Benefits of Yoga

Yoga when used as a form of alternative medicine is a combination of physical postures, breathing exercises, and meditation. Yoga heals mind and body by stimulating the energy centers of the body known as ‘chakras’.Yoga has been used for medicinal purposes for over 5,000 years.

Yoga promotes whole-body fitness

• Yoga exercises ease tense muscles, tone up the internal organs, and improve the flexibility of the body’s joints and ligaments.
• Yoga will release endorphins in the brain just as any other exercise program will, and produce a feeling of well-being.
• Yoga postures, while exercising muscles and joints, also stretch, extend, and flex the spine, keeping the body strong and supple.
• Yoga stimulates blood circulation throughout the body. Yoga can be practiced by anyone of any age.
• Yoga postures release stiffness and tension, help to renew energy, restore health, and promote graceful aging. Yoga is great preventive medicine, because it keeps all of you-body, mind, attitude, outlook, and immune system-in top form.

Yoga is great stress buster

Yoga tackles stress on many levels.

• The asanas trains the body to do exactly what you tell it to do.
• Pranayama consciously channel the flow of life force, prana, into and out of the body. Physiologically, deep, regular breathing sends a signal to each cell of your body to relax.
• Yoga meditation calms your racing thoughts and exercises your ability to master your own mind, rather than let your mind master you.
• Yoga is a physical, mental, and spiritual way of life that puts reality into perspective. Yoga doesn’t change your stressful circumstances, but it does teach you how to react to them without neglecting or injuring yourself.

Yoga increases inner strength and sets you free

• Yoga can be a fitness program, but it can also be a path to greater self-knowledge and, ultimately, self-actualization.
• Yoga helps you reach the fullness of your human potential. You will be more confident, stronger, healthier, and more at peace with who you are. You will make better decisions, set and achieve worthwhile goals, and become the person you want to be.

The medical community increasingly embraces yoga. Health professionals have long encouraged patients to practice yoga. Yoga is an integral part of many stress management programs endorsed and paid for by HMOs and other medical insurance companies.

In short, by practicing yoga, you can have healthy and happy life.
