Now that’s something we can get behind!

Let us paint what is likely an all too familiar picture for many of us: you’re stuck in an airport, waiting for your final connecting flight back home, and you’re exhausted. There’s been far too little sleep, far too many inconveniences along the way, and all you want to do is relax, unwind, and get some peace and quiet.

Now you can! A growing number of airports are providing a quiet, calm room specifically designed for yoga and meditation during your travels. Some of the first airports to get on board with this zen movement have been San Francisco, Heathrow and O’Hare, and now even more are recognizing the amazing effects of yoga and are adding their own yoga rooms.

San Francisco Airport Yoga Room

These rooms are particularly beneficial for large airports where connecting flights and long layovers are common, and airports have been increasingly aware of the stress that can come from these long, arduous journeys. Their response? A place where travelers can rejuvenate and revitalize in a healthy way for body and mind.

If you’re a traveling yogi, we highly recommend checking out your airport before traveling to see what accommodations they offer – as well as bringing an eye pillow along for even more relaxation!

All Barefoot Yoga eye pillows come with a zippered carry case, which makes them a soothing and relaxing prop easy to carry with you anywhere. We also recommend bringing along some Stretchy Mat Straps, a lightweight Sari Pattern Yoga Mat Bag, and some easy-to-use Yoga Mat Wipes to help keep the props you bring on your travels organized, smelling great, and easy to access!

Whether you’re simply hopping on your bike to get to class or hopping on a plane, Barefoot Yoga has got you covered. Come visit us today at barefootyoga.com!
