There's something about Bikram yoga that means you feel the benefits immediately. If I ever have backache, only a Bikram yoga session will fix it. Immediately. It's the heat and the sweat and the detoxing. And the fact that you know what to expect because it's always the same set of postures in the same order, but somehow you experience them differently depending on your physical and mental state. I just wish I had the time and money to do it everyday. But I need variety, so that would never happen..let's be realistic here.  Sometimes I just can't balance in a posture because my brain is off assessing all the other people in the room, or I just don't feel like looking at myself in the mirror very much. Other times, the focus and concentration is exemplary and I am proud of myself. Except, it's all about letting go of judgment really innit. Anyway, it's fun being pretty flexible and getting into positions I wouldn't have been anywhere near 10 years ago when I first went. www.bikramyoga.co.uk
