The great thing about yoga and your yoga mats is that yoga creates adventures, experiences, and unforgettable moments. Wether you bring your yoga mat to the mountains and check out the view of the city, or just do yoga at a local park, yoga is a way to stop, relax, and help you focus.
In psychology this state is called "Awareness." Awareness is the state of noticing your surroundings without judging your surroundings. Yoga on yoga mats is an amazing way to help you focus more on the things that really matter in life, rather than the things that do not matter.
Yoga, combined with relaxation and breathing, can aide in mental focus at work, on a project, or on matters of the spirit. It is a way to stop, shut-up, and focus. Medical doctors call this relaxing. Others call it meditation. Either way it is something that your body needs just as much as rest.
The next time that there is just too much going on in your life just stop, relax, and be aware of your surroundings without judging your thoughts and surroundings. You will not see Ghandi, but your body will thank you for the rest, meditation, and new focus in your life.
