You Know You’re a Millennial Yogi If…

Like it or not, we’re a predictable generation. Millennials share and laugh at the same memes. We binge on the same shows (“Birdbox” and “You,” anyone?). Apparently, we even have a color. Oh yes, millennial pink.

And when it comes to our fitness and yoga practices, there are some definite universal truths that unite us. Because millennials and yoga go together like mac and cheese.

Yes, we are millennial yogis. And sometimes, we just gotta laugh a little at our collective selves.

Curious why us millennials are so into yoga anyway? Here Are 7 Undeniable Reasons Why Millennials Are So Obsessed With Yoga
