Pregnant women love yoga! Kneeling cat breathing to fight allergies

After the "Beginning of Winter", we officially enter winter. For people with allergies, practicing yoga regularly can not only improve immunity, but also reduce allergic reactions. The yoga teacher specifically teaches everyone the "kneeling cat breathing" to use the body's breathing coordination to increase the flexibility of the limbs to promote lymphatic circulation, stay away from symptoms such as asthma and nasal congestion, and make allergies no longer a nightmare.

Health yoga teacher Sisii pointed out that yoga is a very good aerobic exercise, which can make the body's joints and ligaments soft and flexible. Especially pregnant mothers who do prenatal yoga during pregnancy can not only enhance muscle tension, but also improve the flexibility of muscle tissue. The movements of prenatal yoga are relatively slow, which is beneficial to the health of pregnant women and babies, and can also help pregnant mothers to give birth naturally.

Limb balance stretches improve immunity

Yoga for pregnant women can fight allergies, mainly through yoga stretching movements, such as eagle pose, kneeling cat breathing, side stretching and other simple and soft movements, to relieve tense and painful muscles. At the same time, natural breathing methods can help stretch the ribs and strengthen the elasticity of the chest and back muscles, so that mothers with allergies can stabilize their emotions, relax their muscles and improve their immunity, so as to relieve the occurrence of allergies.
