Research has also shown that regular practice of Yoga can lead to a reduction in the symptoms associated with chronic low back pain.

The physical benefits will allow the body to thrive more in any life experience or given situation. Be it sitting more comfortably during a movie, reducing the risk of injury for an athlete or for some one to over all have a greater level of well-being.

The positive effect of Yoga extends beyond just the physical benefits. With awareness of breathing and connecting breathe with movement, Yoga has been shown to reduce stress and the release of stress related hormones such as cortisol, reduce anxiety, improve concentration, mental clarity and lead to a calmer mind.
