This International Yoga Day, discover the benefits of Yoga beyond physical health and understand how it can help you improve your mental health and overall well-being.
Studies have shown that regular yoga practice can help reduce anxiety as it promotes a feeling of calmness and relaxation.
Yoga often includes deep breathing and relaxing exercises, which help reduce stress levels by keeping cortisol (the stress hormone) in check.
Yoga fosters mindfulness and being present in the moment without being critical or overthinking. This helps with developing a more self-aware and emotionally resilient mind.
Yoga can not only improve your physical health but also your mood. It increases the levels of serotonin, which regulates your mood and promotes feelings of happiness and well-being.
