Yoga improves your health, gives you mental and physical strength, protects you from injury, detoxifies your body and helps you to lose weight. Yoga also helps you to create a strong and flexible body, glowing beautiful skin and gives you peace of mind. Yoga is often understood as only being a series of asanas (yoga poses).
As such, its benefits are only perceived to be at the body level, and we fail to realise the immense benefits yoga offers in uniting the body and mind through breath. Yoga and meditation have the power to improve your intuitive ability so that you spontaneously realise what needs to be done, when and how, to yield positive results. It does work! You only need to experience it yourself.
Remember, Yoga is a continuous process. So keep practicing! The deeper you go into your yoga practice, the more profound will be its benefits. When you are in harmony, the journey through life is calmer, happier and more fulfilling. You will be living with greater awareness, intuition, better relationships, better flexibility & posture and increased energy.
