YOGA HEART
Yoga Exercise Is Good For
Your Heart
Yoga is a
great exercise program. It provides flexibility and improves your
posture, but it is also a great exercise for your heart.
One of the great things about yoga is that it relieves your stress
levels, and by reducing the amount of stress in your life, it is great
for your heart. Mankind has evolved with a fight or flight
syndrome, and in today’s stressful environment, you can’t run and you
can’t fight, so your stress levels increase to the breaking point.
This is where yoga can be so helpful, after a long hard day at work and
a horrible commute, you can do some simple yoga breathing exercises and
yoga stretching exercises and your mind is cleared from the stress that
is poisoning your system. Your blood pressure goes down and your
heart doesn’t have to work so hard.
And the effects of yoga exercise aren’t just while you perform the
breathing and stretching exercises, it carries over into the next
day. The stressful situations are not as severe as they were
before starting the yoga program. Scientists have found that
people who use yoga exercise have lower blood pressure and fewer heart
related problems than those that don’t use yoga exercise.
You don’t have to use a long exercise program either, just a few
minutes, can make a tremendous difference. Obviously, if you
could dedicate a long period everyday to yoga exercise it would make a
huge difference, but most people have a hard time putting in 15 to 30
minutes getting any kind of exercise.
Well, you can fit yoga in almost anytime and almost anywhere, even
sitting at your desk at work. Sure, you can’t assume a lot of the
different poses at work, but you can perform some of the simple
breathing exercises, and these will have a tremendous impact on your
blood pressure and your heart health.
You’ll be surprised at how many quick breathing exercises you can work
into an average day on the job sitting at your desk. And you long
term heart health will benefit from it.
