YOGA IS EFFECTIVE IN THE PREVENTION AS WELL AS MANAGEMENT OF STRESS AND
STRESS-INDUCED DISORDERS. IT HAS BEEN OBSERVED THAT YOGA DECREASES
ANXIETY, STRESS, AND LEVELS OF SALIVARY CORTISOL AS WELL AS PLASMA RENIN LEVELS
AND 24-H URINE NOREPINEPHRINE AND EPINEPHRINE LEVELS.
YOGA HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE HELPFUL IN MAINTAINING OVERWEIGHT PROBLEMS AND
OBESITY. REGULAR YOGA PRACTICE FOR 1 DAY CAN HELP IN CONTROLLING BLOOD PRESSURE
IN HYPERTENSIVE SUBJECTS. YOGA HAS A GREAT POSITIVE IMPACT ON OUR BRAINS.
ASANA, PRANAYAMA, MEDITATION, AND DIET ARE THE FOUR PILLARS OF YOGA. HANDSTAND
SCORPION IS CONSIDERED AS THE MOST DIFFICULT YOGA POSE BECAUSE IT REQUIRES GOOD
FLEXIBILITY, PERFECT CONTROLLED BALANCE, AND PLENTY OF STRENGTH. WHEREAS HATHA
YOGA IS CONSIDERED AS BEST FOR BEGINNERS BECAUSE IT IS SLOWER THAN OTHER YOGA
STYLES AND EASY TO PERFORM. IF SOMEONE IS A BEGINNER THEN HATHA YOGA IS A GREAT
ENTRY POINT TO THE PRACTICE.
BASICALLY, THE AIM OF YOGA IS TO ACHIEVE SELF-RESPECT, CONTROL THE BREATH, ACHIEVE DEEP RELAXATION, LOOK GOOD AND GROW THROUGH MEDITATION. BUT THERE ARE SOME RULES OF YOGA WHICH ONE SHOULD FOLLOW FOR THE BETTER RESULTS IT SHOULD NOT BE PERFORMED IN A STATE OF EXHAUSTION, ILLNESS, IN A HURRY, OR IN ANY KIND
OF STRESS CONDITION. WOMEN SHOULD AVOID YOGA DURING THEIR MENSES IN PLACE OF THAT THEY CAN DO RELAXATION TECHNIQUES AND PRANAYAMA. ONE SHOULD NEVER DO YOGA AFTER MEALS.
