The Travelling Yoga/Pilates Mat

No matter where I travel to, I enjoy and well need to keep my fitness practice, my back depends on it. Most recently, my hubby and I went to Nevis, a little island off of St.Kitt’s, absolutely breathtaking. Right in the middle of the island is a volcanic mountain; Mount Nevis, it always stands tall and proud. For the week, I planted my mat on our porch and found my favourite moves, with the mountains in the background inspiring me.

I guess I could have spent more time at the beach on a lounge chair basking in the sun, oh we did do that but we also took the oportunity to climb those inspiring mountains. I’m so glad I took time out every morning to stretch my body and center myself, I felt more mindful of the beautiful surrendings and agile in some very steep precarious (downrigh dangerous) peeks.

Time away is good for the soul; without t.v, phones and dinners to make. To each their own but for me and a lot of my clients, when I travel, time on the mat is equally important.
