Yoga on a budget: You guide to find your flow with limited dough.
A few years ago, I had just started grad school and found myself in need of a workout routine. The pandemic had recently shut down my university, and along with my fellow graduate students, I was tasked with learning to both teach and study entirely online. I was staring at a computer screen for twelve hours out of the day – the rest of the time was spent consuming any and all coverage of the pandemic, searching for good news. Meanwhile, my body was shouldering a lot of my stress and anxiety.
When searching for my ideal yoga ensemble, I had two requirements: each piece had to be under $20, and I had to like the way I looked in it – meaning it had to fit right. A few places where I found luck include:Like most local thrift shops, mine had a dedicated activewear section with leggings, athletic shorts, and sports bras in a variety of colors and sizes for a fraction of the brand price.
If you’re in need of a makeshift yoga mat, try putting a towel or blanket on the ground to provide some extra cushioning for your hands. The only con to this option is that it can be difficult to keep these “mats” in position as you move from pose to pose. If you have a bathmat, you could put one underneath your hands to keep them from slipping.
One of the first yoga communities I found online was Yoga with Adriene, a YouTube channel run by yogi and entrepreneur Adriene Mishler, whose mission is “to connect as many people as possible through high-quality free yoga videos.” Her videos come in a range of lengths, skill levels, and overall moods – whether you want to fit in a quick ten-minute flow on your lunch break or a sixty-minute full-body workout, Adriene has it all.
