The change of seasons not only transforms the landscape, it also influences how we feel physically and mentally. As the cold transitions to warmer weather, our bodies experience adjustments in internal temperature, circulation, and energy. Therefore, it's important to adapt our yoga and exercise practices to align with these changes and get the most out of each session.
Here's how to adjust your workout to the transition from cold to warm, and why choosing the right clothing, like Nawmaste tops and leggings, can make all the difference in your comfort and performance.
1. How the weather affects your body and energy
Cold and heat impact our bodies and our wellness practices differently.
❄️ In winter:
- Muscles tend to be stiffer, which can make warming up more important.
- Greater effort is required to maintain energy and fluid circulation.
- More intense and slower movements are recommended to generate internal heat.
☀️ In spring/summer:
- Blood circulation improves and muscles are more flexible.
- Breathing becomes more active and may feel lighter.
- It's ideal to incorporate more fluid movements and refreshing breaths to avoid overheating.
Nawmaste Tip: For these transitions, it's essential to choose clothing that adapts to each season. On warm days, opt for lightweight, breathable fabrics like those in our Nawmaste collection, which will help you stay cool while you move.
2. Recommended postures and practices according to temperature
Adjusting your yoga practice according to the season can make each session feel more natural and aligned with your energy.
🌿 For cold days:
- Warrior II Pose (Virabhadrasana II): Activates circulation and generates internal heat.
- Sun Salutation (Surya Namaskar): A dynamic sequence that warms the body.
- Chair Pose (Utkatasana): Strengthens the core and legs, keeping energy high.
☀️ For hot days:
- Child's Pose (Balasana): Relaxes and lowers body temperature.
- Pigeon Pose (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana): Relieves tension without generating excessive heat.
- Cooling Breath (Sitali Pranayama): Helps cool the body and calm the mind.
💡 Nawmaste Tip: Wear breathable, airy clothing. Tops with light support and leggings with quick-drying fabrics are ideal for staying comfortable on hot days.
3. The importance of choosing the right clothing
Just as we adjust our wellness routine to the weather, it's also important to choose clothes that will last through every season.
🌟 Nawmaste tops are designed to give you the necessary support without sacrificing freshness and freedom of movement.
🌟 Our high-waisted leggings adapt to your body and allow your skin to breathe, preventing the feeling of heaviness on hot days.
Comfort is key to enjoying your practice without distractions. Therefore, investing in clothing that meets your seasonal needs will make every yoga or exercise session even more enjoyable.
The change in weather is an opportunity to refresh your wellness practice and adjust it to your body's needs. Whether you need more energy in the winter or more refreshment in the summer, adapting your routine and choosing the right clothing will help you flow with each season.
