Importance of yoga

Why a few minutes of yoga each day changes how you feel.

Yoga is more than stretching. It improves balance, strengthens deep core muscles and calms the nervous system.

You don't need an hour-long class. Ten minutes of sun salutations in the morning wakes up the body, while a few restorative poses before bed help you sleep.

Listen to your body, breathe slowly and let consistency do the work.
