Benefits of Yoga

Yoga is amazingly complete. 
The physical benefits of yoga--widely reported in medical journals and mainstream press shows us that yoga cultivates cardiovascular health, and musculo-skeletal strength and flexibility. 
It tunes and tones each organ system-respiratory, digestive, reproductive, endocrine, lymphatic and nervous. 
Practicing yoga reduces the negative effects of stress and "dis"-ease and cultivates the body's capacity to relax.
With a regular yoga practice, we feel better, we move better, we breathe better, we sleep better, we digest our food better.  We may even begin to recover from chronic illness.
These physical benefits of yoga--may be only the tip of the iceberg. 
Regular practitioners of yoga describe a whole host of subtle transformations in their lives. 
Many experience increased mental focus and clarity, heightened perception and intuitive powers. 
Many practitioners experience an increase in energy levels, weight loss or regulation, and stamina. 
Many yogis describe feeling more emotionally "balanced".
