Step 1: Stand straight with your legs wide apart by a distance of at least 3-4 feet.
Even with these yoga pose suggestions, it’s super important to learn and practice them under the supervision and guidance of a yoga instructor or a yoga therapist. Now before I get into the poses, remember: arthritis is no joke. People with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis should avoid high-intensity yoga postures, and prolonged immobility in seated or lying positions. On the other hand, for rheumatoid arthritis you don’t want to be holding poses for that long. Holding poses for a long time to strengthen static muscles is great for osteoarthritis. The asanas I’d recommended for those with osteoarthritis are different from the poses I’d recommend for those with rheumatoid arthritis. Keep in mind, there are a ton of different forms of arthritis and they often have slightly different treatments. Some yoga types, such as Kundalini or Ananda, may involve lengthy meditation or breathing exercises that could be difficult for someone with arthritis to sit through. For others, it may be challenging to hold postures for extended periods of time.
For some, this may include poses that require you to balance on one foot or bend your joints, such as your knees, more than 90 degrees. If you have arthritis, you should avoid poses that can potentially cause any flare ups.
