DO YOGA ANYTIME, ANYWHERE
TO EASE STRESS
You don't need to put on yoga pants and roll out a mat.
Simply pull up a comfortable chair-at work or
home-and reap the many benefits of yoga.
The more we learn about this ancient practice, the more we
realize its benefits go far beyond flexibility and muscle toning.
Multiple studies show that yoga can positively impact the body by:
helping to regulate blood glucose
levels
keeping the cardiovascular system
in tune
managing stress levels and conditions like depression and anxiety
Yoga
increases neurotransmitters in
adults (and growing)
the body, such as serotonin, dopamine
in the United States,
and oxytocin, while it decreases the
according to the 2016
Yoga in America study
stress hormone cortisol.
