It might be a good idea to couple your running training with a less vigorous practice, so you still get the stretch and conditioning you need, without going overboard.Capricious Yogihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02449668681632913425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8950799453323938771.post-53740566108717682292011-12-21T08:40:41.653-05:002011-12-21T08:40:41.653-05:00Great post Rachel! I get yoga hangovers pretty regularly but have never had the vocabulary to describe the feeling. In class it feels really good to go deep in my poses but the next day I feel like rubber, am sore, groggy, and tired. It's one of the main reasons I struggle with continuing my yoga practice while doing running training. Do you think the yoga hangover is caused by pushing too hard in class?alipiacentehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06956049594797359475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8950799453323938771.post-78858281143754314872011-12-19T16:20:48.596-05:002011-12-19T16:20:48.596-05:00I've usually thought about my "yoga hangovers" as the super worn out feeling from overworking in a class...I take a day off when I can tell that is the case. If it a toxins issue MORE WATER and MORE YOGA, please.

Love it and I've definitely had a yoga hangover so I know exactly what you are writing about. I always try to practice kindness towards my body and give it the space it needs after a deeper practice to release and readjust. It's a beautiful thing. :)thatwiseyogihttp://thatwiseyogi.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8950799453323938771.post-20274232962188188402011-12-14T15:39:05.569-05:002011-12-14T15:39:05.569-05:00I might take a day off, but don't judge yoga for it.
