Hello everyone:

 

Once I read in a yoga book that one should not take a

shower after doing yoga., I live in a hot weather, and

usually train early in the morning, and then go to

work.

 

I wait about 30 mins. before showering, and I was

wondering if takin a shower after, may affect the

benefits you get from KY (i´m new to this list).

 

And, is it the same, if it´s a cold or warm shower?

 

Thanks

 

Carlos

Hi, everyone. I'm new to the group but not new to yoga or spiritual

practice. I always take one after so I'm not all sweaty before work. And I

do sweat after a KY session! Then, after the shower, I sit and meditate and

do morning prayers. I actually use my hot morning shower as part of sadhana

and if it's all in the wrong order, I still don't see myself changing it

since, first, I have to make a living and I'm required to smell clean and

nice in my job and second, I'm benefiting very nicely from the practices.

I'm 36 years old and am often told I look and move like someone 10 years

younger than that! Just my two cents...:-)

Sat Nam friends:

 

We recommend that you take a cold shower before you begin your

practice - note that this is hydrotherapy, and is designed to

stimulate your glands (as well as other benefits) and is an excellent

preparation for yoga.

 

YB recommends that you do not take hot showers unless you have

several hours to wrap up in a blanket afterward: use a luke-warm

shower for cleansing purposes.

 

I recommend taking a (lukewarm) shower after your sadhana (rather

than between the yoga and the meditation). Yoga prepares you to sit,

and stimulates energy movement in a way that facilitates meditation,

and stopping to take a shower in-between is probably not the best

sequence.

 

My routine is cold shower, yoga, meditation, and then I usually have

a little fruit and/or some yogi tea, and then I go walking. After

this I take a warm shower and eat something more solid.

 

Love & blessings,

Sadhant
