Why Does Yoga Make Me Feel Sick
?
There is a lot of talk about yoga making people feel sick. But what does this mean? Why do people feel sick after practicing yoga?
There are a few different reasons why people might feel sick after doing yoga. For one, many people tend to feel lightheaded or dizzy after doing yoga, especially in the beginning. This is because many of the poses involve standing on one leg or in a balancing position, which can take some getting used to.
In addition, yoga often involves deep breathing, which can also make some people feel lightheaded or dizzy. This is because deep breathing can cause blood vessels in the brain to dilate, leading to a drop in blood pressure.
Finally, some people may feel sick after doing yoga because of the heat. Many yoga classes are held in hot, humid rooms, which can lead to a feeling of nausea or lightheadedness.
If you are feeling lightheaded or dizzy after doing yoga, it is important to take a break and drink some water. If the symptoms persist, it is best to stop practicing yoga and see a doctor.

Does Yoga Release Endorphins
?
There is a lot of talk about the release of endorphins during yoga. But what are they? What does their release mean for our practice?
Endorphins are hormones that are produced by the pituitary gland. They are released in response to pain, stress or excitement. They are responsible for the “runner’s high” that people experience when they exercise.
Endorphins interact with the receptors in the brain that are responsible for pleasure. They block the transmission of pain signals and produce a feeling of euphoria.
So does yoga release endorphins? The answer is yes. Yoga is a form of exercise and all forms of exercise release endorphins. The practice of yoga, in particular, is known to be especially beneficial in terms of endorphin release.
The release of endorphins has some important implications for our practice. It means that we can use yoga to manage pain, stress and anxiety. It also means that we can use yoga to achieve a feeling of euphoria and well-being.
So if you are looking to boost your endorphins, look no further than your yoga mat. Yoga is a great way to get your endorphins flowing!
