Special Tips for Yoga Practice
First of all, yoga practice emphasizes the harmonious and unified state of the human body and mind. In the absence of professional guidance, yoga practice should be gradual and pay attention to safety: when doing movements, don't force your posture to be as standard and stretch as a yoga master., as long as you reach your maximum range.
Secondly, in addition to physical movements, yoga pays more attention to the cultivation of the soul and consciousness. When practicing yoga, you must forget all unhappiness and at the same time experience the joy brought by practicing yoga. If it's not easy to find the joy brought by yoga practice in the early stages of practice, you can start training by meditating and relaxing, and first practice your own concentration ability.
At the same time, while practicing yoga, you should consciously pay attention to your diet structure and avoid overeating; develop good living habits and live a regular life. It is best to say goodbye to cigarettes, alcohol and all-night carnival. (Internship Editor: Wu Jinyu)
