As avid practitioners may have told you, yoga has a multitude of benefits. It can be especially helpful for managing stress and anxiety. This is thanks to the practice’s focus on your breath. These breathing exercises guide your body’s movement, whilst keeping your mind in harmony. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is a stressful situation in and of itself. With schools and offices opening back up, you may be likely to face more stress soon. Yoga can be practiced solo or with your family. Tackle your worries head-on by indulging in at-home or socially distanced yoga in Hoboken and Jersey City. 

Although the days of crowded and sweaty yoga spaces may not be in our near future, local studios are currently offering a variety of safe ways to attend their classes. Whether you’re looking for a way to remain productive at home or stay active, yoga is a great practice to learn (or relearn) after a long quarantined hiatus.
