The last thing you want on your mind in a hot yoga class is a headache.
is a headache — flowing from Upward Dog to Downward Dog goes from relaxing to all-around uncomfortable.
But headaches in hot yoga happen, so your best line of defense is knowing how to prevent the pain and exactly what to do when one does pop up. So inhale, exhale, and keep reading for these pro yogi tips.To state the obvious, hot yoga classes are — shocker — really hot. According to Tiffany Cruikshank, a yoga instructor and the founder of
and the Yoga Medicine Seva Foundation, hot yoga classes can range in temperature anywhere from 90 to 110 degrees, some with or without humidity. You"The most important thing to do before class is be sure you're well hydrated," Cruikshank notes.
"If you're having headaches and staying hydrated, I recommend experimenting with foods that won't sit in your stomach but will bolster your blood sugar. For some, a piece of fruit is perfect, but for many it's not enough fuel to get them through a full 90 minute class." She recommends starting with a tablespoon of coconut oil 15 to 30 minutes before class, or for those who are quick digesters, a little protein powder 30 to 60 minutes before class.
