1. Avoid Deep Forward Bends:
– Asanas to Avoid: Paschimottanasana (Seated Forward Bend), Uttanasana (Standing Forward Bend)
– Reason: These poses can put excessive pressure on the spine, increasing the risk of fractures.
2. Skip Intense Twisting Poses:
– Asanas to Avoid: Ardha Matsyendrasana (Half Lord of the Fishes Pose), Parivrtta Trikonasana (Revolved Triangle Pose)
– Reason: Intense twists can strain the vertebrae and lead to spinal injuries.
3. Steer Clear of Deep Backbends:
– Asanas to Avoid: Urdhva Dhanurasana (Wheel Pose), Dhanurasana (Bow Pose)
– Reason: Deep backbends can compress the spine and are risky for those with weakened bones.
4. Refrain from Inversions:
– Asanas to Avoid: Sirsasana (Headstand), Sarvangasana (Shoulder Stand)
– Reason: Inversions can cause falls and put undue stress on the neck and spine.
5. Avoid High-Impact Movements:
– Asanas to Avoid: Jumping into Chaturanga, High-Intensity Vinyasa Flows
– Reason: High-impact movements can lead to fractures and are generally unsafe for those with osteoporosis.
By following these guidelines, you can ensure a safer and more beneficial yoga practice. Remember, always listen to your body and consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new exercise regimen. Namaste! 🙏
