Yoga




               Yoga is a popular meditation technique that is practiced widely and

               is  also  considered  a  popular  form  of  gentle  exercises.  Besides

               helping gain flexibility, strength, balance and even losing weight,


               yoga provides peace to the mind.




               Most  yoga  poses  require  intent  concentration  which itself  has  a

               calming effect on the mind. This focus also helps reduce stress as


               your mind concentrates on your pose and not anything else.



               As you maintain your pose, you also learn to control your breath


               which has a calming effect on the mind and body.



               Although  yoga  isn't  the  complete  cure  for  every  ailment  it  can


               benefit  the  human  body  in  many  ways.   Yoga  is  the  more  cost

               effective therapy for a better and happier life.

                     Improved stamina
