Which yoga should not be done during periods?
Which yoga you choose to do on your cycle is completely up to you and how you experience that time of the month. As a general rule we'd recommend focusing more on restorative yoga, and avoid asanas that require stress on the abdominal and pelvic area, such as back arches which may cause you to experience pain. Each body is different, and some may feel more comfortable with certain asanas than others, try to stick to easy flows until you are comfortable with trying more challenging poses.

Does yoga make period cramps worse?
Some types of yoga practices may make cramps worse, but there are many types that can help to relieve pain! During the first couple of days, you may feel hindered by cramps and lack of energy, so we recommend focusing on breathing exercises and trying out a few poses that will help to relieve pressure in the abdominal area such as child's pose. Yoga may work well for some people on their periods, but not as well for others.

What are the benefits of doing yoga on your period?
Yoga can help to relieve pain caused by cramps. The deep breaths help to circulate oxygen around your body and into your muscles which alleviates cramping and aches caused by lack of oxygen. It can also help to regulate your mood and emotions, particularly when practicing gentle flows.
