Yoga is Good for your health & your soul.

Breathing consciously is the essence of yoga as it assists us in connecting with the subtle energy within. It is through the breath that we are able to navigate different levels of consciousness. Moreover, breathing consciously has a biological effect on our mental, emotional, and physical state.

One of the most significant benefits of deep breathing during yoga practice is the calming effect it has on the mind and body. When we breathe deeply and slowly, it activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps to reduce stress and anxiety levels.
