The human body is weak during menstruation, and our body is usually different from usual, but can we do yoga during menstruation? Many people know that you can't do some intense exercise during menstruation, but everyone should take good care of their bodies during menstruation. Although we can't do more intense exercises, we should still be able to do some simple exercises. Next, let the editor introduce to you whether you can do yoga during menstruation. In India, women call their menstrual period "moonday," a day for introspection, retreat, rest, purification, and meditation. From a physiological point of view, due to the impact of changes in hormone secretion on physical strength and emotions, it is recommended to minimize intense and busy external activities and stimulation, and instead enter a state of introspection and meditation. Working women may not have much choice to "retreat" when they have to go to work, but they can still practice moving, working and interacting with people in a low-key and retreating mentality during these days and change the way they practice yoga. In principle, practicing yoga during menstruation should help us eliminate discomfort and fatigue, restore physical strength, stabilize emotions, and maintain inner peace (although the opposite is often the case). The degree to which each woman is affected physically and mentally during menstruation varies. Therefore, ladies who practice yoga regularly should develop an inner "hearing" to listen to the signals sent by the body and mind, and use your intuition to judge whether you should practice asanas today, what to practice and how to practice, etc. No one can make decisions for you except yourself. You can choose to take a complete break and stop any asana practice, or you can choose very gentle practices to better relax, such as supine and forward-bending poses, either sitting on the ground or supported by a cushion. Based on this principle, exercises that should be avoided during menstruation are: 1) Avoid all inversion postures (those in which the uterus is above the heart), which interfere with the natural downward movement of the body's energy (apana) during menstruation. 2) Postures that are too intense and can easily cause tension and fatigue. 3) Maintaining a standing or balancing posture for too long. 4) Intense backbends such as bow pose, camel pose, wheel pose, etc. 5) All postures that involve intense abdominal contraction and movement, such as abdominal rotation After reading the above information about whether you can do yoga during menstruation, do you know a lot? In fact, you still need to take good care of yourself during menstruation to avoid leaving sequelae. When appropriate, we can still do some appropriate yoga exercises, but we must also pay attention to diet during menstruation and eat more blood-enriching foods. |
