Can I practice Bikram yoga with asthma?
Without knowing the cause of your asthma, we can tell you that Bikram Yoga will be good for you in several ways. It is done in a warm room that promotes relaxation of the muscles and nerves, and is the type of exercise that you can do with as little or as much intensity as appropriate for your needs. In other words, you can do each posture with less effort if you’re concerned about overexertion triggering an attack, or you can sit down and rest as needed during the class. It will relax your mind and help let go of tensions, toxins, and negativity. It also strengthens your heart and lungs, improving your lung function. You will breathe easier and deeper than you ever have before.
