The mental benefits that yoga provides includes:

                     Improved sleep


                     Reduced stress

                     Body awareness


                     Improved state of mind




               On a spiritual level, yoga aims to help you achieve a complete state

               of  being.  Advanced  yogis  can  develop  inner  strength  that  gives

               them  complete  control  over  their  emotions  and  desires.  On  the


               inside, it enables them to resist temptations and worldly pleasures.



               If you reach an advanced level, you may also be able to learn to


               increase your self-esteem by practicing yoga. Removed from the

               worries of the world, yogis can experience the truth better and start


               to value themselves more.
