5 Yoga
Tips To Keep
September is National Yoga Month and many of you may be looking to get into the Yoga movement. Starting any new fitness program can be challenging so here are five simple tips to help you keep your yoga practice safe and injury-free.
Your
Safe By Dr. Emily Splichal
1
Go at your own pace. Yoga is designed to be all about the individual. Focus on how far you can move into each pose without competing with the woman next to you. We all have past injuries and structural imbalances that may prevent us from holding certain poses. Remember that it’s completely acceptable to sit out of certain poses if your body isn't ready.
2
pain is never normal. It is the goal of fitness instructors to push us past our limits to help us achieve our fitness goals; however, this never means you should continue to exercise through pain. Because pain is individual, the fitness instructor will not know when an exercise is causing you pain. Listen to your body. If you feel pain, stop.
3
we all have off days. Daily stresses, dehydration, and poor diet can all influence our daily yoga practice. If your balance is off or if you feel weak one day, put the workout behind you and try not to let it influence tomorrow’s workout. Try to find the positive aspects of each workout, such as mood elevation, improved blood flow, and socializing with your gym friends.
4
choose a safe, yet effective, instructor. One of the most important aspects to a good workout is the instructor. If you feel your instructor is pushing you into dangerous poses or beyond your comfort zone, do not hesitate to switch instructors. A yoga instructor should be encouraging and safe and should have a thorough knowledge of exercise modifications.
5
accept that yoGa isn’t for everyone. Remember that not all workouts are designed for everybody. Just because a workout is trendy does not mean that it is for everyone. Some people respond more to dance classes, while others are better adept at Pilates. All of our bodies are unique structurally and therefore require different classes to tone and define. If yoga doesn't agree with you or with your body, that’s o.k.—you can always try something else!
