Why is yoga so good for you?

---

Yoga practitioners praise yoga for its many benefits. These include:

• Increased flexibility and stamina
  
• Relief from some chronic conditions
  
• improved vitality and wellbeing
  
• Release from tension and emothional blocks
  
• Enhanced body tone
  
• ease of movement and breath
  
• Improved sleep and ability to relax

Many practitioners of yoga report relief from symptoms of fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, arthritis, panic attacks, depression, stress and menopause.

Regular practice of yoga also enhances clarity of mind. The postures and breathing movements help the body naturally relax and find it own rhythms. As muscle tension and strain are released, the mind becomes quiet and open to meditation. At the end of class, participants say they feel energised, refreshed and better able to meet with the challenges of everyday life.
