How is yoga different from exercise at a gym?
With no equipment necessary it is easy to do yoga anywhere. Yoga includes meditation, breathing techniques, selfless service, and many other components that are not merely physical feats. Depending on the kind of class, your heart rate may not increase dramatically, making yoga a great practice for people who suffer from heart problems. Yet it still efficiently delivers oxygen throughout the body’s muscles and tissues with a focus on deep diaphragm breathing. It is low-impact so any body type can do it and it is a rehabilitating exercise for people with health problems. It increases flexibility, endurance, strength and tones and lengthens muscles.
