Yoga makes me extremely anxious, anyone else experience this?

[t_time]

I have tried 4 yoga classes now. Yoga is suppose to be calming. But it does the exact opposite for me. My axiety is way way way up, after yoga and in the middle of the class.. I am constantly shaking (It's not because the moves are hard, it's because my anxiety level is so high.)

Why wouldn't it?

Girl, I was nervous first time I wore my stretchy pants too. But after while you get used to all dem men looking at you juicy butt. Shoo, I charge for it now coz they be droolin over it like some hungry wolves just wandered out da woods and seen a fat ass for the first time. You ask ol' @decalfong he can't keep that little chopstick away from me.

I have only had two yoga classes but I did not feel calm. i was too busy trying to do it right. When I have more time I plan on taking yoga again. I need more flexibility.

It's definitely good for flexibility. That's why I decided I was going to try it. I don't mind it when it's really fast paced. But once it starts to get really slow. I hate it

If you are going to do something for anxiety I'd recommend taking a bubble bath or something, I don't see how trying to balance yourself while anxious would help you lol

Yah I keep trying it in hope of a better result. I did it more for flexibility. I have bad axiety as is I hoped it might be better over time with yoga. But it keeps getting worse

[ChicoFromThe305]

Well anxious about stuff and having to worry about balance and flexibility doesn't sounds like a clicking mix, the opposite of anxiety is relaxation, try something with full relaxation and no physical effort.

is it the yoga itself?

or maybe being among that many people?

[jahaims]

Then do it at home. Sounds like you have social anxiety or are self conscious of exercising in public

[FenixG45]

Have you tried Restorative Yoga? It is the most relaxing yoga style MANY do it before sleeping.
