Exercise
Foundational Approach to Health – Exercise
Exercising regularly relieves tension, anxiety, and depression as well as improving your overall health. Regular exercise improves mental acuity and memory. The immune system is strengthened, blood pressure lowered, and a reduction in the risk of a heart attack and other chronic diseases are accomplished with just thirty minutes of moderate physical activity daily, according to the American Heart Association.
In Yoga practice, a person is considered to be as young as his or her spine; the greater the flexibility and strength of the spine, the healthier the individual. Hence, our core yoga exercise app focuses primarily on increasing the strength and flexibility of the spine.
Exercise also breaks down fibrous strands of connective tissue formed by inactivity or inflammation. The longer the period of inactivity, the thicker and stronger the adhesions become. The complications of this include limited range of moment and impaired functioning of organs. Thus exercise helps maintain the flexibility that is important for overall health.
Additional benefits of exercise arise through its effects on the endocrine system, whose glands balance the various hormones used to control bodily functions. Practicing certain asanas (specific yoga positions) can help massage specific glands to promote better hormonal balance.
Other benefits of yoga include:
- A decrease in blood pressure through better circulation
- Better circulation enhances the oxygen flow to organs and the brain
- Gastrointestinal functions improve through massaging and detoxifying positions
- A balanced and more efficient metabolism
