Things to know

Avoiding wrist pain in yoga is crucial for maintaining a safe and effective practice. To protect your wrists, start by ensuring proper alignment in weight-bearing poses like plank and downward dog. Spread your fingers wide and press evenly through your palms, engaging your fingertips to distribute weight away from the wrist joints.

Incorporating wrist-friendly modifications, such as using fists or forearms instead of flat palms, can help alleviate strain. Additionally, listening to your body and avoiding overexertion are key; if you experience persistent pain, consult with a yoga instructor or healthcare professional for personalized guidance. Prioritizing these strategies can help you enjoy a pain-free and fulfilling yoga practice.

Ujjayi breath, often referred to as "the victorious breath" in yoga, involves inhaling and exhaling through the nose with a slight constriction at the back of the throat, creating a gentle hissing sound.

To practice Ujjayi breath, begin by inhaling deeply through the nose, allowing the breath to expand the chest and fill the lungs. As you exhale, slightly constrict the throat, producing a soft sound akin to ocean waves

Ujjayi breath offers numerous benefits, including enhanced concentration, increased oxygenation, and a calming effect on the nervous system. This technique helps regulate the flow of breath, promoting mindfulness throughout the practice, and generates internal heat, aiding in the purification of the body.

Ujjayi breath provides a rhythmic foundation for movement while fostering a sense of presence and tranquility.
