The end of the year holidays are a good opportunity to slow down and catch up with some long reads. I have a habit of bookmarking all the interesting articles I come across, especially if they are related to the business and trends in wellness and yoga. Some of these articles I read when sitting in the bus or train I always have some unread ones stored away.
Here’s a selection of yoga and wellbeing related articles I have read and liked over the past months. Some I have already posted on my Facebook page or Linked In, some are new ones I have only recently come across. Catch up with the latest analysis and trends with the below list!
Wellbeing is a big business these days, and one full of contradictions and extremes as well. The Atlantic published this interesting analysis, “The Art of Woke Wellness”, in November 2018.
Want to see what may or may not be big in Wellness in 2019? Read the Well & Good list here, write down in the comments what you see taking off (and what not) and why, and we will check out them list next time this year!
Talking of trends, I am so happy to see this one taking off: Good old stretching! “Even just 20 minutes of stretching a week can counteract damage and prevent potential injuries.”
If you have looked at any London yoga studios schedule lately, chances are you have seen Gong Baths featured in the programme. Read here the Guardian’s article on what Gong Baths are all about!
This one is just weird for me: Technology to “track my yoga performance” is not something I feel anybody needs, as the whole point of yoga practise is to internalise and, well, not measure anything. Just because I have an opinion about it does not however mean that there is not a market for it so here you go, see for yourself!
Yoga pants – sorry, athleisure wear – at workplace? I am sure you have an opinion about that. Here is some background to to the topic. Feel free to drop your thoughts on this trend in the comments!
