As we age, our bodies go through various changes which are a natural part of life. Some of these include: Strength & muscle mass decrease, decrease in bone density, joint stiffness & arthritis, decreased balance & fitness, & many more! However, this doesn’t mean that we need to resign to a life of frailty and lessening abilities!!
The practice of yoga has many benefits which includes cultivating a mind, body, connection. Asanas (yoga poses) are the poses that you do when practicing yoga and depending on which one you incorporate into your practice, it can greatly increase mindfulness and help to calm your nervous system. This is achieved by focusing on your breath, body, and being in the present moment.
You don't have to be an accomplished yogi to get amazing benefits from yoga. Yoga is wonderful and can help to calm and destress you. It helps to activate your parasympathetic system (rest and digest) and can leave you nice and relaxed.
