Disadvantages of practicing high-temperature yoga High-temperature yoga violates the principle of traditional yoga, because the indoor high-temperature environment of 38 degrees Celsius to 40 degrees Celsius is artificially created. Low air humidity, less negative oxygen ions and more free radicals will all lead to side effects:
1. Due to the high temperature environment, the throat mucosa is in a state of water shortage for a long time. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the lung is a delicate organ, which needs long-term moisturizing and nursing. However, high temperature will dry the lungs, so it will do harm to the human respiratory system.
2. From the perspective of yoga health, high-temperature yoga consumes too much life energy, and the high-temperature environment makes people's metabolism very strong, which is a kind of consumption in itself. When doing some pneumatic yoga movements, it will accelerate the decay of human organs and induce diseases.
3. Exercising in a high temperature environment will increase the burden on the heart and bring serious consequences to patients with chronic diseases such as hypertension, hypotension and diabetes.
4. Oversecretion of adrenaline and cortisol, two stress hormones, masks the state of dehydration and fatigue in the body. Therefore, practicing yoga at high temperature has a certain health-preserving effect, but when the body temperature rises to 38℃ to 40℃, it will lead to heatstroke and even life-threatening.
5. When practicing high-temperature yoga, if the indoor temperature is too high, it will easily lead to related diseases, or the body will be injured due to excessive stretching. At high temperature, muscles will not become softer and more flexible, thus reducing the chance of injury. On the contrary, if you take the risk of doing yoga exercises that stretch your muscles beyond the limit, your body will be easily injured and even your joints will be injured. Moreover, high temperature will increase the secretion of enkephalin and two stress hormones-adrenaline and cortisol, which will lead to the decrease of human sensitivity to pain.
