Here are some good reasons why yoga can be so beneficial:
- Improvement of body luster and general health
- When your mind focuses on a particular part of the body, the blood flow to that part increases and cells receive more oxygen and other nutrients in abundance.
- Today, many of the film stars and fashion models include meditation in their daily regimen
- Improvement in concentration
- Many of the athletes and sports professionals regularly employ meditation methods. Studies have found a direct correlation between concentration exercises (meditation) and the performance level of sports professionals.
- Meditation strengthens the mind, it comes under control and is able to provide effective guidance to the physical body to effectively execute all its projects.
Some benefits of meditation are:
- It lowers oxygen consumption
- Decrease in respiratory rate
- Increases blood flow and lowers heart rate
- Increases exercise tolerance in heart patients
- Good for people with high blood pressure as it brings the B.P. to normal.
- Reduces anxiety attacks by lowering the levels of blood lactate.
- Decreases muscle tension (any pain due to tension) and headaches.
- It increases serotonin production which influences mood and behaviour. Low levels of serotonin are associated with depression, obesity, insomnia and headaches.
- Enhances the immune system. Research has revealed that meditation increases activity of 'natural-killer cells', which kill bacteria and cancer cells.
- Reduces Pre- menstrual Syndrome.
- Helps post-operative healing
