🧘 International Yoga Day 🧘

Today is International Yoga Day, and we're taking a moment to celebrate this incredible practice.

Yoga is an ancient mind-body practice originating in India that combines physical postures, breathing techniques, and meditation. 🌬️

Practicing yoga on a regular basis offers a wide array of wellness benefits, including increased flexibility, muscle strength, and improved posture. It is widely used to lower blood pressure, alleviate chronic back pain, and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. ☀️

Yoga is available at both Active Lifestyles Stroud and Dursley, guided by our expert instructors.

⚠️ High temperatures and water safety ⚠️

Higher weather brings with it temptation to head to the water, making it more important than ever to be aware of water safety.

Key things to remember 👇
❌ No lifeguard, no swim - regardless of your swimming experience
🌊 Lakes and canals are cold, deep and unpredictable, with hidden dangers below; without a lifeguard, fun can turn fatal.

🛟 The Water Safety Code
1️⃣ Stop and think
2️⃣ Stay together
3️⃣ Call 999 in an emergency
4️⃣ Float on your back if you get into trouble

Together, we can enjoy swimming safely this summer.

🚨 Parents - know the risks of open water swimming 💦

If you’re a parent and you’re dropping your child off at a lake, river or beach that doesn’t have a lifeguard, you may be putting your child at risk.

Ensuring that your child only swims where there is a lifeguard is the best way you can help them to enjoy the water safely this summer.

Take the time to talk to your child about the water safety code, and always remember - no lifeguard, no swim. 🛟

👉 Wild swimming is not risk free

We know that wild and open water swimming can be appealing in the hot summer weather, but it’s important to be aware of the risks regardless of your age or experience. 🏊

If you do want to wild or open water swim, make sure that you’re doing so in designated and supervised areas for your own safety, and always remember - no lifeguard, no swim. 🛟
