Yoga promotes relaxation by combining physical postures, controlled breathing, and mindfulness, which can lower stress hormones and enhance the body's relaxation response. It helps release tension, improves focus, and fosters a sense of calm, making it an effective stress reliever.

Yoga can help reduce stress because it promotes relaxation, which is the natural opposite of stress. Yoga can benefit three aspects of ourselves that are often affected by stress: our body, mind, and breathing. You don't have to wait to feel stressed out to do yoga, and you shouldn't!
