What's the difference between high temperature yoga and normal temperature yoga?

1, differences in practice environment

Normal temperature yoga is generally carried out indoors or outdoors at normal temperature.

As the name implies, high-temperature yoga is yoga in a high-temperature environment, requiring room temperature to be around 38 to 42℃.

2. Different actions

The purpose of high-temperature yoga training is to stimulate the internal tissues and lymph glands of the whole body at high temperature, rebalance the natural chemistry and hormone standards of the body, and thus regulate the internal and external functions of the body.

High temperature yoga is practicing yoga in a heated environment. Usually, the ambient temperature of eyelid heating is controlled between 38-42℃. On the basis of traditional yoga, Bikram Yoga has studied 26 movements and arranged them scientifically according to the characteristics of human muscles, ligaments and tendons. Among them, 26 stretching movements include lying, standing and sitting.

This group of static movements of twisting, bending and stretching can directly stimulate the nervous and muscular systems and improve the flexibility of the spine. Because Bikram Yoga has the function of normalizing gland activities, long-term practice has therapeutic effects on insomnia, migraine, low back pain, cervical spondylosis and gastrointestinal diseases.

3. Different action arrangements

The action arrangement of high temperature yoga is basically fixed, which is different from ordinary yoga. The 26 movements of high-temperature yoga have a fixed routine, and each movement is carried out in sequence. People who are particularly weak or have low blood pressure need to pay attention to rest and breathing during the practice of high-temperature yoga. High temperature yoga pays more attention to breathing practice.

Accelerate metabolism by "smelling and spitting". Because nose hair can filter dirty air and harmful bacteria, nose breathing can also make people more calm. Bikram yoga has a good effect on weight loss, detoxification and body shaping. At normal temperature, muscles and tendons are stiff, but at high temperature, the flexibility of the body becomes better. This is the characteristic of yoga.

Long-term practice of ordinary yoga can not only lose weight, but also relieve migraine, low back pain, cervical pain and gastrointestinal diseases. Through the exercise of human flexibility, improving the flexibility of the spine and squeezing the cervical vertebra in the opposite direction can play the role of relaxing meridians and promoting blood circulation, and treat migraine and cervical pain. Insufficient exercise, mental stress and excessive emaciation will all cause the human body to be cold.

4. Practice the differences between people.

Most people can try normal temperature yoga, but high temperature yoga is not suitable for everyone. Because of environmental reasons, people with high blood pressure, heart disease, bad cold, fever and pregnancy are not suitable for high-temperature yoga practice.

5, the difference between practice

High-temperature yoga: practicing high-temperature yoga is helpful for physical exercise and health, and its biggest role is detoxification. Through the practice of temperature and speed, the human body perspires several times more than usual, and the excess fat in the body is discharged through sweat, which plays the role of detoxification and fat elimination.

Practicing high-temperature yoga can also reduce facial wrinkles, enhance immunity and balance mental health; Furthermore, when practicing high-temperature yoga, the internal tissues and lymph glands of the body are stimulated by high temperature, the natural chemistry and hormone standards of the body are congested and balanced, and the internal and external functions of the body are adjusted.

Normal temperature yoga: Practicing normal temperature yoga can accelerate metabolism, remove wastes in the body, increase blood circulation in the body, fully repair body tissues, promote endocrine balance, relieve insomnia, headache, back pain, neck pain and joint pain, and make the body and mind comfortable and calm.
