What are the precautions before and after doing yoga

Everyone knows that yoga is a very effective way to lose weight. If you use yoga to lose weight, you can lose weight very well and it will not rebound so easily. But in fact, yoga is also a very good way to maintain health. So now many people like to use yoga to nourish their health. However, you need to pay attention to some things before and after doing yoga. If you don’t pay attention, it is likely that some problems will occur in your body.

1. Do not practice yoga within one hour before or after meals.

When practicing yoga, be sure not to practice when you are too full.

Yoga movements require bending and twisting of the body, so do not practice yoga within an hour before or after meals. It is best to reduce the amount of food you eat before practicing yoga to avoid increasing the burden on your stomach.

2. Do not practice yoga when you are emotionally unstable

Yoga is an exercise that requires the coordination of the body, mind and spirit. If you are angry, anxious or nervous, your muscle groups are tense and it is best not to practice yoga to avoid injury. Only when your muscles are soft can you practice yoga more healthily and safely.

3. People with blood coagulation diseases should avoid practicing yoga.

Yoga is not suitable for some people who have blood diseases.

Yoga movements require positioning, stretching and twisting of limbs, which may cause reduced peripheral blood flow, making it more likely to cause severe blood clotting and induce cardiovascular disease.

4. People with high intraocular pressure or severe myopia are not recommended to do head-down handstands.

Forward bending or headstand will increase intraocular pressure, so people who already have high intraocular pressure or severe myopia are not recommended to practice yoga.

5. Epilepsy and cerebral cortex damage

Many yoga movements involve stretching the neck. If you have epilepsy or cerebral cortex damage, bending forward and backward to massage the neck may induce an epileptic seizure.

6. People with osteoporosis should be careful when exercising

The hardness of bones is also something that needs to be paid attention to when practicing yoga.

Some yoga poses require the use of hands, feet and other limbs to support the body weight. If you have osteoporosis, you may accidentally fracture your bones when supporting your body with your elbows because your core muscles are not well trained.

The above article introduces in detail the precautions before and after doing yoga. In addition, you must adjust your emotions before doing yoga. If your emotions fluctuate too much, it will make it easy to damage your muscles during training, because your muscles will be in a very tense state at this time, so you still have to exercise when your muscles are relaxed.
