What are the benefits of practicing yoga in winter

More than 80% of women suffer from cold body. Especially in the evening, the symptoms will be more obvious. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "Yang deficiency leads to external cold". The body is afraid of cold because its yang qi is weak and its qi and blood are insufficient to warm the muscles to resist the invasion of external cold pathogens. In short, the nerve endings of the hands and feet are far away from the heart. The cold weather causes vasoconstriction, which leads to insufficient blood supply, resulting in cold hands and feet.

However, eating more and doing less will not only make you feel lazy, but also make people gain weight.
