Yoga when quitting smoking offers a chance to replace your usual break with movement on the mat. Engaging your muscles, working on mobility and paying attention to your breathing help you focus on movement and sensations in your body.
You'll explore “Warrior 1 Pose”, “Dynamic Cobra”, and “Dynamic Twisting Cobra” in this 45-minute class. Warrior poses let you work on leg strength and core stability. You'll lie down to rest at the end of the class.
During the class, try to focus on simple things: your movements, how your body is grounded, and your breathing.
Do not force your breathing or continue exercising if you are very short of breath. Choose ways to quit smoking that suit you, including support from a specialist.
