Benefits of Yoga
Yoga helps increase the GABA hormone in the brain, which is associated with better moods and decreased anxiety. Yoga also plays a key role in memory, awareness, attention, and thoughts. Yoga does not shrink the structured reason for pain, but it does assist in shrinking the perception or experience of pain, by bringing more awareness to the positive.
