Get practising your downward dog in time for The 108 Challenge, which takes place on 27 October, 9am-12pm at The Hub on The Royal Mile. It’s been organised to raise funds for Edinburgh Community Yoga (www.edinburghcommunityyoga. co.uk), which takes yoga classes to veterans, women affected by trauma, older people and those in recovery, amongst others. It’s looking for 108 yogis to do 108 sun salutations and each raise a target of £108 (or a minimum of £75) for the cause. Why 108? It’s considered a sacred number.
