It eases pain 

Research has shown that performing various yoga exercises can relieve pain, and that can include all kinds of pain. Think of neck and back issues, but even cancer patients can experience relief. 

It improves blood circulation 

During yoga, you perform many different poses, which allow oxygen-rich blood to better reach your body’s cells. 

It can prevent colds 

Yoga gives your immune system a significant boost. Not only that but practicing yoga helps clear your nasal passages and brings your body to a state of full relaxation. 

It helps you maintain a healthy weight

You’ll become more flexible 

This might not be news to you, but yoga will make you more flexible. By practicing regularly, your muscles will lengthen over time, enabling you to take on new poses or hold existing ones more easily and for longer periods.
