One of the major difference between the yoga
practices and the workout is the other workouts is after the session
You feel tired but yoga makes you feel energetic no matter how intense you do it . yoga
Practices gives you immense benefits at the psychological level and physiological level
. Which other workouts sometimes fail to do
it .but it is seen that some do serious mistakes after
Yoga practices .which in turn dilutes its effect . hence you should know what you should
do and what are the Right things you should do immediately after
yoga practices . Amongst all the important things are
1 do not forget to relax I notice that most of us start doing other
activities immediately after the yoga sadhana .
Because we all having time constraint .we are always in a hurry .
Since we are giving high importance to asanas and pranayam practices .once we have done
that We start doing all other work and totally
neglect the relaxation part at the end of the yoga session .
Even if some one relaxes I have noticed they do it for 2 to 5 minutes which is not right
. The person should do relaxation shavasan , makrasana
, or dradhasana for at least 10 minutes . Do you know that shavasana really stimulates
our parasympathetic nervous system which Helps you to keep relaxed through out the
day . it calms your sympathetic nervous system And hence it reduces your anxiety and nervousness
. relaxation resets and resettles your body .
2 Go for a brisk walk . Going out for a brisk walk immediately after
morning workout is very essential . Do not rush to do all daily routines after
your yoga sadhna . Go out in nature for a brisk walk and it will
set up the bold attitude for the day . After doing yoga your muscles are well stretched
,lungs are open to breath fully ,and you are well stretched for smooth movements .with
walking sets your body language for the day ,
For the bold and confident activities it fills you fuller breathing ,the increased heart
beats due to brisk walking will help you to clear arteries .,and proper blood supply to
each part of your body . Preferably go for a walk in nature .look up
at the sky and feel vastness of the universe .
And now begin your mundane activities with larger perspective .
3 point hydrate yourself after your practices Do not gulp water immediately after your practice.
Drinking a Glass of water is a must after practice.
But drink sip by sip and do not gulp . You should drink in relaxed state of mind
and your body’s absorption capacity is high after yoga session
And hydrating your self immediately after yoga workout will help to see that each and
every cell of your body is supplied with water . you can add cooling elements like jeera
and souf in water . it will not only cool down your boy but detoxify your system .
4 eat nutritious food . Don’t eat packed food or packaged drink
after your sadhna . Have a protein rich diet added with vitamins
and minerals . eat tofus ,nuts and seeds paneer and sprouds protein rich food which you should
have in your diet. Along with protein diet you should eat banana , apple and seasonal
fruits to supply essential micronutrients to your body .
5 recharge your self with a positive mantra Believe that everyday as new day. Live as
if everyday is your last day . life is an adventure so gear up for the adventure of
the day . Take some time to Repeat some positive affirmation
or some mantra to start your day . do not pick up your mobile phone immediately after
your session . say gratitude prayer or a motivating
prayer of your choice . That shall condition your mind . as a mind
is highly receptive for the subconscious training after the yoga sadhna .conditioning your mind
with positive thoughts ,will mould your mind with positive attitude and this shall
Reflect in all your activities throughout the day . as you know that yoga is a way of
living . Your one hour of practice is warm up to your
mind . benefits of yoga session will amplify If you follow these healthy habits after yoga
session . what you immediately do after your asana ,pranayam session matters
. understand that you do systematically as we have mentioned and that would benefit you
immensely , it would highlight your whole day . it in a very bright and positive way
