YOGA BENEFITS
At the beginning of my practice, a question bothered me for a long time:
How many types of yoga are there?
There are different types of yoga, depending on the style you intend to practice. It can be dynamic, meditative, or traditional, depending on the problems you want to eliminate: stress, insomnia, back pain, inflexibility, hot flashes from menopause, muscle pain, etc.
When you are trying to determine which is the most suitable style of yoga for you, remember that there is no single type and that it will fold according to your needs from that moment on. And yet, how many types of yoga are there?
Here are just a few of them:
Hatha yoga
Ashtanga yoga
Bikram yoga
Iyengar yoga
Kundalini yoga
Restorative yoga
Yin yoga
Prenatal yoga
Anusara yoga
Jivamukti yoga
The benefits of yoga practice
Yoga offers physical and mental health benefits to people of all ages. If you suffer from a chronic condition and are in the recovery phase, yoga can become an integral part of your recovery, with many major benefits that can speed up healing. Here you will find a series of yoga benefits for your physical and mental health.
What are the benefits of yoga for each posture?
What postures should I practice or avoid so that I can obtain the maximum benefits for my current condition, solve certain problems, and enjoy a healthy body, mental-emotional balance, and rapid spiritual progress?
Just breathe!
Yes, breathe deeply and as many times a day as possible, but do it abdominally. The fire breathing technique, an anti-stress technique that you can do at home or at the office, is available here. While the benefits of yoga are many and wonderful, it is important to remember that you will still experience life's ups and downs. It is natural to experience a wide range of feelings and emotions.

Yoga can reduce stress.
Yoga is known for its ability to relieve stress and promote relaxation. Studies show that yoga also helps to lower the level of cortisol, also known as the "stress hormone." The increased levels of cortisol triggered during a persistent state of stress can affect our immune system and increase our blood pressure, which, in turn, can lead to serious mental and physical health problems. There are many specific techniques and methods to combat stress, and all of them have emotional and energetic balancing as a common denominator.
Yoga improves balance and flexibility
I noticed that, with the passing of the years, as I practiced Yin Yoga, my flexibility improved, allowing me to maintain a posture for long periods of time and without effort.
Yoga helps relieve back pain.
Sitting at the office for long periods of time in a nearly motionless posture, being sedentary, and being over 35 all have an impact on the spine and joints. Previously, only mature people over the age of 35-40 had problems with their spine; however, today, even young people, teenagers, are beginning to suffer from various joint and spine diseases. And for that, you need techniques designed to relieve your back pain. Some of them are the dove pose, the sphinx pose, the head-to-knee pose, and the cat pose. If you can't manage to create a yoga practice session on different segments of the spine and on the joints, try to go through the flexibility techniques, relaxation techniques, or muscle toning from the "Healthy joints and flexible spine" course step-by-step.
