Yoga helps us in many ways. Yoga is broadly recognized all over the world as a complementary system of health care and healing. Although yoga is an ancient discipline, having its origin in the Eastern countries and mainly in India, the benefits of yoga for all societies have been well recognized by now. Yoga is also a vast system of tools that helps its practitioners develop self-empowering abilities and abilities to cope with different situations in their daily lives in a creative and productive manner.
The Yogic System of Holistic Self-Care
Therapeutic yoga involves instruction in yoga practice and postures that aim to reduce, alleviate, or prevent emotional, physiological, structural, and spiritual pain. Yogic practices, for example, are known to improve cardiovascular and respiratory functions, enhance body flexibility and muscular strength, reduce chronic pain, stress, depression, and anxiety, help recover from addictive practices, improve sleep patterns, and enhance the overall quality of life for the practitioners.
Modern yogic methodology will often involve practicing techniques of meditation, asana, pranayama. These and other yogic practices will often make the practitioners incorporate many concrete and useful changes in their daily life such as staying off caffeine or alcohol, eating better, leaving jobs or other projects with unnecessary amounts of stress, pressure, and involving unreasonable demands.
