When you think of people practising yoga, do you imagine impossibly supple, young people bent into all sorts of shapes no human should be able to get themselves into?
If this is the case, you might be surprised to learn that yoga can be extremely beneficial for people with mobility issues, including the elderly and those with disabilities.
Yoga can be practised not only in the privacy of your own home but also in the comfort of your own chair!
Chair yoga is a great exercise for people who have chronic pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, osteoporosis, or multiple sclerosis. It also helps those over a certain age who have difficulty with the up and down motions of regular yoga. Chair yoga allows them to keep their balance.
There are numerous advantages to chair yoga, and we will highlight a few of them today.
Chair yoga allows you to gradually develop your strength, balance, and flexibility while reducing the likelihood of falling out of balance, which is more common when doing traditional yoga.
Yoga necessitates the practice of mindfulness. Concentrating on your movement, breathing, and how your body responds to the exercise produces a type of moving meditation that promotes relaxation, reduces tension, and improves mental clarity. Sitting yoga, like other forms of exercise, can help you improve your mood, boost your confidence, and reduce anxiety and despair.
Chair yoga gives you useful techniques for dealing with discomfort. To cope with pain and discomfort, gentle movement, deep breathing, and picturing the pain leaving the body can be used in various situations.
We spend so much of our time sitting at our desks and working in the work from home culture, and it can be really difficult. While there are several methods to get moving at a desk job, many of them entail getting up from your desk.
This is why chair yoga is so beneficial; it can help reduce the strain and stress associated with sitting at a desk all day.
Keeping these advantages in mind, we want to bring them into your homes for your comfort.
