Reinforcement and Flexibility
Yoga is known for its postures that involve all the muscles of the body. Asanas, or postures, strengthen muscles, improve posture and develop flexibility. By practicing yoga regularly, you may see an improvement in your overall physical strength and greater ease in your daily movements.

Hemp has anti-inflammatory properties: it can be very useful as a supplement after your yoga session. You can for example use the Miracle Balm with CBD, which will soothe muscle tension or Goodbye Bobo Antidote : the combined action of CBD and active ingredients such as turmeric will relieve your joint and muscle pain.
Stress management and emotional balance.
Yoga is a practice that can improve focus and mental clarity. By focusing on the breath and being fully present in each pose, yoga promotes mindfulness. For some people, yoga provides the experience of letting go needed to clear your mind and focus on the essentials. Yoga is often recommended as a complementary practice to manage emotions and promote emotional balance. The flowing movements of yoga, combined with conscious breathing, help calm the nervous system and regulate one's emotions. Oly Be goes even further by offering a women's yoga workshop, which takes into account the female hormonal balance in the practice of yoga, in particular all the phases crossed during the menstrual cycle.
Yoga is also one of the solutions that we recommend against stress in our ebook for the Great Stress Study, a true guide to a more peaceful life. Indeed, various studies have shown that a regular yoga practice can reduce stress and anxiety by activating the parasympathetic nervous system. This tempers the body's involuntary functions (always the same like breathing, blood circulation, etc.) and tends to reduce the excessive release of hormones and calm the body: this is the relaxation response. ! Slow heart rate, lower blood pressure, soothed digestion, sexual appetite... Yoga is therefore a good solution to activate the parasympathetic system and lead a more serene life.
The use of hemp for a unique yogic experience.
Adding hemp to your yoga practice can act as extra support by promoting deeper relaxation and reducing anxiety. Let's take an example: A 2018* Italian study looked at the effects of Cannabis HE on the human brain. Although it was conducted on a limited number of subjects, this study presents striking results:
After inhaling Cannabis EO for 5 minutes, test subjects reported feeling “calm, relaxed, and energetic, said they were in a good mood, felt hungry, and people with headaches felt no more pain”. The self-assessment test conducted on these subjects shows an increase in the level of relaxation and general well-being.
These results are explained by the terpene composition of this essential oil. Limonene exhibits anxiolytic action (via serotonergic 5-HT receptors), as does β-caryophyllene (via CB2 receptors) and myrcene exhibits sedative, analgesic and relaxing action.
Thus, the subtle and delicate smell of hemp can make your yoga session even more effective. For this, you can use in your room La Vie en Vert, our interior mist with terpenes to ward off bad vibes and fully enjoy your session.
