How to practice yoga during menstruation?

Yoga is a very popular sport. It has many benefits, which is a major reason why people practice it. Some people practice it because it is fun, while others practice it because they are interested in it. Some people may ask, what kind of yoga is suitable for practicing during menstruation? Let me explain this question to you.

Positions that cannot be practiced:

All inverted postures (such as plow pose, headstand, shoulder stand, etc.), postures that squeeze the abdomen (such as back stretch, single leg stretch), and intense postures that require high body stress (such as wheel pose), etc., stop immediately if you feel uncomfortable

You can do some standing or kneeling postures that are gentle on the body (such as yoga mudra, bowing pose, triangle pose, tree pose, cat pose, snake pose, etc.)

It is not suitable to do inversions or positions that squeeze the abdomen during menstruation, as this will cause some of the menstrual blood that should have been discharged from the body to remain in the body, affecting menstrual health. Avoid strenuous exercise during menstruation. You can practice some gentle stretching postures to massage your body. After the menstrual period is over, practicing more yoga (including postures such as inversion) can eliminate the symptoms of discomfort during menstruation and is beneficial to the body and mind. Sitting postures:

Asanas such as Ahasana, Vajra Pose, Lotus Pose, Bound Angle Pose, Seated Angle Pose, Cow Face Pose, and Bandha Pose can help eliminate stress and tension in women. Women who have trouble breathing, chest tightness, difficulty urinating, heavy menstrual bleeding, abdominal cramps, mental excitement and impulsivity will find these poses very effective in alleviating symptoms and eliminating those disorders. Poses such as Hero Pose, Bound Angle Pose, Auspicious Pose, Fish Pose, and Hand-to-Toe Pose II (using a strap, bolster, or blanket for support) can relax muscles and nerves that are in a state of tension, fatigue, and excitement in daily life.

The above is some relevant information about yoga that is suitable for menstruation practice that people are often concerned about. I believe that after reading the above relevant information, you will have some understanding of this aspect. If you haven't practiced yoga for a long time, you must remember to warm up first and then practice yoga, otherwise you will get hurt.
