Yoga as the Antidote for the Stressors of Life
One of the reasons yoga is so effective at alleviating pain in the lower back, neck, and shoulders is that it works on a number of different levels simultaneously: loosening up joint restrictions, stretching tight muscles, re-activating weak muscles, adjusting alignment, relaxing the body, and calming the mind. A regular yoga practice has the potential to prevent and heal injury, to make you stronger, fitter, more supple, to enhance your physical performance, and to sharpen your mental focus.
As incredibly beneficial as an active lifestyle is to our physical and psychological health, unfortunately, there can be a downside if you don’t put back what you take out. This is where active recovery techniques like yoga come in.
Active Recovery in Minutes
If yoga is not your primary passion, it can be hard to find time to dedicate to recovery, which is why these 15-minute yoga sequences are designed to fit around your busy schedule.
This course includes 21 videos that cover:
- Flexibility
- Balance
- Strength
- Mobility
- Relaxation
- Mental Training
People often ask how yoga is different than stretching, and the truth is, yoga includes stretching, but it does so in an advanced and functional way, combining it with movement, strength training, balance work, and breathing techniques. Consistency is the key to restoring optimal health to your body, so try to commit to a daily practice for 21 days and see how you feel. Even the busiest among us have a spare 15 minutes!
This course will help relieve the following:
- Repetitive Strain In life, we repeat the same movement patterns over and over which can cause uneven wear and tear on certain muscles and joints and establish muscular imbalances.
- Stress Overload Physical activity is a stressor, albeit a healthy one, so if you try to cram even a moderately active lifestyle on top of your already overwhelming work, family, and social responsibilities, something is going to have to give.
- Loss of Flexibility When you do any physical activity your muscles get short and tight. If you don’t stretch carefully afterwards to restore muscle tissue length, they can remain in this partially contracted state and you’ll start to lose flexibility over time.
- Use It or Lose It Active pursuits prioritize a narrow range of movements that your body adapts to be optimally efficient at, even at the cost of losing range of motion.
At the end of this course you'll:
- Be free from chronic pain
- Be more flexible
- Have better posture
- Have better balance and coordination skills
- Have greater core strength
- Feel calmer and more centered
