Thinking Of Joining A Yoga Class? Tips For Stroke Recovery Therapy

By Helen Williams


Yoga, the Hindu spiritual discipline that uses a simplified form of meditation. Breathing methods with a fusion of specific bodily postures for relaxation and is an ideal stroke recovery therapy. The benefits include but are not limited to increased flexibility, weight reduction and improved muscle strength and tone. If the following words above have ignited a sense of intrigue, there are a few things make note of before joining a yoga class.

We all know the pose downward dog in english but what is it in it s sanskrit name? The message that should be taken away here is that research is vital in order to feel part of the class opposed to confused and disorientated because of a lack of understanding. Learn enough terms to get through a class and develop your skill set accordingly.

Being comfortable also extends to the equipment required to engage in a yoga class. Classes are done barefoot, no socks, but an exception can be made depending on the weather. A yoga mat can also be used but a helpful and useful tip would be to refrain from stepping on anybody else s yoga mat as some of the members in your class might view their mat as an extension of themselves or an invasion of their personal space.

Going to class on a full stomach is considered a fopa, sure nobody will know, that s the logic behind it. But trust us when we say, they will know, not only might it cause discomfort but nobody wants to sit behind the person passing gas. On the same token however, it s equally bad to go to a yoga class on a completely empty stomach. The middle ground and the most ideal conditions for a stomach during a yoga class is to have a fruit 20 to 30 minutes before class so that you don t feel bloated nor light headed during the class.

One of the most important things to do when actually doing yoga is to breathe. At first it may feel like your breathing in when you re supposed to be breathing out and vice versa but as your skillset develops so too will your breathing adjust. What s important is that you never stop breathing as yoga infuses a bunch of different breathing techniques into it. Thus making it crucial.

Bring comfortable clothing. Pants that stretch are best as they allow for more flexibility. For females, the options are more varied and it s important to prioritise comfort over what s fashionable because the latest and greatest designer tops won t matter when your huffing and puffing in discomfort because of them. For men however, their choice of clothing is limited but long running tights are decent enough to make them presentable and comfortable.

Do some research learn some of the terms that will be used during the yoga class so that it doesn t feel confusing and disorienting.

Not everything you see on television is true as yoga is designed to accomodate people of different body shapes and sizes. The purpose of yoga is to decrease tension but needs you to come prepared.
