Exploring the world on a summer vacation opens up a wealth of opportunities for intrepid travelers who are open to new experiences. Adventurers can learn of new cultures, see beautiful sites, sample delicious foods and enjoy the world at large. Some vacationers also use this chance to hone their meditative and physical practices in a powerful yet serene new setting. For those practitioners whose yoga and health benefits could use a new setting for inspiration, a trip to the Thai capital of Bangkok could be just what the doctor ordered.

The largest city in the East Asian nation, Bangkok is a global city located on the banks of the west bank of the Chao Phraya River. The city's Thai name, Phra Nakhon, loosely translates to "city of angels," a title that is easy to understand when exploring the beautiful city. With its classic temples which reside alongside modern wonders, a vacation in Bangkok is truly a heavenly experience.

Bangkok was recently named as the best city in the world in a yearly study performed by Travel + Leisure magazine. The study, which draws from ratings relating to a site's amenities as well as its attraction, highlights the city as an accessible and beautiful metropolis that combines the traditional beauty and simplicity of the region with modern skyscrapers, trains and businesses.

Bangkok is a great place to hone one's yoga talents, and those looking for a peaceful spot to practice their asanas will want to head to the Rattanakosin district. As the historic center of the city, Rattanakosin is home to a number of beautiful temples, classic statues and serene gardens that will put travelers' minds at ease and allow them to focus on their breathing and movements.

Though it was founded in the 1980s, Dahn Yoga's basic precepts and techniques are directly descended from methods practiced five millennia ago in East Asia. These precepts include the importance of the mind's partnership with the body, as well as the need for a balanced bond between the two.

Today, thousands of Americans practice Dahn Yoga everyday, many of whom are delightedly trying it for the first time. Taking a little time out of one's day to stretch, breathe, pose and meditate with a gentle smile on one's face can radically change one's mood and outlook.

This blog offers responses to news items that prominently feature Dahn Yoga and its neighborhood centers.
