For maximum benefits, it is always advisable do all Yoga practices in the sequence indicated.

Also, the best time to for Yoga sessions - after the primary stages of soreness has been overcome - is early in the mornings or evenings, just prior to the evening meal.

Also make sure never to do the practices on a full stomach, wait for at least 3 hours after eating a meal, about half an hour after a light snack and half an hour after having juices; or else as it will detract from the benefits. After all Yoga sessions, wait for at least a quarter of an hour before eating.

Do all practices in a room with the windows open or in a garden. Make sure to use a Yoga mat around 2 centimeters thick of firm foam. Always insist on wearing loose fitting clothes. For best results, aim at doing your Yoga program at least 6 days a week. Never skip sessions, as regularity produces optimum results. If you fee pain, faint, or giddiness in any practices, stop immediately and restart after a few days.

People suffering from hypertension, dizziness or serious eye problems, should avoid all inverted postures (headstand, shoulder stand and reverse posture) until such time as the conditions improve, if not disappear completely.

Remember for real results of Yoga in health and rejuvenation, follow a Yoga diet.
