A recognised practice to improve strength, mobility and overall physical health, yoga also aids in mental well-being and mindfulness.
Far too often we cruise through life without paying attention to the present—yoga cultivates a kind of spiritual awareness that opens the mind to a higher level of consciousness. The same could be said for travel. Taking time out of your busy day-to-day lives to travel and experience the world opens your eyes to the little beautiful things in life. Let Health and Fitness Travel, experts in bespoke wellness holidays guide you as you journey to the best singles yoga retreats, from Asia to Europe, and combine your love for travel with your passion for yoga.
