Yoga is great. It has a lot of benefits for your mind and your body. You get to de-stress and meditate, all while working on your body’s strength, flexibility, and overall health. Unfortunately, traveling and working out often don’t mix. It’s hard to slip into a routine and do your practice, especially if your destination doesn’t even have a small spot where you can do yoga. And we all know that when you go on without practicing for a couple of days, your next practice will be a bit more difficult than usual. But don’t worry! We’ve got your back. If you’re visiting Ontario and are swamped with many things to do in this province, you can still find the time to meditate by staying at a yoga retreat.
