Nowadays, Hatha Yoga is perceived as an exercise form. But, day by day many yoga practitioners are looking forward to becoming real yogis, then we´ll show you 5 tips to be a better yogi.

Changing the only-sporty perception given to yoga is an onerous task.

Hatha Yoga was not created as a sport, it was not about losing weight, fixing your back, or getting healthy.

Nevertheless, the amazing results gotten by the practice of yoga have enriched this reputation towards yoga.

1. It´s not only about twisting and stretching…

To be a better yogi you must understand that bending and twisting your body has thousands of benefits for your physical health, but there is much more to understand around it.

Some sense of being a little more than the physical body is the most important thing.

Even if you are not like that 24 hours of the day, at least a few moments in a day you should be a yogi.

If you keep it alive, things that you do not understand, things that you have never experienced, will happen to you.

That means you are allowing another dimension to function and change your mind and body perception.

2. Just start trying…

If you do not try to be a better yogi in some way, life will put you through all kinds of things.

That is why most human beings choose to hide from life.

When someone cannot talk to more than three people in their life, when they cannot walk on the street with an open heart, loving everything that they see and cannot see, they are obviously hiding from life.

Living happier and healthier spreading all your positive energy towards the universe.
