Health Benefits Of Yoga

Regular yoga practice can help to maintain the whole body: improving appearance, posture, muscle and skin tone, strengthening the bones and making the joints more mobile.
The tendency to back pain can be reduced as the spine becomes more flexible due to frequent stretching and mobility exercises.
Digestion can be improved since effective breathing stimulates the whole digestive system and abdominal massage stimulates the organs inside the abdomen.
Fewer and less intense headaches can result from stretching and exercising the spine, relieving pressure on the bones of the neck, and from improved circulation and reduced blood pressure.
Practicing yoga breathing exercises can help deepen breathing and encourage rhythmic, effective breathing, relieving disorders such as asthma and hyperventilation.
The heart benefits from regular exercise and effective breathing, which stimulates blood circulation and can reduce blood pressure.
A relaxed posture results from exercising regularly, improving balance and reducing the risk of injury to all the major joints of the body.
Thinking and habits can be transformed. Whatever you think are the limits of your abilities now ... they can change, at any age. Addictions can be left behind and positive behaviours can be taken up. Your life can become positive and choice-led, rather than habit-led.
