Is it normal to sweat while practicing yoga?
If you sweat more than others during a regular, unheated yoga class, do not worry it’s completely normal.
First, the amount you sweat will depend on the type of yoga you’re doing. You’ll sweat more if you’re doing Core Yoga class than a restorative yin-yoga class. And second, especially if you’re a beginner, you will sweat a lot more than others as your body works harder to do the poses.
If you find that you’re sweating a lot, don’t worry about trying to change that, make sure you’re prepared, which means:
Drinking water - you need to stay hydrated, and since sweat is 98% water, you need to drink water before, during, and after a yoga session. (But not too much because that feeling of water sloshing around your insides while doing Downward Dog will make you feel nauseous).
Taking a towel - a yoga mat towel to protect your mat and a yoga hand towel will be your best friend while you sweat it out.
Listening to your body - if you’re pouring with sweat, you must listen to your body and ensure you’re not overstretching or injuring your muscles. Remember, you can always take a break.
Using the right yoga mat – a non-slip yoga mat with a yoga towel will help you keep from falling during the class, as all the sweat can quickly make things slippery.
