After entering China, it has become more and more popular and popular with the public after several years of development.
However, in the process of development, there have been many misunderstandings, no matter about yoga postures or yoga culture.
365 The health service team found in the first-line practical teaching that this misunderstanding of fitness yoga has become more and more serious.
How to maintain a correct understanding while doing well in fitness yoga has become increasingly important.
Today, the 365 health service team first listed 9 common cognitive misconceptions for beginners, making your yoga practice safer and your yoga path more correct.
Only by stepping out of the misunderstanding of cognition and practice can you better enjoy the fun of fitness yoga.
List the misconceptions 01.
Yoga is the patent of women, and it is only suitable for women in today’s Chinese society.
Fitness yoga seems to be more popular with women, because some publicity in the past has a certain degree of misleading, and yoga is not the patent of women.
In fact, men need yoga to relax and relieve stress.
Almost all Indian masters of yoga practice are men, and there are no fewer men than women among followers of western yoga.
Master Iyengar is one of them.
Myth 02.
Yoga is only suitable for people who are soft because they become soft when they practice yoga, while people who are not soft are suitable for yoga, which is a misunderstanding of most people.
Many people will think that they can complete some postures as long as their body is soft when they see the pictures of some postures.
However, people should understand that a soft body usually lacks sensitivity and awareness, so it cannot give any more valuable feedback to the brain or heart.
The soft body will not trigger the intelligence to think about what is wrong and what is right when completing asanas.
On the contrary, a rigid body has resistance, force and reaction, which trigger the intelligence to study asana from the correct perspective, so that one can love and enjoy yoga more.
In any case, yoga emphasizes moderation.
Safe and incomparable yoga does not need to pursue the range of action completion.
As long as the practitioner does his best, he can get the ideal effect, which has nothing to do with the level and difficulty of the pose.
Simple poses can also have very good effects.
Difficult bodies are the result of natural unlocking, rather than excessive pursuit of adventure.
Mistake 03.
Yoga is just stretching.
In many people’s eyes, yoga is stretching.
Of course, basic stretching is very important, but stretching is just a kind of muscle performance in yoga.
In yoga poses, the so-called stretching is actually a kind of body stretching, not pure muscle stretching.
It is more of a spiritual and spiritual relaxation and extension.
Fitness yoga is the combination of consciousness and breathing to complete the body position, which is the combination of movement and stillness.
It is not simply stretching.
Unlike dance and acrobatics, yoga requires flexibility of the body, but stresses energy balance.
It drives the body to move with breath.
The deeper the breath, the more stretched the body.
Myth 04.
It is convenient to practice online at home to save money and time.
When you practice, you will focus on the pursuit of movement itself, thus ignoring meditation and breathing.
Yoga practitioners, especially beginners, will fall into blind practice and increase the chance of injury if they do not know their own body and their limits.
When there is no foundation, it is actually a risky thing to follow the video exercise.
If you follow the video exercise for a long time without the assistance and guidance of a yoga instructor, when the power point is incorrect, it will be counterproductive.
If your body is injured again, you will lose nothing.
Myth 05.
Yoga is asana.
The most important part of asana is that many people only care about whether their posture is beautiful and do not pay attention to the coordination of movement and breathing.
Yoga is the internal and external cultivation of the body and mind.
Yoga asana is only a part of yoga, and meditation and breathing are also important parts.
Because, only when the mind is calm and healthy, the body and mind will be healthier.
Fitness yoga is to control the fluctuation of mind consciousness through physical exercise, so that we can finally get joy and perfection, and cope more calmly in the noisy life.
Myth 06.
Yoga needs to be vegetarian.
Before practice, you must have empty stomach yoga and never force the practitioner to be vegetarian.
However, as you practice, you will gradually find that your body and mind are thinking about a good direction and like a light and healthier diet.
It’s better to have an empty stomach about 1.5 hours in advance before yoga practice.
However, if you feel hungry, it’s OK to eat a little fruit or drink a glass of milk half an hour in advance.
Especially for practitioners with low blood sugar, you need to supplement sugar before practice.
After practice, you’d better wait 30 minutes before eating.
Myth 07.
Take a bath immediately after sweating.
It’s better to wait half an hour before taking a bath after practicing yoga.
Yoga emphasizes energy balance, which will be disturbed if you take a bath immediately.
Just after practicing yoga, the pores are generally open and easy to catch cold.
At this time, special attention should be paid to keeping warm and it is prohibited to take a bath immediately for the sake of temporary happiness.
08.
It is better to put yoga behind other sports when planning to practice other sports after yoga, which can play a good role in relaxing the body and mind and relieving fatigue.
If you do some more vigorous exercise after yoga, it can only make your body and mind tense, and then break the energy balance.
Of course, other activities of warming up with yoga are exceptional.
Myth 09.
Yoga requires a fixed time.
Yoga is not just an hour on the mat, but another 23 hours in life.
It is better to integrate yoga into your life, instead of practicing yoga several times a week.
Over time, yoga has become a part of your life and ultimately a way of life..
