What are the benefits of doing yoga in summer?
The temperature is relatively high, the human blood is relatively smooth, and the limbs are relatively stretched. At this time, practicing yoga is not only easy, but also the fully stretched body will become more carefree and comfortable. Especially for friends with arthritis, some targeted yoga exercises in summer will help the cold and blood stasis in the body to be excreted in time, which will have unexpected effects on relieving damaged joints. Therefore, friends with arthritis must speed up the pace, join the ranks of yoga practitioners, and treat the disease in time.

When practicing yoga in summer, we should pay attention to some problems. Because the temperature is high at this time, the human body will sweat a lot during practice, so the body will lose a lot of water. Therefore, we should pay attention to replenish water in time to prevent heatstroke. Generally speaking, if the intensity of exercise is not high and the amount of sweating is not great, you can drink 1~2 glasses of water before and after exercise. Yoga practitioners with the main purpose of losing weight should drink a glass of water before practice, drink a glass of water every 30 minutes during exercise and drink another glass of water after exercise. This is just a general statement, depending on the situation of the practitioners themselves. When replenishing water, you can add some salt to restore your strength.

In addition, it is particularly important to emphasize that after practicing yoga, don't drink cold drinks, blow air conditioners or take a cold bath immediately because you want to be cool for a while. It's best to take a break and replenish water before taking a hot bath (not a cold bath).

The loss of sweat takes away some minerals in the body, such as potassium and sodium. Therefore, we should pay attention to supplement some fruits and vegetables rich in minerals in our diet. For example, eat more fruits such as bananas and oranges, and eat vegetables such as mushrooms, broccoli and peanuts often.

Practitioners with high temperature in summer, high human consumption, low blood sugar, weak qi and blood, and bad stomach will be even weaker at this time, so we should grasp the amount of action when practicing. There is also a beginner. At this time, we should also pay attention to practice not to overdo it. It is best to practice for about 30 minutes at a time. If you feel dizzy, chest tightness, nausea and other symptoms, you should immediately stop practicing and rest in a place with fresh air, good ventilation or normal room temperature.

The basic requirement of yoga practice is to practice on an empty stomach, but you can eat liquid food 1 hour before practice to avoid hypoglycemia caused by hunger.

It is best to practice on an empty stomach in the morning, at noon or three hours after dinner in the evening. You can also choose 3 hours 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. It is best to wear loose and soft sportswear. Pants should be tied on your feet so that you can practice handstand. It is best to practice 1 hour every day. If not, you can arrange half an hour or even 10 minutes. The key is to practice every day, otherwise the effect will be greatly reduced. It is much better to practice for half an hour every day than for two hours a week. Persistence is the key to practicing yoga. In the practice of posture and breathing, breathing is usually through the nostrils. Inhale and exhale slowly, and pay attention to continuous improvement.

In addition, exhaling is usually a little longer than inhaling. Although advanced yoga practitioners must be vegetarian, and we believe that vegetarianism is really beneficial, we respect everyone's eating habits and advocate that everyone be vegetarian as much as possible. One of the main contents of yoga is abdominal deep breathing and stretching, which can make muscles and brain get enough oxygen to relax and alleviate the adverse reactions of the body.

Don't insist on the achievement method for too long. When you do yoga, your body will have some different reactions, such as old injuries and pains. This is because yoga will make your body reflect all the old bad things. As long as you keep practicing, these conditions will gradually disappear and be adjusted, and your physical condition will be improved. During this period, you can choose to practice or rest, mainly depending on your personal preferences. When you continue to practice, you should pay attention to some postures, such as handstand, abdomen contraction and energy enhancement. It is best not to practice. Because it may bring you discomfort caused by physical problems. If you are an adult-especially after the age of 22, sorry, it is basically impossible.
