Yoga is recognized as a form of mind-body medicine that integrates an individual's physical, mental and emotional aspects to improve overall health, particularly stress related illnesses.
Yoga, an over 5000 year old tradition of healing, is now regarded in the Western world as a holistic approach to health. The National Institutes of Health classifies yoga as a form of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM).
By focusing on breath regulation as well as physical exercises, yoga has the potential to help balance cortisol levels in the body (the stress hormone). Practicing yoga regularly promotes strength, endurance and flexibility while facilitating characteristics of friendliness, compassion, greater self-control and well-being.
