Yoga means "combination", "balance" and "unity". Practicing "it" is not only intellectual, perceptual, but also rational. Yoga is a sport that we practice.
All sports will have some instructions and precautions before they start, and yoga is no exception. In this article, I will talk about some matters needing attention in yoga practice and why there are these.
1, when doing various yoga moves, you must gently stretch your body at the edge of the limit, and don't push or pull hard. If you exceed your limit, it is a wrong exercise.
There is a word here that may not be clear to everyone. What does it mean to be on the edge of the limit? A group of well-known lyrics say that it hurts and is happy. I stretched forward, stretching beyond endurance, but at the limit of stretching, I felt the joy of exercise. Do it. If it's painful, it won't work. I can't pull the teacher like that. If I pull hard, my muscles will tear and strain. If you want to go further, it will hurt, it will hurt. Although I'm still a little short, I'm painful and happy. This is the edge of the limit. Gentle stretching, controlled exercise. Don't push and pull too much. For thousands of years, yoga has been regarded as a sport with little sports injury. But now, more people are injured while practicing yoga. Is yoga not good? No, everyone didn't follow the rules of the game. Attention, be sure to pay attention to this one. When doing various yoga moves, you must gently stretch your body at the edge of your body limit, and don't push or pull hard.
2. Any yoga may lead to delayed muscle soreness. If you feel nervous and sore after practice, please give proper massage and ice compress.
What is delayed muscle soreness? It is also called DOMS, and it happens after 12 to 48 hours. The specific reason is unknown now, probably because after strenuous exercise, cells and muscles rub against each other, damaging the cell membrane and causing mild inflammation. Usually, if it is serious, you can massage ice properly. In other words, if you finish yoga today, your muscles will hurt badly tomorrow, so don't rush to apply hot compress, you should get proper massage and ice compress.
It is easy to practice yoga on an empty stomach.
Unless otherwise specified in the exercise, it is best to practice three to four hours after meals and about half an hour after drinking liquids.
Let's look at the reason for this rule. Yoga moves are bending, stretching, twisting and pushing. Bending, stretching, twisting and pushing are the characteristics of yoga. Let's do a little experiment: there is a big plastic bag full of things. What happens when you squeeze this bag? It will explode. If our stomach is full of food and then squeezed, it will only bring unnecessary burden to the digestive system. If we happen to squeeze rice into the appendix, we will be in big trouble. This article is considered from the perspective of our overall health. Since it is considered from the perspective of health, there is no need for dogma. In other words, you only ate an apple for this meal. You just need to digest it and practice on an empty stomach. As long as your stomach is empty, and don't jump around immediately to cause gastroptosis, otherwise it will easily cause food to enter the non-digestive tract.
Do you have the feeling that after drinking water, whether you are ready to run or exercise, will you feel like a water bag? You will be embarrassed and uncomfortable, and your gastrointestinal tract will be uncomfortable, so let's not practice immediately after drinking water. If you are really thirsty, you can sip it in a small mouth, preferably within 60 ml. Then we will see that there are other rules in the exercise. What do you mean by not following this example? This is because of our clean work. For example, capra Shanlana, a businessman from Hatta Six Industries, needs to drink a lot of water in the practice of Shangka. It cleans your intestines with water and specific movements, so there are other rules for practicing yoga, and this example is not followed. In addition, there are Bikram yoga exercises. During the whole practice, you sweated a lot and lost too much water. You can drink water in practice.
4. If you are tired or shivering during yoga practice, please return to work immediately, and don't insist too much.
If you feel a slight "click" sound from your joints during yoga practice, don't worry, it means that your body is beginning to loosen. However, the pain in the same joint always recurs for a period of time. Please tell the coach in time.
6. If there is a sharp pain in a certain part of your body while doing a certain posture, please stop immediately and do the same posture after the coach instructs you. If the pain persists, please don't do this for a short time.
7. When doing yoga practice, please pay attention to the feeling that the action produces in your body. And each posture stays for no less than 4 seconds.
When practicing yoga, focus on the feeling that the action produces in your body. In fact, it should also belong to mobile meditation. Because we can define meditation in this way, when your eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, heart and other mainstream consciousness keep flowing in one direction under the control of your consciousness, meditation has already been formed. When you are practicing, it is your body that completely attracts your attention. When you focus on the feelings of your body and your muscles, you will be more able to listen to the dialogue between your body and you. You will feel very comfortable and your sense of movement will soon be achieved. Focusing on the body can effectively perceive the effect of the action, so that your body can be quickly guided in a positive direction by this action.
Unless otherwise specified, you should breathe through your nose from beginning to end when practicing.
People get sick because of the disordered breathing and flow in the meridians. Both the left meridian of the moon and the right meridian of the sun start from the nostril, the left meridian starts from the left nostril and the right meridian starts from the right nostril. We breathe through the nose, which helps breathing run smoothly in the pulse. Therefore, unless otherwise specified, we should breathe through our noses during the whole yoga practice.
9. People who are very old or have been injured in the neck, shoulders, back and waist should consult a doctor or coach before deciding whether to start practicing yoga postures.
10, always remember that every yoga practice should be slow and gradual, so as not to let your body get out of control.
Mastering this 10 yoga skill will play a very important role in your future yoga practice.
