YOGA
WHAT IS
Yoga is a holistic practice that combines physical postures, breathing exercises and meditation to promote physical and mental well-being. Originating in ancient India, yoga is known for improving flexibility, strength, and balance. Additionally, it reduces stress and improves mindfulness. Plus, it can be adapted to all ages and fitness levels, making it a versatile and inclusive form of exercise.
Regular yoga practice can improve brain function and mood by increasing levels of GABA, a brain chemical linked to reducing anxiety and increasing positivity.
