Why is everyone doing hot yoga these days? Well, hot yoga has lots of benefits. One of the main ones is detoxification. Your skin is one of the best waste disposal systems in your body. The kidneys and liver always get the credit but your skin is an equally effective organ for removing waste, especially toxic wastes. It does this through sweat. Doing Yoga in a hot room promotes sweating. The internal heat generated by doing yoga combined with a heat of between 41 and 43 degrees C. will bring on a lots of sweating. Sweating is a great way for the body to release toxins through the pores of the skin. The skin converts toxins from fats into water soluble compounds, that are excreted through your sweat.
While all forms of exercise help the body to eliminate toxins, yoga is perfectly suited to this process. Yoga postures all focus on stretching and compressing the body, encouraging the flow and good function of the waste removal departments in the body. The fact that the body is being pushed, pulled, and turned in every which way aids the body in the removal of harmful toxins found deep in the body’s tissues, that other forms of exercise simply do not penetrate.
