Yoga for diabetes combines exercises that engage your muscles with mobility work and rest. The exercises and intensity need to be tailored to your health and treatment.
In this 10-minute class, you'll try “Dynamic Standing Side Bend”, “Warrior 2 Pose with Thigh Support” and “Downward-Facing Dog”. In the Warrior poses, you'll work on leg strength and core stability. You'll finish by lying down to rest.
Discuss your exercise intensity, glucose monitoring and what to do if your glucose levels change with your doctor; complications may require exercise modifications. Do not practice if you feel unwell.
