Unfortunately many people with allergies get sinus and chest congestion and are unable to do much exercise, especially those which are aerobic. Certain yoga poses and breathing exercises could provide natural allergy relief. The benefit of yoga is that it can massage and relax your lungs making breathing easier. This does not mean that you need to do hours and hours of yoga. If you are turned off by the thought of yoga do not even think of it as yoga but more like doing advanced stretching.


One pose you might try is the fish pose. The benefit of the fish pose is that it stretches the lungs and is fairly easy for the beginner to do. A good breathing exercise which could help in sinus relief is known as the breath of fire. When doing yoga for the first time do not worry if you are not able to do a pose or exercise exactly like it should be done. It takes time for your bodies muscles to learn some poses. You should do them as complete as you can and try to get the spirit of the movement. Never continue to do anything that causes you pain or discomfort. The video below shows the fish pose which is not to hard to do. The second video is of fire breathing.

The best thing to do would be to get professional instruction to get the most benefit. You could also buy a dvd or book to help you if you are to shy to go to a class in person. It is important not to push yourself and to know your own bodies limits. If your immune system has been really beat down its best to avoid any form of exercise including yoga. The best thing to do is give your body the rest it needs so that your immune system can have a chance to rebuild and recover.

Will yoga help you with your allergies? Well maybe, if you are looking for something to provide natural allergy relief its worth a try. Its free and each exercise only takes a few minutes a day to do if you can find ones that help. Nothing works for everyone as everyone’s body is different so you shouldn’t be afraid to try different things or discouraged if they do not work.
