The Benefits of Yoga

A Mind-Body-Spirit practice that can support you away from the therapy space.

Yoga has many benefits for your over all well being. Yoga is a great practice to have on active recovery days in between gym sessions, when you’re feeling stressed or anxious, when you’re feeling pain or tightness in your body and when you need to move through heavy emotions.

Yoga is a practice that encompasses the mind, body, spirit connection for a complete holistic journey.

Benefits include:

* increased flexibility

* Improved balance

* increased strength

* improved muscle tone

* drainage of lymphatic system for removal of toxins

* better focus & mental clarity

* improved sleep

* lowers stress hormones

* nervous system regulation

* connection to higher Self

* and more

Laying in Shavasana (or corpse pose) at the end of yoga allows your body to receive the full benefits of the practice. It also allows for the mind to quiet down in preparation for meditation. Try being an observer of your thoughts, allowing them to come and go without any judgement or emotional response.

A yoga practice is a perfect addition to your journey into therapy that can support you in nourishing your mind, body & spirit when you’re away from the therapy space.
