Does yoga need time and environment? This is a problem that many yoga beginners are very concerned about. It is best to practice on an empty stomach in the morning, at noon or 3 hours after dinner in the evening.
You can also choose one hour after meals at other times. Try to practice at the same time every day. There are no strict restrictions on the location, but try to choose a place with ventilation, fresh air and quiet.
You can also practice at home with the window open. It is best to spread a carpet half a centimeter thick on the floor, but it should be neat.
