What is the most common mistake in practicing yoga?

1. Only those with soft bodies are suitable for practicing yoga

Because of practicing yoga, their bodies become soft, but those without soft bodies are suitable for practicing yoga. In addition, yoga emphasizes moderation, and does not pursue the magnitude of action completion. As long as practitioners do their best, they can get ideal results.

2. Yoga is a kind of slimming exercise.

The ultimate goal of yoga practice is to balance body (body), mind (thinking, emotion, etc.) and spirit (instinct to perceive things), so practitioners not only gain physical health, but also gain psychological health and instinctive development. As far as fitness is concerned, the function of yoga also includes regulating endocrine, treating and assisting diseases, relieving fatigue and stress, and so on. Therefore, it is incomplete to regard yoga as a weight-loss exercise, and weight loss is only one of the purposes of practicing yoga.

3. Yoga is a kind of feminine exercise

Although yoga is very popular among women, it is not a patent for women. Because the original practitioners (or inventors) of yoga are all men, which can be confirmed by many actions of yoga. Besides, today's famous yoga masters are almost all men. In some countries in Europe and America, the popularity of men practicing yoga is even higher than that of women.
