Benefits of practicing yoga in cold weather

"Many women have cold hands and feet in winter, and practicing yoga can improve this situation." Wen Wen said that Chinese medicine believes that because the nerve endings of hands and feet are far away from the heart, cold weather leads to vasoconstriction and insufficient blood supply, which leads to cold hands and feet. Yoga will promote blood circulation, thus achieving the effect of warming hands and feet. Besides, practicing yoga in winter can burn calories and help to keep a healthy figure.

Not only that, practicing yoga in winter can also adjust your mood. Everything is depressed in winter, which makes people feel depressed easily. Winter coincides with the end of the year, and heavy work and pressure can also lead to emotional imbalance. This season, practicing yoga helps to get rid of bad emotions, enhance thinking ability and make people feel happy.

It is worth noting that the temperature drops in winter, human capillaries contract, and ligaments and muscles become stiff. Therefore, when practicing yoga, we should not only warm up before exercise, but also not overstretch to avoid injury.
