It’s hard to workout when you’re suffering from nose-blowing and unforgivable stomach flus.
Here’s their take:
If you have a cold, try yoga.
“A gentle class may be best.
I wouldn’t go to Bikram when you’re still feeling weak and achy.
Trust me; you’ll get better faster if you do more restorative yoga poses and sleep.”
If you have the flu, back off.
I used to attempt to ‘sweat it out,’ but ended up prolonging illness every time.
Focus on healing foods and rest, and you’ll be back to top form in no time."
If you are going to move gently while healing, Fern suggests taking some easy at-home postures.
“I swear by this one for anything frombrain fogto bloating and flu-like symptoms.
Your body is asking you to slow down and rest.
What to be mindful of.
Try moving through sun salutations and a few backbends.
If that feels like too much, simplify your routine.
Here’s hoping those sniffles clear up soon.
