Yoga travel is a thing and these instagrammers are nailing it

Right from tips on mindful travelling to performing acrobatic yoga postures in serene locations, these travellers are an amazing trend to tap into if you believe in the transformative power of travel as a medium of self-awareness and fulfilment.

And yes, yoga travel is a real thing. Take a look at these modern travel yogis turning picturesque locations into yoga backgrounds. Started off by doing more than just sightsee while travelling, they discovered the ways self-care travel could truly change one’s everyday life. They are now inspiring their fellow travellers to do the same.

All the more, they don’t come across as forceful or preachy. They bring in a lot of knowledge and fun in pursuing a healthy lifestyle by doing what we love the most — travelling, of course.

Enlightenment means simply to shine light upon. The word guru means remover of darkness. We are all just trying to see in the dark. Be the one who carries the candle. These were my last words from the conversation I had with my good friend and yogi brother @andrew7sealy on the @yogarevealed podcast. We talked about so many great things that are close to my heart, yoga philosophy, breathwork, myofascial meridian sequencing, and so much more. I think I can easily say this is my favorite podcast episode that I’ve been a part of. Andrew had just finished my five day intensive in Bali, and we only had a little time before he left on his next big adventure, so we sat down at his place late at night in the jungle and pulled out the laptop and started talking. Please listen and share this episode. Link in my bio. Wearing @aloyoga ? @fitflexjuli

Dreaming of a warm, sunny beach with soft sand and clear water… Remembering to soak the sun in like a warm embrace and never ever stop playing! ? Happy #ThrowbackThursdayy y’all! What are you daydreaming about today? Monkeying around in my @aloyoga ?

⁣Yoga asks us to check in with our own selves.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I believe that each time we step on our yoga mat, we consciously or subconsciously begin to dive deeper into a journey of self exploration and discovery.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ To ask ourselves the question of how we are feeling in that moment. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Are we present or are we already somewhere else ahead of our own body? ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I see self-exploration is an intimate conversation with our own selves. To truly open up and inquire as to where we are in our physical and mental state of being. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ A moment of honesty. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Self exploration is the first idea and theme we tackle together in our Boho Beautiful Retreat program. It’s such an important part of this journey. And it’s never complete thus making it an ongoing introspective journey in itself. ⁣⁣? ⁣⁣ 7 days until Retreat Program is out…⁣⁣ Click the link in the bio to pre-order today! ⁣ ⁣ ?- @dreamingandwandering ⁣ #bohobeautiful #retreat #selfcare #selfexploration #yogainspiration #yogajourney #yogaeveryday #natureyoga #bohobeautifulyoga #yogateacher #yogastudent #wellnessretreats

?She does not want the world to tell her how to live her life. She does not want the world to put her into a category. She will smile even when not all is good with her. She will believe what should not be. And she will dream wild! She is a bird. She just wants to fly in the wide blue sky! ~Avijeet Das

Stop scrolling for a second. Are your shoulders tense and raised? See if you can release them. Are you clenching your jaw? Open and close your mouth a few times to try to unclench. Are you furrowing your brows without even realizing it? Raise and lower your eyebrows a few times to reset. Are you holding your breath? Take a few deep inhalations and exhalations through your nose and watch your chest rise and fall. That’s all ✌? Have a great day! #srilanka #visitsrilanka #sosrilanka #showlovesrilanka #weligama #southsrilanka

Lolasana (aka Dangling Earring Pose) in the Italian Alps, June 2019. ⁣ ⁣ The peak in the background is Santa Elisabetta, which Jane and I had just climbed not long before Jane took this photo of me back down at the base of the mountain. This is a pose that eludes a lot of people.⁣ ⁣ My #YogaTips for this pose today are:⁣ ⁣ ▪️Really lean forward, taking weight into your hands.⁣ ▪️Keep your knees as close to your chest as you can as you lift your hips higher.⁣ ▪️Lean forward a bit more. ⁣ ▪️Engage your core, and bend your knees to lift your feet off the ground.⁣ ▪️Breathe! And come down.⁣ ⁣ Hope this helped! If it did, or if you have questions about this pose please ask below is the comments. Namaste. ?? ⁣ ⁣ ??‍♂️Btw I am teaching in ?? Norway (Asker and Oslo) and ?? Hamburg in September, then ?? Bali and ?? Saigon in October.
