Yoga is good for our body and soul

I keep saying...

Yoga works your whole body and can help you build core strength and flexibilit­y. It may help to strengthen muscles that don’t get much attention during other body workouts, such as your lower back.

The exercise takes your joints and tissue that surrounds them through a full range of movement. This may help improve the flow of oxygen-rich blood to these parts of your body. In addition to building strength and flexibilit­y, yoga stimulates your internal organs, glands and nerves. It also aims to help you relax and concentrat­e on your breathing. It does this by balancing your autonomic nervous system which, as its name implies, works automatica­lly and helps regulate key body processes such as your rate of breathing and blood pressure.
