Why should I do yoga

The practice of Yoga Exercises means practicing both your body and your mind. It takes willpower and perseverance to accomplish each Yoga Pose and to practice it daily. But the prize for your perseverance is really worth all the hard work. The practice of Yoga Exercises or Yoga Asanas can improve your health, increase your resistance, and develop your mental awareness. Doing the Yoga Poses requires you to study each pose and execute it

The practice of Yoga can help you recognize your hidden physical and mental potentials. Through the continued performance of Asanas (exercises), you will gain flexibility and strength, and learn to be more relaxed under otherwise stressful situations. Yoga's Relaxation Exercises will open the energy channels, which in turn allows spiritual energy to flow freely. Some yoga poses also massage and tone your internal organs, helping to prevent diseases such as diabetes, arthritis, and hypertension. They also bring balance to internal and glandular functions.

Yoga can also help you cope with stress, relieve tension, and deal with our lives. More importantly, it will help you put your mind in a focused state.

Warning: We encourage everybody to try and practice the Yoga Poses by yourselves at home or in the office. However, if you are feeling uncomfortable or are not able to complete a posture, do not push yourself. Yoga Exercise is not a competition, so just relax and try again. Moreover, do not try Yoga Postures which are beyond your capabilities. It will be helpful to actually sign up for some Yoga Classes where a professional teacher will guide you through each Yoga Pose and make sure you are doing the exercise correctly.  Elixir Health Centre - 011) 678 9022 Peter or Juan
