It is best to remove your socks to help stimulate the approximately 72,000 nerve endings in your feet. Wait two to three hours after eating before you practice yoga and meditation. This will help you gain the maximum benefits, plus it is easier to exercise on an empty stomach. If you must eat, have something very light. Bring your yoga mat.
