Wear loose and comfortable sportswear when practicing yoga. Try to choose a quiet, clean, comfortable and ventilated venue, and avoid practicing in places that are too cold, too hot or in direct sunlight. The best time to practice yoga is early morning or evening. People's body is a little stiff in the morning, so we can start with simple posture, and after practicing, people can be in good mental state all day; Exercise at night is much more flexible than in the morning, and yoga posture will be better.

Yoga practice should avoid eating foods that are too greasy, spicy and lead to hyperacidity. You can eat after 30 minutes of practice. It is not advisable to practice yoga immediately after a full meal.

Practice on a blanket or mat, and don't pose on the bare floor.
