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 60-minute class, you'll try “Supported Warrior 3 Pose”, “Dynamic Standing Forward Bend 2”, and “Dynamic Four-Limbed Staff on Elbows”. In Warrior III, you'll balance on one leg and pay attention to your hip alignment. You'll lie down to rest at the end of the class.
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.
