According to Sadhguru, yoga\u00a0 practises\u00a0should happen\u00a0during sunrise and sunset since everything is in a state of flux. If you practice at that time, your ability to transcend limitations is better because your life energies are in a state of flux.<\/p>\n

Your senses will be heightened as you explore the wonders of outdoor yoga. Take in the sound of the flowing water, the smell of fresh grass and the feel of a light breeze as you enjoy the summer sunset.<\/p>\n
