First of all, a person must be familiar with all parts of his body, so as to give full play to his strength in practice. Secondly, know whether you have hypertension, heart disease and other diseases, or whether you have cervical and lumbar injuries, and the history of injuries in other parts of your body, so as to avoid behaviors that may cause harm to your body. In addition, beginners should avoid practicing yoga alone, and should choose a yoga teacher with professional qualification certificate for guidance, and choose appropriate courses, wearing soft and comfortable yoga clothes and equipped with professional props, such as yoga blankets and bricks. So as to better protect and support the body; Finally, exercisers should fully warm up before exercise, do as much exercise as possible during exercise, and stop exercising immediately if they feel uncomfortable.
Children and the elderly who are weak or suffer from hypertension, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and respiratory diseases should not practice yoga. Due to excessive flexion and extension and rotation, the abdomen and lower limbs are compressed, which increases abdominal pressure, venous blood return and heart load, which is easy to cause cerebral thrombosis and cerebral hemorrhage, leading to dyspnea or recurrence of old diseases. However, although children can enhance the flexibility of muscles and ligaments by practicing yoga, children with developing bones and soft tissues are prone to injuries and sequelae if yoga is not practiced properly. Therefore, children need to pay special attention to practicing yoga.
Moreover, it should be noted that according to clinical findings, most of the injured patients who practice yoga are women around 40 years old, so women of this age must do moderate muscle stretching exercises.
