| Has
it been "proved" that Yoga is good for you? |
| Yes.
Western science has been studying Yoga for nearly 50
years, and the evidence shows numerous physical and
psychological benefits from Yoga. Interestingly, there
seems to be something about Yoga -- vs. exercise and
controlled breathing -- that is beneficial. For example,
a recent study with heart patients showed that those
who followed a stress reduction program that included
many Yoga practices did better than patients who exercised
or did nothing. Further, preliminary studies in the
United States and India suggest that Yoga maybe helpful
for specific conditions, such as asthma, epilepsy, anxiety,
stress and others. |
