Although yoga does not require wearing certain clothes, it is still important to wear your best and feel good during a session or practice. The yoga clothes that you should wear should make you feel comfortable and self-confidant.
Yoga clothing should be loose, stretchable and made of cotton so that it will breath. The movements in yoga session are quite hard and will likely cause you to perspire.
If you wear good yoga clothing you will not be distracted by any discomfort so you'll be able to better focus on your yoga asana.
Yoga clothing includes shorts, sweat shirts, leotards and tights. The type yoga clothing you want will depend upon your figure any your comfort level. If you wear stiff yoga clothing, you will not be able to move freely and it will adversely affect your concentration during practice.
If the weather is hot, you need to wear those clothes that do not cover much. You can wear shorts and tank tops so that sweat will not stick to you.
If you are doing yoga in a cold and air conditioned room, you can wear long sleeves or three-fourths so that it can cover some part of your body and not feel the cold. If you wear short yoga clothing, you will surely be frozen by the cold and not feel comfortable anymore.
Yoga clothing is particular with the type of yoga you are practicing. Bikram Yoga which is known as the “hot yoga”, of course wearing shorts is the most appropriate outfit. It allows air to pass through and keeps your skin breathable and comfortable because air can pass through which prevents irritation and distractions.
Your yoga clothes will depend upon your taste and style. If you are trendy, choose the yoga clothing that is multi-colored so that it reflects your individuality and uniqueness. If you are harmonious, choose the yoga clothing that goes with the nature or you can use color combination in your top and pants.
If you are a nature lover, choose yoga clothing that looks fresh or with flowers printed all over.
Keep in mind that choosing yoga clothing reflects your personality and the real you. Also, understand that you have to carry and handle yourself properly in order to gain confidence and
credibility. It’s okay to be conscious because it will affect your practice.
If you don’t like the clothes you are wearing today, you might not even perform well and your practice will all be a mess. Yoga clothing is worth the effort to keep up a high self esteem. So before going out or before going to your yoga class, look your self in the mirror first and check out your yoga clothing.
