Why should I do this yoga thing? Isn’t it just glorified stretching? Quite the contrary, yoga has been shown to help alleviate stress, improve mobility, flexibility, and strength, as well as improve brain function and cognition associated with memory. Yoga has also been shown to reduce anxiety and depression as well. Many studies have even confirmed that a consistent yoga practice can help to alleviate back pain, reduce headache frequency and intensity, minimize shoulder, and neck tension, as well as improve circulation in the body, improve digestion and lower blood pressure. It is deeply restorative for the body and the mind. With all of these great benefits, why not start? You’ve got nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
