Practice hot yoga in winter to prevent colds

Practice hot yoga in winter to prevent colds0

As the temperature dropped, I felt a little less energetic and just wanted to lie idle in the bed and sofa. But in the cold winter, the more inactive the body is, the more likely it is to have problems-the muscles and bones are stiff, blood circulation becomes worse, especially the distal hands and feet of the body are always cold.

There is also anxiety and stress about life and work that reduce the body's immune function, making it easy for the cold virus that is spreading around in winter to find you.

How to spend this winter warm and comfortable

Try the few yoga poses we provide, coupled with pressing acupuncture points and adjusting breathing, which can improve the circulation of blood and blood, make the body less likely to lose warm and cold, and can enhance the combat effectiveness against the cold virus.

Some movements even have no venue restrictions and can be practiced at any time. For example, when you are depressed and you can't concentrate in the office, you might as well stand in your seat, do the "twist pose" for a few minutes, and then do the "complete breathing method" 10 times to bring in a lot of oxygen to your body and immediately refresh your mind., drive away sleepworms.
