The Best Benefits of YOGA!

Carrie Beisel

The BENEFITS OF YOGA are truly unlimited. Here are a few!

* Increased Flexibility - yoga has positions used by various joints of the body including those joints that we are unaware of or haven't been used for other forms of exercise. * Increasing Lubrication of the joints, ligaments and tendons - likewise, the well-researched yoga positions exercise the different tendons and ligaments of the body.

A body which may have been quite rigid starts experiencing a remarkable flexibility in even those parts which have not been consciously work upon. Through research using yoga positions, proof is evident. Unrelated simple yoga positions (asanas) act upon certain parts of the body in an interrelated manner. When done together, they work in harmony to create a situation where flexibility is attained relatively easily.

* Massaging of ALL organs of the body - Yoga is perhaps the only form of activity which massages all the internal glands and organs of the body in a thorough manner that hardly get externally stimulated much during our entire lifetime. Yoga acts in a wholesome manner on the various body parts. This stimulation and massage of the organs in turn benefits us by keeping away disease and can provide warnings at the first possible instance of an onset of a disease or disorder.

* Decrease in Weight by performing simple asanas and meditation. Once the body is in a constant state of movement (however slight through your yoga practice), including your breathing techniques, metabolism is heightened. You will lose minimal weight without changing your habits, yet the benefits of increased flexibility and decreased stress, you will feel better as a whole.

* Complete Detoxification - By gently stretching muscles and joints as well as massaging the various organs, yoga ensures the optimum blood supply to various parts of the body. This helps in the flushing out of toxins providing nourishment for the entire body. This leads to benefits such as delayed ageing, energy and a remarkable zest for life.

* Excellent Toning of the Muscles - muscles that have become weak or slothy are stimulated repeatedly to shed excess flab & increase tone.
