At Rakta Hot Yoga, we believe in bio-individuality when it comes to wellness. We don't believe that one approach serves all when it comes to nutrition, diet preferences, and health. We offer a personalized holistic approach to wellness and strive to help clients achieve their wellness goals.

The mission of the wellness team is to combine professional knowledge and individualized advice to help you develop healthy values and lifestyle choices that work for you.We want you to question how your approach to health and wellness is working for you instead of getting hung up on rigid rules.

Hot yoga has numerous benefits for the body. Infrared hot yoga uses far infrared heat which is part of the light spectrum that we can't see but can feel. Infrared heats us without warming the air around us, penetrating the body at 3 cm under the skin. As your core temperature increases, so does your heart rate.

Always listen to your body and take care of yourself. Don't worry about keeping up with other students in class, everyone practices at their own level. Eat a light meal two hours before class and drink water up to 30 minutes before class. Many people start a yoga practice because they notice they are losing flexibility and range of motion.

Impermanence is the state of lasting for only a limited period of time. A very dear friend of mine is moving away from this valley in just two weeks. She is relocating to Pennsylvania which seems awfully far away. As I think back on the many fun times we've had together, I realize I never expected this past spring would have been the last time we rode horses through pastures of baby calves.
