Today I want to share with you about my experience of exploring Bikram Yoga.

Overall, I am very sport’s loving personality & was doing different sport’s activities since my very early age.  Mostly I am fan of active and high intensity work outs like less Mills Programmes: Grit, CX 30, BodyPump, BodyAttack as well as running & CrossFit. With my normal routine, I am exercising about 3-7 times a week & about once a week I used to integrate “normal” yoga for stretching, relaxation & peace of mind.

I was pretty happy with my sport routine & was not looking forward to differentiate it, however, at one point I decided to go and try Bikram yoga by myself.

The reasons behind my decision was pretty simple. I saw “wonderful miraculous” changes happened to many people I know of, who started practising Bikram yoga on frequent basis.

To be more clear and specific, one person at my workplace, was working as Sales Manager for about 7 years without any promotions, etc and within few months after starting practicing Bikram yoga, he moved to different country as International Sales Director, stepping up on totally new level with his career; another person was working at Director of a big department and was pretty successful; after starting practice of Bikram yoga almost every day, he found even better job and moved overseas; Another girl, all the sudden, just after few classes of practice, got romantic proposal with very beautiful ring; before that she was in relationship for many years without moving anywhere. I can go on and on with examples, but pretty much, after putting all things together & thoughts, Bikram yoga makes things happened, so I  decided that I should give it a go & try hot yoga by myself and see what’s will happen next.

To be honest, my first class was very challenging and I had no idea of what I was doing and was thinking to leave the room ASAP. The only reason, I stayed, because door to the classroom was locked from inside and it was very impolite just to take my mat and leave. However, to my surprise, with every following class, it was becoming easier and easier to complete and after about 4 classes, I started really enjoying the process.

What interesting things I found out while practicing:

  1. No matter which part of the world you are taking the class, it always will be the same class with same exercise sequence: 26 yoga poses and 2 breathing exercises. It seems a bit boring at first, but you can really work out on the quality of the poses and get better stretching with the time.
  2. Hot yoga is very popular between males rather than females: more than half of the class room are filled my men and they are actually very attractive ones. The only other class, I saw that many males on a floor is Body Pump (lifting class).
  3. After every single class, skin feels just amazing and very hydrated & soft. And I am talking about face. Women can really appreciate the positive impact on how good ther skin looks and feels.
  4. The more classes you do, the more it’s addictive.
  5. After class, you don’t want to eat, no matter what time of the day it is. Appetite is getting away or much reduced and you have desire for healthier food options.
  6. You are losing interest for drinking alcohol. Yes, that’s right, you just don’t want it, even glass of wine is not on to do list after busy day.
  7. You are getting miracles happening to your normal life.
  8. Very interesting changes are happening to emotions & feelings (e.g., I started to feel and see many things differently, with totally new point of view on a things; at one stage, I was very overcoming with my feelings related to my past, I believe it was kind of healing process for my conscious or something).
  9. I believe practising of hot yoga helps you to be a better person.

If you feel encouraged and want to try, I have tips of how to go thought the first classes:

  1. Get comfy outfit. It might be shorts and bra or it also might be capri / long tights with top (as long as you are comfortable with your body during awkward possess).
  2. Drink before getting to class
  3. Be in “ready to go mode” at least 10 min before the class. Doors to the classroom might be locked with no access for late arrivals.
  4. If you feel dizzy during the class, just stop doing exercise for a min or two and lie down on your back to calm down
  5. Bring your fresh face towel with you. During the class, it might be very handy due to extensive sweating
  6. Bring your mat and big towel. You can hire both of them but I found it much more hygienically to use your own mat (no other people’s bacteria, traces of sweat on your mat). You need to cover mat to protect yourself from being slept over.

Overall, I found that Bikram Yoga is something really awesome and worth to be integrated to normal fitness routine, and it brings many positive changes to get better life as well as to feel better. Especially, nothing can be better than Bikram Yoga on a cold winter or raining day.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you found here what you was looking for. My intention is to share my knowledge and experience with those who need it and I really hope it will help you a bit on your journey to Perfect You.

Today’s world is not the same as the world of our parents and grand parents.

Most of us are very ambitious and we want to achieve so many things in our lives and career might be very important part of our dreams (as in many cases , our job pays for lifestyle we have and/or wish to have).  Another words, figure with desired number of zeros coming into our bank account might make  many of our dreams happen much faster.  Money make it easy to travel, buy favourite brands of clothes & all you need beauty stuff, own house in desirable location with fantastic interior/exterior, get that car of your dream and of course get that something special that only you want.

Besides that, at some point, we might stuck all the sudden  in one position for a good while and don’t seeing any light at the end of the tunnel.

After struggling for some time, we might  just give up on our career dreams and think that that’s it. BUT……

  1. NEVER GIVE UP. So many examples saying to us that success comes to those who get up after each fail
  2. Take holidays or just weekend away to beautiful destination. It will help you to relax and re-think with fresh mind about many things: your life, your small and big goals, your dreams, your needs and many other things. You probably noticed that the moment you step away from your normal routine, in many cases  you was getting very important phone call, txt and/or email providing you great opportunity for something you really need.http://instagram.com/p/12tU1UG0yr/
  3. When you calm, relax and in a great state of mind, make (update, revise) the list with your career dreams (do not limit yourself and think big)
  4. Make display board with your career dreams and display it where you see it the most often: you choose, it might be fridge, wall opposite your bed, living room, etc.  Its many recommendations how to do it on the net. However, simple way is to buy big colourful sheet, take all o your magazines and cut out pictures which reflect your dreams in some way
  5. Every morning and night spend at least 10 min visualising your career dreams and make it very clear to your mind that they are already are achieved. Imagination must be so real that you must feel that you already got it. E.G. if you want to be CEO of your company, you must see everyday morning meetings with your directors, problems you face, discussing about release of the new products, etc
  6. In your room, house, garden find your career sector (Northern corner for Northern hemisphere countries and Southern corner for Southern Hemisphere countries) and place there fountain, aquarium and/or picture with element of water. Also It will be great to place there that something special for you which you make you feel that your career goals are achieved; and/or place there photos of people which made significant achievements in area you operate (e.g. if you working in IT – Bill Gates, fashion industry  – one of the famous fashion designers).http://instagram.com/p/040j7Pm0_O/
  7. Clean your living space from all clutter: all the clothes you don’t wear anymore, or clothes with smaller/bigger size give to those who need it; destroy all notes from University which you wont need again in the next year or next 5 years, all broken dishes, all food cans from the kitchen with expire due date, etc. Special place which require urgent attention is storage room – do not afraid to get rid of that or do garage sale. All unwanted stock must go!
  8. Stay positive no matter what. Unintentional everyone is always in favour positive people rather than negative. Think about it.
  9. Give others what you seek. If you are after promotion, help other people to get promotion; if you are after skills development, help other to develop their skills. It might sounds very strange, but that will do wonders in your life
  10. Change your life style for a better one. You might enrol for yoga class or you might start running every morning.  New activity will help to clear your mind and give free space for something new and exciting in your life.
  11. Find something that inspire you and come back to that something again and again.  You must believe / retrieve faith in your dreams.
  12. Read motivational and inspirational books. E.G. Think Bigger by Michael Hill, You’ll See it When You Believe it by Wayne W. Dyer, The Seven Spiritual Laws Of Success by Dr Deepak Chopra and it so many of other great book to choose.
  13. Watch motivational documentary and movie / movies which touch your heart and make you remember why you started all of that  and fight for your dreams again. E.G. Famous Secret by Rhonda Byrne, shows of Oprah, etc
  14. Fake it until you make it
  15. Celebrate Success. Its very important step to acknowledge your success and don’t forget to thank others who helped you to get there. People value appreciation same way you like to hear how special you are 🙂http://instagram.com/p/1cuVHWG08E/
  16. Be Better Person Every Day

I hope that a little something from me will help you to achieve your career dreams and get income you wish.

That topic is not directly related with the vision of Beauty and Gadgets, however, its indirectly related to beauty of the life, so I thought my intention to share my vision with many females will help those who need it.
