New Year Yoga Intentions

Setting intentions for the new year can be a very personal and spiritual practice so i encourage you to take some time with this.

New year yoga intentions. Create a space of self love for yourself. Whether you do yoga at a studio a gym or at home it s common practice to set an intention for your time on the mat. You can do it all at once or spread it out over a few days.

Taking time for reflection and considering the opportunity that comes with a brand new year requires a pause. While a resolution often zeros in on a perceived negative aspect of ourselves as in i want to lose weight so no more chocolate chip cookies or ice cream or cheese a sankalpa explores what s behind the thought or feeling i crave chocolate chip cookies or ice cream or cheese when i m feeling stressed or sad. Like a new year s resolution an intention names something you re seeking to attain for yourself and or others.
