Unless you live your life off-the-grid, far away from modern society and out of wi-fi range (and if you do… how are you reading this blog right now??), you know that school is back in session. You can probably feel it, too. Maybe you’ve been downloading supply lists for your kids, or reviewing syllabi for your own classes. You might be checking your budget for back to school clothes, filling out a FAFSA, or trying to narrow down extracurricular activities.

Better yet, everyone else is just as sweaty, so no need to feel self-conscious about sweat stains. But don’t get us wrong… hot yoga definitely isn’t for the faint of heart. With temperatures exceeding 100° Fahrenheit and humidity nice and high, these studios are sweat sanctuaries. After finishing a particularly intense sesh (which was no doubt extremely liberating and relaxing) you’re...
