexibility, feeling insecure, not feeling aligned with the spirituality aspect, etc.

 

After hearing today’s episode, I can promise you that these challenges will be diminished as Tara’s approach is efficient, relatable, empowering and practical for anyone looking to reap the incredible benefits of yoga. Yoga can reduce stress, relieve tension, improve your confidence, help you sleep better, gain flexibility and so much more. 

 

The focus of our discussion today centers around what the average person can do if they want to get started with yoga and incorporate it into their daily routine or regular workout program. We break down the many walls or barriers that I mentioned previously and why spending just a few minutes a day practicing yoga or even taking one breath can be beneficial. Tara shares why “the better you move” within the poses matters more than how far you stretch. We discuss what you can do to reduce tension and stiffness and Tara shares what she does to help manage her stress. We go "all in" on the topic of hot yoga including the dangers and why Tara thinks most people should stay away from it.
