Bikram and Bronchitis

topic posted Mon, September 17, 2007 - 11:33 AM by 
I'm desperate to get back to my Bikram practice, but am recovering from bronchitis. It occurred to me that the humidity in the room might actually help, but I'm also worried about being a disturbance to the class (still some residual coughing). Anyone have any advice/experience they can share?

Thanks!

    The pranayama breathing will help to clear out and strenghten your lungs. The practice itself will fortify your immune system.

    I had pnuemonia a couple of years ago and getting back into the heat felt great on my lungs. Don't worry if you cough a little in class. You'll cough less in class than out.
