BENEFITS OF YOGA DURING PERIODS

Is doing Yoga during Periods safe?

Yoga is a great way to relax and relieve stress. It has been shown to have many benefits for the body and mind, including reducing menstrual cramps. It is a lifesaver for women who suffer from cramps during their periods.  Mekosha Ayurveda Spasuits Retreat has a carefully developed Yoga Retreat package that is perfect for relieving menstrual cramps and other pains associated with menstruation. 

Many different poses help with menstrual cramps, including the Pigeon pose, the Goddess pose, and the Warrior 2 pose. Yoga during periods is safe if done in moderation. However, avoid doing any intense or strenuous yoga poses during this time because that can make you feel dizzy or nauseous.

The Benefits of Yoga on your Hormones and Menstrual Cycle

Yoga is one of the physical activities that has been proven to have many benefits and is of immense help during periods. It helps in increasing the endorphin levels in the body which in turn helps you lessen the pain you feel. Yoga also increases blood flow, which can help alleviate cramps and migraines, and it has many other benefits on your hormones and menstrual cycle such as reducing PMS symptoms, regulating period cycles, and preventing endometriosis.

Yoga for Menstrual Cramps

More often than not, periods interfere with your everyday activities. And what other way is better, than to do some exercise. Yoga is an excellent way to obtain relief from menstrual cramps. 

Several yoga poses can help to ease the pain and discomfort associated with cramps. One of the best things about yoga is that it can be done anywhere, so you can do it in the comfort of your own home. Yoga poses that are particularly helpful for cramps include the following:

  1. Child’s Pose

This pose helps to stretch the lower back and hips, which can help relieve menstrual cramps.

  1. Cat/Cow Pose

This pose helps to loosen up the lower back and release tension in the spine. It also helps to massage the abdominal organs, which can be quite beneficial in easing the pain.

  1. Cobra Pose

This pose helps to stretch the front of the body and strengthens the back muscles. It also stimulates blood flow to the pelvic region, which can help to soothe the cramps.

In addition to yoga, some other natural remedies may be effective for you. Herbs such as ginger, chamomile, and peppermint can help ease pain and cramping. Heat applied to the lower abdomen can also help relieve discomfort.
