What should I drink before and after Yoga?

Ever wondered what you should drink before and after your yoga practice? Why not try lemon and ginger tea?

The presence of high levels of antioxidants in ginger helps to strengthen immunity. It also reduces free radicals and increases blood circulation in the body which is vital for optimum health.

Compared to other warm beverages you might opt for, ginger tea can be consumed at any time of day as it is 100% caffeine free. It works well as a pick-me-up first thing after morning yoga, but you may also find it helps after a meal to ease digestion.

Or if lemon and ginger tea doesn’t suit the palette, why not opt for a healthy fresh juice? Combine any spare fruit you have around your home and mix them together to create a flavourful, appetising beverage.

There are many benefits to consuming fruit juices – from recovering your energy to replenishing your hydration levels after your practice.
