The one thing that especially sets this form of yoga apart from the numerous other versions of the Indian <strong>mind\/body training method<\/strong>, is the fact that it is performed in a sauna like, heated room, made to resemble the climate in India. It may sound exhausting &#8211; and it is quite a \u201cno pain, no gain\u201d-experience- but it is the heat that makes it easier to stretch the muscles without overstretching muscles and ligaments. When you are warm, the blood flow to the muscles increases. The function of the organs also gets optimized through the increased <strong>nutrient supply<\/strong> and the release of <strong>toxins.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While the <strong>heat<\/strong> might feel a bit overpowering in the beginning, and it feels like you have a hard time breathing, you quite quickly get used to it. Make sure to listen to your body and don\u00b4t push yourself beyond what\u00b4s reasonable, and you will be fine. Also make sure to drink a lot of <strong>water<\/strong> during the next 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are looking for a workout that is intense, you might want to try it. It is a &#8220;either you love it, or hate it&#8221;\u00a0 kind of thing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/yoga-pose-2.png\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-59899 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/yoga-pose-2-300x246.png\" alt=\"yoga pose 2\" width=\"300\" height=\"246\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Directions\"><\/span>Directions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In <strong>Barcelona<\/strong>, you can practice <strong>Bikram yoga<\/strong> at the following studios:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Bikram Yoga Barcelona<\/a><br \/>\nC\/ Pau Claris 97<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yogalinda.es\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Yogalinda<\/a><br \/>\nc\/ Rosa Sensat, 4<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: none;\"\n    class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-valign-bottom kksr-align-left \"\n    data-id=\"59542\"\n    data-slug=\"\">\n    <div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    <div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 0px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <div class=\"kksr-legend\">\n            <span class=\"kksr-muted\">Rate us!<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the newer trends in yoga is the Bikram yoga.
