The research is clear

The research is clear. In study after study, the practice of Modern Postural Yoga has been shown to be not only one of the most effective forms of preventative medicine known to humankind, but also one of the best ways to cultivate and maintain good health—both mental as well as physical.

Among the many benefits of a regular yoga practice are:

• Reduced risk of cardiovascular disease
• Reduced cholesterol
• Reduced risk of heart disease
• Reduced stress
• Reduced inflammation
• Easing of chronic pain
• Effective management of anxiety and depression
• Effective management of PTSD
• Increased strength and flexibility
• Improved cognitive function and memory
• Improved immune function
• Improved digestion
• Improved quality of sleep
• Improved bone density
• Improved sexual function

• Higher reported overall quality of life

But there’s a catch: In order for yoga to work, it has to be practiced properly, and what constitutes a proper practice can vary widely from one person to the next. 

Because of this, qualified teachers are vital. Without knowledgable, experienced and ethical

teachers, the practice of yoga can be reduced to haphazard exercise and ineffectual meditation, and can result in anything from minimal or no benefit at all to serious injury.
