You can pick up vegetable seeds and tomato plants at the annual spring kickoff held in the main library building, and incorporate wildflowers to add color and variety and attract pollinators.
Incorporating stretching and yoga into your pre-gardening routine not only improves flexibility and strength, but also promotes mindfulness, making for a more enjoyable and productive gardening experience. The last cold snap is becoming a distant memory and it’s time to make your garden dreams a reality. He only has one small challenge. The key is how to avoid overdoing the physical labor involved in gardening.
Excessive lifting, squatting, pulling, bending, and other movements can increase your heart rate and strengthen your muscles, but can also cause pain. Warming up your green thumb before exercising can relieve joint and muscle pain.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention considers gardening to be a moderate activity. One way to warm up is yoga. For the uninitiated (I’m at the top of this column), the term “yoga” includes multiple types.
While writing this article, I found sources that listed between 7 and 28 types. And how many yoga poses? One of the sources I found mentions David Gordon White, author of the book “Yoga in Practice,” which he says has over 84,000 yoga poses. What should I do? What should I do?
I searched for “yoga garden routine” (where would I be without the internet?) and found numerous articles and YouTube videos.
When I decided to write about it, Mark Tancig, a commercial/residential gardening agent with UF/IFAS Extension Leon County, sent me a publication put together by several Master Gardener agents in Florida.
Is there anywhere I can download this? It’s 10 pages long and includes a full description and images for each pose. The great thing about yoga is that doing it slowly gives you time to shift your focus from yourself and the universe to you and your garden. Once you have completed this plan, you can decide how you want to spend this time most productively.
But it’s not over yet.
After completing daily tasks, it is best to cool down. Restorative yoga is all about unwinding and relaxing your mind after a long day. The core of this style focuses on relaxing the body. One of the sources I found (https://littleiveryoga.com) offers yoga workouts that you can do at home.
It may be wise to consult your doctor before choosing yoga as your gardening warm-up. Certain medical conditions may prevent its use, including high blood pressure, glaucoma, osteoporosis, arthritis, joint replacement surgery, and pregnancy.
