Naked yoga crazy among Hollywood celebrities



Naked yoga is recently reportedly the new trend among Hollywood and other celebrities.
Unconfirmed reports link Oscar winners Nicolas Cage (Adaptation), Halle Berry (Monster’s Ball), Gwyneth Paltrow (Shakespeare in Love); Oscar nominated Naomi Watts (21 Grams); Golden Globe nominated Jennifer Lopez (Selena); Rita Wilson (My Big Fat Greek Wedding) with naked yoga



The proponents of naked yoga say that it is taboo-breaking, thrill, liberation, unique perspective, profound spiritual and healing experience; unifies body-soul-mind; sheds barriers/inhibitions/masks; provides greater freedom of movement; saves the hassle of buying expensive yoga outfits; offers acceptance of body with all imperfections; makes one feel comfortable in one’s own skin; overcomes weight/body image issue; etc. But they insist that it is not about sex.







Why do celebrities do yoga?

1- Yoga tones and strengthens your body. This will give you lean and long muscles.

2- Yoga relaxes you. While all forms of exercise relax you, but after a yoga session, the feeling is deeper and longer lasting. Celebrities need to relax to keep looking beautiful.

3- Yoga keeps you young. All forms of exercise do, but yoga is a complete exercise and it includes a lot of flexibility. Since it also relaxes your mind, you will also experience mental peace - another key ingredient for eternal beauty.

4- Yoga keeps you healthy. There are many studies that prove that yoga can help alleviate some illness symptoms.

5- If you do yoga regularly you might also get what author and model Christy Turlington calls "the yoga butt."
