Active Lifestyle - YITL

This month we launched in Yoga in the Lanes, with a fun packed day of free yoga classes and healthy food from You Juice to celebrate. The YITL yoga school is based in central Brighton and is the home of hot yoga among a mix of other yoga practices, such as Yin, Ashtanga and Conditioning. All classes help develop your posture, strength and flexibility.

You can find our ethical activewear in the reception accompanying Chant Malas beautiful handmade beads. The two brands compliment each other as they both hold Eco friendly values and handmade qualities, both being produced in Brighton.




The day welcomed all levels and every class was filled with both regulars at the school and beginners, supporting all on their yoga journey. A few classes offered yoga demonstrations by the teachers (Bridgett Ann the joint founder of the school with husband Simon). Which is much better than any YouTube video, giving a full insight into each posture and flow.


Each attendee was offered healthy juices (ginger shots) and breakfast smoothies on entrance and juice cocktails at the reception in the evening. The collaboration of healthy food, classes and activewear was a treat for all participants and encouraged living a fit and healthy lifestyle. Because we all know the benefits and joy living a active lifestyle can bring to our body and mind.

Active Lifestyle - Essential Oil Therapy

Image
You can use essential oils in 3 ways; topically, internally and aromatically. Whilst oils can be a perfect relaxation method they can also be used to strengthen your immune system and physical health. Essential oils use Lavender, Melaleuca, Lemon, Oregano, Peppermint, Ginger and Frankincense (along with many more) to help the digestive system, sooth skin irritations, clear sinuses and relieve muscle pain. If you live a healthy lifestyle there is nothing worse then your own body stopping you from being active. To prevent this from happening we need to take all precautions and examine the different possibilities that may protect our wellbeing. Natural remedies are the oldest form of healing, they were used before doctors and chemists. Before the 13th century we used natural ointment as a form of medicine, the majority of the general public would go to their local witch doctor for these ointments. However this changed after the 13th century as the church branded them as magic

I honestly don’t mind it. Of course I wish there were more women in the sport but personally it doesn’t put me off that I mostly train and hang out with guys. Even thoug

Active Lifestyle - Summer Smoothies

Image
If your based in England you know how relieved we are to see the sun! Summer time has come at last and the weather is brighter and warmer. So what better way to cool down then a smoothie, a delicious way to stay healthy. Whilst in England smoothie bowls have just been discovered, it's not new to warmer parts of the world where you can get summer fruits all year round. Places like Bali (Indonesia & Asia)  have fresh produce at there finger tips but this is only because people source their fruit from local farmers markets, which makes the produce really organic and natural (not from local super-markets like us Westerners). So if your thinking about making your own, it's really worth going to a farmers market at the right time of year or grow some berries in your back garden (we all went blueberry picking as children, right? Well it's time to start that past time again). The best smoothie's are always made with fresh fruit and produce (nuts, coconut chips and
