Many people find yoga difficult, mainly because they are scared by those yoga publicity pictures. In order to improve the performance effect, many yoga practitioners like to use some yoga postures with high difficulty coefficient as their own propaganda pictures. Many yoga practitioners will doubt their learning ability when they see pictures of such difficult movements.
If you don't practice the impossible posture, won't you never do it?
Not exactly. This is the magic of yoga.
It's a bit like an exam. If your basic skills are solid enough, you can still get good grades even if you haven't done any simulation problems. On the contrary, if the basic skills are not solid, no matter how many simulation questions are used. The same is true of yoga. Our usual practice should focus on the basic poses and practice in a simple way. After the foundation is consolidated to a certain extent, the relatively difficult poses will be easy to do, and then you will climb to a higher level.
Yoga includes dozens or even hundreds of yoga poses, and the difficulty of these yoga poses is different. The difficult yoga pose is very difficult for ordinary people, but the moderately difficult yoga pose can be mastered as long as the practitioner does more exercises, and the less difficult yoga pose is suitable for almost every novice yoga.
For beginners of yoga, it is suggested to start with a relatively basic yoga pose, rather than carrying out difficult yoga exercises at the beginning. The correct way to advance the difficulty should be simple first, then difficult, and finally the difficult yoga pose.
Beginners of yoga should work hard on the basic movements, because many yoga poses with moderate difficulty or above are "upgraded versions" of simple yoga poses. The difference between them is only reflected in the difficulty and fitness effect, and the fitness concept is the same.
After mastering the basic yoga poses, don't rush to do yoga poses with moderate difficulty. You can practice several simple poses in combination first, for example, you can practice yoga cat pose, yoga rabbit pose and yoga tiger pose in one day, and adapt to the combined yoga practice method in advance to pave the way for later learning more difficult yoga poses.
