5) Weight reduction

Yoga is an excellent way to reduce body fat. Through the combination of stretching, strengthening and breathing, it helps burn calories and tone muscles. In addition, the deep relaxation experienced during yoga practice helps reduce stress hormones that can cause weight gain. Also, the increased flexibility that comes from yoga can lead to improved posture and a slimmer look.

6) Cardio and circulatory health

Yoga helps to improve your heart health by improving blood circulation, decreasing blood pressure, and strengthening the cardiovascular system. The breathing exercises and poses increase your lung capacity and help to bring more oxygen to the muscles, which increases their endurance and strength. Additionally, regular yoga practice can help to reduce cholesterol levels and improve overall cardiovascular health.
