As a great exercise to meet your physical activity guidelines at any fitness level Yoga can offer something for everyone. We all know the important of regular exercise and yoga adds some added benefits of breathing and relaxation that are unique to this form of physical activity. By focusing on your breath and slowly but deeply bringing air in and exhaling with force you are helping your body to cleanse itself naturally.

If you are having lower back pain that is caused by tight or imbalanced muscles than Yoga can be a great solution. Because of the way that you hold the poses, which are often stretches as well, you get to stretch the sometimes tight muscles of your hamstrings and hip flexors that subsequently release some tension in your lower back. Having a strong core is also another great way to protect and rehab lower back pain and Yoga is excellent for this as there can be a lot of core work.

In this busy and evermore stressful world taking a few minutes to practice Yoga will also help to clear your mind and help melt your stress away. While you are focused on breathing and straining to hold a position your mind is clearer and present which helps to release more of the stress that is also being released by the physical exercise.

Trying a Yoga class or even a Yoga video that you can do at home will provide a multitude of healthy mind and body benefits. If you are unsure that your fitness level is up to par for Yoga there are many beginner Yoga videos and instructors that can help with modified positions. By taking any sort of daily exercise action, including Yoga, you are increasing your quality of life in the best way possible.
