Set the Mood for Yoga Class with Candles

Set the mood for your own practice or give your students the gift of mood lighting with tea light illumination. Besides a great yoga gift idea for Yoga teachers (hint hint!), a new candle brings joy and ambiance to most anyone. Candles bring balance and peace to any room, just like yoga does for the body. Acknowledge the light that shines within you.

Yoga Candles

How to use candles to set the mood for a Yoga class: While students are lying in Savasana (Final Relaxation | Corpse pose), place a tea light candle just inches from the front of their mats. They won’t necessarily see you doing it, but when you instruct them to come into Seated Lotus pose to end class, for example, they’ll open their eyes to a beautiful room illuminated by tiny, sparkling lights. I do this often and my participants just love it! You can also use flameless tea lights if your facility prefers you not to use real fire.
