Cannabis Plant and Yoga - Thoughts?

I have a question. In Hinduism, meditation is connected to the deity Shiva, and in the mythology and scripture, he is connected with meditation, yoga and cannabis plant. In some other scriptures, cannabis plant is said to be sacred. Sadhus (ascetics/monks) often smoke cannabis plant. Yet, other scriptures and people say we should be very careful with weed and it isn't recommended for yoga and meditation. What do you think?

Where is your favorite place to practice yoga?

Hey everyone, I've been practicing yoga for a few weeks now and I've always found it interesting how different places can affect your yoga practice. I'm curious to hear from fellow yogis on Reddit about their favorite places to practice. Do you prefer practicing at home or at a studio? Maybe you love practicing in nature, like a park or beach? Have you tried practicing in unconventional spaces like rooftops or warehouses? Personally, I find that practicing in a studio with a dedicated instructor helps me stay motivated and focused. However, I also enjoy practicing outside in nature when the weather is nice. I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences on where you've found the best places to practice yoga. Let's share our knowledge and help each other find new and exciting places to practice!

Headstand practice, started yoga on January 1st (wasn't s new years resolution, just had a sudden intrest to learn and practice yoga) Any pointers on form?

Finding advanced instruction

I feel like I am starting to peak out at my studio and I’m not sure where to turn. I have been practicing yoga very consistently for several years now and I would like to keep learning more advanced options but struggle to find any classes that teach anything beyond simple arm balances. I’m craving new moves and the feeling of pushing myself. I can find advanced variations online but worry about just winging it myself and want to avoid injury and bad form. I’ve been trying getting into some aerial acrobatics like Lyra and silks but they are pretty hard on my body. Any advice on how to progress my practice? Also I’m located in Vegas is people know specific spots out here. Thanks!

Why do I have to blow my nose every time I practice hot vinyasa?

I've really been focusing on my ujjayi breath practice in my hot vinyasa classes recently, but am running into the same issue very practice. Something about the combination of nose breathing and how sweaty I get and my nose gets runny and drippy every single time. This prevents my ujjayi breathing and often causes me to end up sneaking a couple of gulping mouth breaths. Am I missing something? Is having to stop my flow to blow my nose on a towel once or twice during a practice normal? It feels highly annoying both to me and potentially those practicing around me.
