Some of these challenges are easily avoidable with proper preparedness. Every proficient yogi once started as a novice and probably made mistakes of their own. Here are common new yogi mistakes that can be avoided even before stepping foot into a yoga studio:
Rushing Yourself: Yoga should be calming, if you are not giving yourself enough time to get ready, commute and settle in before the class starts, you are not doing yourself any favors. Scheduling your yoga classes for times where you will not be rushed is instrumental in a healthy practice regimen.
Incorrect Clothing: Comfortability and flexibility are both crucial in yoga success, luckily proper yoga attire is easy to find. Yoga clothing should not be too loose or too tight. Proper fitting attire is also important because constant wardrobe fixing would disrupt your Drishti, the focused yogic gaze that helps improve balance, awareness and concentration.
Never Trying Challenging Poses: One of the most important aspects of yoga is moving at your own pace. Staying in your comfort zone is easy and relaxing, but the only way to reach your full practice potential is to try advanced poses. Make sure you listen to your body and take measured steps to push yourself a bit more than your last class, and soon you will be a proficient yogi.
