As lives become busier, stress levels rise and mental health issues increase, people are looking for a way to stay calm in a hectic world. The number of people practicing yoga grew over 50% from 2012 to 2016, and ‘yoga’ was one of the most popular terms searched on Google in 2016 in the UK. Strong, Calm and Free provides an accessible alternative for people keen to explore yoga and meditation without the restrictions of going to a studio class (for example, cost, timing, and feeling intimidated or self-conscious practising in a group setting). Both yoga and meditation are the most popular alternative health approaches in the US, practised by an estimated 35 million adults, and meditation is also the fastest growing health trend in America.
