Summer solstice, beach and yoga – the perfect trio!
Now summer is definitely here and it simply feels good to be outside and get moving. So in celebration of both the beginning of summer and International Yoga Day, my friend Biddy from YogaVayu and I took the mat to the beach in Scheveningen.
The beach can get really busy there even on weekdays and yes even on nights before people have to get up for work again. Finding a quiet spot there was actually a challenge. But somehow we managed and as soon as we rolled out the mat everything but the sound of the waves disappeared by itself.
For me it was a great reminder to bring in more calm, stillness and focus, especially this time of the year. In summer we tend to forget that there are only so much hours of energy that our body can provide us with. Sleep and regeneration are actually key components to staying healthy and fit.
Biddy from YogaVayu will be holding flow yoga classes at the beach, different outdoor events in the Den Haag area and also at personal training center at DePier in Scheveningen. You can check out her website for her schedule.
Stay fit, stay balanced and Happy Summer everyone!
