How to practice yoga correctly?

Some people choose running to exercise, perhaps to enjoy the exhilarating feeling when they sweat profusely; some people choose walking to exercise, perhaps to enjoy the feeling of getting away from work and enjoying the leisure time quietly; some people choose yoga to exercise, which can not only relax the body and mind, but also shape the body. But not everyone can do yoga well. Today I will tell you the correct way to practice yoga.

Correct relaxation is like having a good sleep, which allows you to relax your muscles and all internal organs, and eliminate all tension, fear, and worry. If practiced correctly, the pulling, stretching, squeezing and twisting in yoga postures can keep the body in good posture, maintain the flexibility of the spine and joints, and benefit all systems in the body. Only by practicing correctly can you benefit from yoga. Proper breathing is at the heart of yoga, connecting the body to the mind.

Whether the breathing method is correct or not has a direct relationship with the benefits and harms it brings to the body and mind. Complete rhythmic yoga breathing can relax your body and mind, enhance your energy, and teach you how to recharge your body and better control your emotions.

Proper diet: Nutritious, healthy and natural food can eliminate toxins from the body, keep the body clean and soft, purify the body and mind, and enhance the body's immune ability. A positive and optimistic attitude and meditation, yoga meditation and contemplation can help eliminate negative thoughts, make people inner stable, peaceful and confident, and ultimately achieve a state of self-transcendence. The above five items are the basic ones to distinguish yoga from other fitness techniques, and they will help you avoid getting lost during practice.

Every step of yoga practice should be performed with caution and not rushed, and the intensity and difficulty should be gradually increased during the practice. Taking a shower right after practicing yoga will not only greatly reduce the effectiveness of the practice.

We often only see the graceful postures of yoga masters, and every movement seems so simple for them. In fact, every movement requires repeated practice to achieve “seemingly simple”, and the practice of yoga focuses on meditation. If you are impatient, not only will you not be able to grasp yoga correctly, but it may also cause harm to your body.
