Ok, so, I tried a 90 minutes hot yoga (in a 40ºC/105ºF) for the first time last night. And I only survived for 10 minutes before my heart beating very fast, feeling like vomiting and fainting spells... Sooo embarrassing!!! Anyone here have any experience with hot yoga?

    I did hot yoga for about 20 days. If I felt overheated I would just sit down & gulp my water then try to get up again. After a few tries, I didn't have to sit down that much.

    I used to do it a lot, too much. It's normal to feel that way your first few times. Lie down and try to just stay in the room until you feel you can participate further. Accelerated heart beat happens to everyone, that's normal. Don't eat before going. Drink a lot of water before and during.
