We asked Blackberry Farm Yoga Instructor Lauren Logan for her insight on the benefits of yoga, and beyond just the practice, the benefits of the environment you do it in.

“I think we hear a lot about the benefits of yoga being things like increased flexibility, greater balance, and reduced blood pressure. And while those are all true and awesome, the most beneficial result of yoga practice that I see is the ability to reset your internal environment.

Starting with a calm, nourishing and lush natural external environment, like the atmosphere available at Blackberry Farm and Blackberry Mountain, sets the perfect stage for using yoga as not just exercise, but more as a healing tool to reconnect with your true inner nature, your highest self.

The yoga and wellness program at Blackberry goes beyond the physical practice of yoga to bring in an awareness of breath, mindset and personal energy. The passionate, knowledgeable instructors here see each yoga class as an opportunity to give guests an experience of the stability and calmness of their spiritual center so that they know this calm center is always available to them. And with focus, they can come back to it any time, in any environment.”
