RE: Yoga heals better than alcohol, its proved. Йога исцеляет, доказано.(featuring @maryfromsochi as author)
Personally I am against yoga; i dislike saying that because so many people love yoga and it is simply the almost perfect health benefit to a persons lifestyle.
Breathing fitness, lowering risk of disease or injury, flexibility, immune or depression /anxiety and other mental health issues, digestion, heart, blood pressure, diabetes or metabolic syndrome. All these will benefit from yoga...
The trouble is 99 % are like me and too unfit to do intense things like yoga and Pilates. Simply what is the point of me trying to get fit and getting injured for 3 weeks?
Yes accidents and injuries happen with any sedentary or active lifestyle and if you are careful and follow proper instruction and use common sense you are extremely unlikely to get injured with yoga or Pilates.
In the New Age mentality of the Information Age people with Credit Cards expect instant results; therefore with such options and choices it is impossible to use common sense, to understand proper form when doing the programs and how is a novice to find convenient authoritative safe instruction. . .
Reality says the models you see doing yoga are in fact semi-professional athletes; they have spent years working up to down dogs and shoulder stands and read, written, studied and taught with seriously experienced instructors. Essentially they are gym junkies addicted to the endorphin's and lifestyle benefits from these 5,000 year old proven exercise systems.
For the mere mortals who do not want to join the hugely lengthening lines of doctors appointment waiting lists for yoga injuries I have created a 5 or 6 minute a day home program...
A convenient in home routine of 5 or 6 exercises where it is virtually impossible to risk serious injury, 300 seconds per day; no heavy breathing, no pain, no sweating. Plus best of all once you have completed this program for a while you will be smart enough, safe enough, strong enough and fit enough for real exercising like yoga or Pilates.
( I outline a thumb sketch exercise program outline on my steemit blog; but basically it is designed around safety and to hit all the key core and major combination muscle groups ) . . .
Less than one percent of your day to radically reduce your risks to dozens of diseases or injuries, how can that be a bad thing ...
