Description:
Apple is offering a fun collectible for Apple Watch users so long as they 
complete a 10-minute yoga workout on the International Day of Yoga.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

The Apple Watch is a great way to track activity, but the Workout app also 
has a fun feature where you can earn colorful badges by completing special 
challenges. And as it happens, the tech giant has recently released a new 
limited-edition badge to commemorate the International Day of Yoga, which is 
on June 21. 

The badge looks based on the lotus flower, complete with a pink center, 
orange petals, and the year 2024, all adorned in gold. All you have to do to 
earn it is to record a 10-minute yoga workout on the wearable. 

 According to Toms Guide , there arent any limitations on how you can earn 
it. For example, you could begin a hot yoga session where you perform the 
exercise in a heated room. If that isnt your style, you can always go for a 
more relaxed and mindful yoga session or follow one of the many classes on 
Apple Fitness Plus . 

It does not matter if you're a beginner, a seasoned veteran of yoga, or even 
what practice you choose. What matters most is you record the workout. (Image

Do be mindful of the room temperature if you decide on hot yoga, as high 
temperatures can cause performance issues to occur. For example, the Apple 
Watch Series 9 has a maximum operating temperature of 95 degrees Fahrenheit 
(roughly 35 degrees Celsius). While the Apple Watch Ultra 2 , on the other 
hand, shouldnt have any issues arise at those temperatures as it can 
withstand temperatures of up to 130 degrees Fahrenheit (about 55 degrees 
Celsius). How to record a workout 

Recording an exercise is easy. To begin, launch the Workout app on the 
wearable and locate the Yoga exercises. They're easily spotted by an icon of 
a person standing on a single leg. You can tap the icon to immediately start 
a session or create your own workout by setting a specific calorie goal and 
time limit. 

Either way, once the 10 minutes are up, youll receive a notification that 
youve earned the badge. Detailed instructions on how to track your progress 
and end a workout can be found on Apples Support website . 

We recommend acting fast to get the International Day of Yoga badge. As 
Macworld explains, limited-edition achievements only last about a day or an 
entire weekend. Once theyre gone, thats it.
