Safety & Guidelines
Practice safely with Prism
Prism is a wellness and fitness tool, not a medical device. These guidelines help you get the benefit of yoga without unnecessary risk.
Listen to your body
Discomfort during a stretch is normal; sharp pain is not. If a pose causes sharp or shooting pain, stop and choose a gentler modification or skip it entirely.
Use modifications
- Every session includes a "Need a modification?" option — use it whenever a pose doesn't feel right that day.
- Props like a folded blanket or a wall can substitute for a yoga block in most poses.
Know when to skip
If you're pregnant, recovering from surgery, or managing a chronic condition, consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting any new physical practice, including one built by Prism.
Stay hydrated
Keep water nearby, especially for sessions over 20 minutes or in the Strength Builder program.
