The Benefits of yoga and meditation work remarkably well to achieve harmony and help the mind
work in synchronization with the body.

How often do we find that we are unable to perform our activities properly and in a satisfying manner because when we are undergoing mental stress.

Stress is the number one suspect affecting all parts of our physical, endocrinal and
emotional system. And with the help of yoga this things can be corrected.

At the physical level, yoga and its cleansing practices have proven to be extremely
effective for various disorders.

Listed below are just some of the benefits that you can get

 

Benefits number 1: Yoga is known to increase flexibility; it has postures that
trigger the different joints of the body. Including those joints that are not acted upon
with regular exercises routines.

Benefits number 2: It  also increases the lubrication of joints, ligament and
tendons. The well-researched yoga positions help to exercise the different tendons and
ligaments of the body. Yoga is ideal if you feel you are not very flexible.

Benefits number 3: Breathing correctly whilst undergoing yoga helps massage all the organs of your body. Yoga is perhaps the
only exercise that can work on through your internal organs in a thorough manner,
including those that hardly get externally stimulated during our entire lifetime. (yoga is also great to keep bowel movements healthy)

Benefits number 4: Yoga acts in a wholesome manner on the various body parts.
This stimulation and massage of the organs in turn benefits us by keeping away
disease and providing a forewarning at the first possible instance of a likely onset of
disease or disorder.

One of the far-reaching benefits of yoga is the uncanny sense of awareness that it
develops in the practitioner of an impending health disorder or infection.

This in turn enables the person to take pre-emptive corrective action

Benefits number 5: offers a complete detoxification of the body. It gently
stretches the muscles and joints, massaging the various organs, yoga
ensures the optimum blood supply to various parts of the body.

This helps in the flushing out of toxins from every nook and cranny of your body as
well as providing nourishment up to the last point. This leads to benefits such as
delayed ageing, energy and a remarkable zest for life.

Benefits number 6:  is also an excellent way to tone your muscles. Muscles
which have been flaccid and weak are stimulated repeatedly to shed excess fats and
flaccidity.

But these enormous physical benefits are just a “side effect” of this powerful
practice. What yoga does is harmonize the mind with the body and these results in
real quantum benefits.

Yoga and Mind & Meditation – It is now an open secret that the will of the mind has enabled people to achieve
extraordinary physical feats, which proves beyond doubt the mind and body
connection.

In fact yoga = meditation, because both work together in achieving the common
goal of unity of mind, body and spirit which can lead to an experience of eternal bliss
that you can only feel through yoga.

The meditative practices through yoga help in achieving an emotional balance
through detachment.

This in turn creates a remarkable calmness and a positive outlook, which also has
tremendous benefits on the physical health of the body.

Choosing the right Yoga Mat – This is a personal choice and yoga mats vary from width, length and material. With so many to choose from its difficult to say which mat is best, but certainly a good mat is worth some investment as cheap and low quality mats will not last long and can spoil your yoga practice. So if choosing a yoga mat try and get the best you can afford.
