What attributes define a safe yoga practice?

A safe yoga practice is characterized by proper alignment and awareness of body limits. This means that practitioners are conscious of their physical capabilities and any limitations they may have. Proper alignment helps to prevent injuries by ensuring that the body is positioned correctly in each pose, promoting effective and safe movements. By being aware of individual body limits, practitioners can modify poses as needed, avoid pushing themselves too far, and practice mindfulness in their movements. This careful attention to both alignment and personal physicality creates a foundation for a safe and beneficial yoga experience, allowing individuals to explore their practice without risking injury.
