Pregnant women’s yoga: the right time to start
Pregnant women\’s yoga is an effective way to relieve discomfort during pregnancy, reduce the difficulty of childbirth, and relieve emotional stress. It is very popular among pregnant women. But the correct starting time is a science. Pregnant women should not start yoga practice immediately during pregnancy. Below we will elaborate on the correct start time and precautions for pregnant women’s yoga.
1. Correct start time: When can you start practicing yoga?
Pregnancy yoga is not a safe way to practice and can only be practiced under specific time conditions. Normally, pregnant women should not practice yoga in the early part of the first three months of pregnancy. Because the placenta and fetus have already formed at this time, if the body moves too vigorously, it will have adverse effects on the placenta and fetus. Pregnant women should wait until after 3 months of pregnancy, which is the safe period for pregnant women, before starting yoga exercises.
2. Note: Avoiding discomfort during yoga practice should cause vigilance
When pregnant women practice yoga, they need to pay special attention to their physical condition to avoid various discomfort symptoms. Pregnant women should avoid overstretching and avoid doing handstands and elbow supports on the ground, which may affect the balance and stability of the body. If symptoms such as abnormal fetal movement, bleeding, nausea, dizziness, stomach discomfort, etc. occur, you need to suspend yoga practice in time and maintain a resting state to prevent accidents.
3. Precautions: Pregnant women who do not understand movements should pay attention to skills and methods
Yoga movements for pregnant women are not exactly the same as traditional yoga movements, so pregnant women need to pay attention to whether they have mastered the correct techniques and methods of yoga to ensure the safety and effectiveness of yoga practice. When performing movements, you should avoid exerting too much force, keep each movement as slow as possible, and pay attention to the key parts of each movement. More relaxation and comfort are important mentality when practicing yoga for pregnant women.
4. Note: Reasonable breathing method
Yoga for pregnant women itself is embodied in breathing control. Correct breathing methods can improve the immunity, resistance and physical and mental health of pregnant women. Pregnant women should pay attention to the rationality of breathing in any practice session, ensure their breathing rhythm is stable and their breathing depth is moderate, and avoid adverse reactions caused by poor breathing. It is best to be tutored by a professional yoga instructor.
