While yoga offers great physical and mental balance, the place you practice it is also important. Natural backdrops including deserts provide some ideal benefits; here’s why!
Ideal Solitude
In order to practice yoga peacefully, you do need a quiet environment free from noise and distractions. For example, if you are planning on an Abu Dhabi desert tour which also includes some yoga, you need not worry about getting disturbed from traffic or your neighbour’s stereo!
One with Nature
Yoga in any natural setting gives you a chance to be truly one with nature. Places like the desert let you connect with natural elements which are very much a part of yoga postures as well. For example, when doing yoga in the desert at properties like Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara, you can do a “sun salutation” in actual sight of the sun and feel its warmth!
Become More Aware
Practising yoga in the desert is likely to awaken your senses, helping you focus more as well. You are bound to be more attuned to all the elements around you which bring with it a sense of peace and relaxation.
Helps in Meditation
The perfect complement to yoga is meditation, and its effects are boosted in a setting like a desert where you can block out all the “noise” and get in touch with yourself. Amidst this hauntingly beautiful landscape, you will find stress melt away, replaced by a state of inner tranquillity.
