Hot properties are warming and stimulating and ideal for invigorating exercises. However, too much heat can lead to irritability and overheating. Cold properties, on the other hand, are calming, soothing and stabilizing, linked to the Vata and Kapha doshas. They help reduce inflammation, calm the mind and calm the nervous system, but when taken excessively can cause lethargy and stagnation.

By understanding and balancing these qualities, you can tailor your yoga practice to meet your unique needs and those of your students. With this knowledge, you can create a harmonious practice that promotes overall well-being and prevents imbalances that can lead to discomfort or health problems.

Watch the video to learn how you can integrate the principles of Hot and Cold Gunas into your yoga practice and enhance your journey to becoming a skilled and knowledgeable yoga teacher.
