Yoga for hormonal imbalance

Yoga for hormonal imbalance

Hormonal imbalance is a common issue for the urban female generation of different age group.

PCOS or thyroid issues are due to poor lifestyle, and that reflects as a hormonal imbalance.

Yoga is recommended in both the cases even by doctors these days.

If you are new to yoga, you would definitely take a little time to adjust with the poses and this new practice.

But if you are already into this practice, I would highly recommend you to go for deep yoga practice.

In this practice
- you would hold poses for a longer period of time
- deepen your breathing
- deepen the muscle work

Helps you
- to improve metabolism
- lose weight
- improve blood circulation
- strengthens your muscles
- more peace and calmness not on your mat but will help you to extend that calmness in day to day life

In yoga poses, you should try all kinds of poses
- inversions (shoulder stand, headstand)
- twists
- forwards bends
- sun salutations

Holding time should be a minimum of 30 seconds for all poses, and gradually reach up to 1 minute if you can.
