15 minute CALMING YOGA for Stress Relief and Anxiety

Calming Yoga for Stress Relief and Anxiety

Yoga has been considered as the oldest practice of self development since it was started many years ago, like thousands of years. The process of traditional yoga includes ethical disciplines, physical postures, breathing control, and meditation.

Usually yoga is an Eastern practice; and it’s now being practiced in the West as well and in other parts of our world. As a matter of fact, many businesses, particularly in Britain, are already seeing the benefits of yoga, distinguish that calm workers are healthier and more productive, and are supporting yoga fitness courses.

It has been shown in different studies worldwide that even a little bit of yoga practice in the morning, lunch or evening can help in minimizing stress and anxiety and instead increases productivity.  Practicing yoga is so effective for stress relief because, other than the physical benefits that yoga brings, it promotes an excellent mood, an increase in self awareness, and a healthy dose of mindfulness.

Benefits of practicing yoga

·         Detox

There are certain yoga programs that focus on this kind of benefit you can receive when you practice yoga. And particular yoga poses can actually give you this increased flow of oxygenated blood in the body.

·         You’ll be more patient

One of the best things you can get from yoga is that it teaches us to let go of the conclusion and give in to the present moment. It’s a peace of mind that everyone is aiming to have.

·         Yoga improves concentration

Yoga improves our concentration by removing the distractions in our brain and teaches us on how to focus mainly on the things that we have to be aware of.

Concentration is simply taking your attention to a single point of focus. In everyday life the mind is easily distracted, this makes it hard to concentrate and get things done, practicing yoga will help you develop your concentration skills.

·         Yoga increases your confidence

When you engage yourself in yoga, you can then start to love yourself more, and you can see improvements, whether it may be physical or mental. You can improve your skills as well, making you confident enough to face day to day challenges.
