What benefits have you received from a regular practice of Bikram yoga?
Since I've started Bikram Yoga I have noticed that I sleep better than I used to. I also have more energy throughout my day and feel more "alert". Overall I simply feel better. My tight hips have gotten better since practicing Bikram yoga. What I have noticed is that when I do practice more often (every 2nd day for me) my past injury (hip flexor strain) doesn't seem to bother me. I also feel I handle stress better when I practice regularly.
What is the single most important reason that keeps you coming back into the hot room?
The overall wellness feeling I get from Bikram Yoga.
