Yoga can not only improve life span but, also, allows us to enjoy this life more fully. We have listed just a few of the ways in which yoga supports us in our life below, but in truth there is so much more than this.
Reduces Stress
Yoga has been shown to reduce stress levels and promote relaxation, which has a positive impact on health and longevity.
Improves Cardiovascular Health
Studies have found that practising yoga regularly improves circulation and reduces blood pressure and cholesterol levels, improving cardiovascular health, helping to prevent heart disease.
Increases Flexibility
A regular yoga practice can help improve flexibility and range of motion, reducing the risk of injury and keeping us mobile as we age.
Improves Balance
Balance and coordination can decrease with age but a yoga practice can keep us on track, reducing the risk of falls and allowing us to live more fully.
Boosts Immunity
Research has shown that yoga positively affects the immune system, helping the body fight off infection, protecting us against illness and disease.
Increases Strength
A consistent practice builds strength in our system, improving overall fitness, reducing the risk of injury.
Reduces Inflammation
Chronic inflammation has been linked to many health problems, including heart disease and cancer but yoga has been shown to reduce inflammation in the body.
Improves Sleep
Yoga has been shown to reduce insomnia and improve sleep quality which has a massive positive impact on health and wellbeing.
Emotional Regulation
A regular yoga practice helps to cultivate more awareness as we move through our life. We are able to be with the emotions that arise within us instead of collapsing under the weight of them and this capacity dramatically improves mental health.
Improves Mood
Yoga has been shown to improve mood and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression which really upgrades our quality of life.
