I started yoga when I was depressed, I started working through my feelings instead of bottling them up, it motivated me to clean my spaces and keep my mind clear, and it made me more attentive to my health. It made me feel not only less anxious but also productive, which was a big problem when I was depressed. I think that because I was able to do it every morning as a part of a routine I proved to myself I was able to do other things too. At the end of the day yoga didn't solely help me out of my depression, but it taught me things that helped me help myself.

Doctors recommended it as a way of lowering my blood sugar as well as gently exercising my leg to get back to normal.

Yoga changed my life. Thank you Covid lockdowns. Had nothing to do , nothing day in day out. One day I decided to try yoga and it changed my perspective on life. Helped me quit drinking ( 3 years sober now !). I have trained to be a yoga teacher and completed my training last year . I love sharing my healing journey with my clients and encouraging people to enjoy their life more, become more mindful , become fitter and healthier and also help them to let go of things that do not serve them. Namaste

Like many others here I began taking meditation and yoga seriously during the quarantine. As I practiced every day I got better at controlling my mind, delving deeper into my consciousness unlocked some kind of blissful state of calm. What I observed was an astonishing decrease in my anxiety and depression, it was miraculous. I can now control negative thoughts with ease and bring myself back into the present moment. I can't encourage you enough to give it a try and stick with it!!

@shimmeringreflection Рік тому
Thanks for giving a perfectly clear definition of yoga right at the beginning of the video. It's critical that all practitioners understand that that is the point of continuous movement with the breath as the priority. The effect is thought stops. If you do this well, you will eventually see chakras as the end of your workout which is evidence you have reached an advanced level of 'yoking the mind'. These visions only come to the fore when your mind has been silenced. Namaste 🙏

Psychologically as for me, i feel this comunication between my mind and body, i start to feel my body, i feel more alive. And as you breathe deeply you let go the tension of everydays stress that caughts up in muscles. I can be deeply in some situation, overthinking it again and again. But once i do these excercises-this shaky state of mind just goes away. You know like being distracted and thorn apart into small little peaces, flowing in negative energy, than you take like 30 minutes on mat, and all shakiness is gone, you feel centered and all peaces stick together. I looove it. Best stress reliever.

Started doing Yoga during lockdown and because I'd developed bursitis in my shoulder and lifting weights agitated it. Found the Breathe and Flow channel and now I do it every day. My strength and flexibility are improving but I still go to the gym a couple times a week for strength training. I will say that my lower back pain, ankle pain and shoulder pain seem to respond really well to daily stretching and building strength gently in those areas. I love it and it's a huge part of my daily life now.

I am really unpleasantly surprised that there hasn't been enough adequate research into yoga. There definitely has to be. You can ask anyone who regularly practices it and I'm sure almost all will vouch for its benefits. It's been incredibly helpful for my anxiety, which is barely a problem to me now. It can be hard for some to make yoga a routine, as it has been for me, but it's always something that I can fall back into if I'm stressed or anxious and I feel better in no time. Thanks for talking about this TED-Ed. It really is one of India's greatest exports to the world and the more research that is done into it by people all over, the more it can be understood and refined if need be.

Yoga is really helpful in regulation of weight, atleast it was the case for me. I was slightly overweight in my 1st year of college , so i started practicing Yoga with my mother , who is strict practioner of Yoga and pranayam , for about 9-10 months and it was amazing. The results were extremely positive. My hairfall reduced. My weight is perfect for my height now.( I started fasting once a week too) Lastly , I feel less anxious. So yea Yoga literally works. 😊

I've implemented yoga to my workout routine for two years now and what I've noticed is that i don't feel soreness, stiffness or bulkiness as I used to due to my regular HIIT workout routine. Yoga has helped me to be more resistant, elastic and efficient when lifting weights, paying attention to my breathing and the importance of always engage my core. I have scoliosis and constantly used to present lower back pain but ever since started implementing yoga, this pain is in the past. I even started to straighten my spine! (just a little bit tho, but is amazing) As for mental health, I could say I'm less irritable and feel relaxed throughout the day.

yoga saved my life, or at least made it worth living again. It has drastically changed my physical and mental state in such a short period of time that its my personal miracle. I went from weak, lazy, angry, entitled, addicted and depressed with no self esteem to healthy, strong, motivated, grateful, in recovery and I am actually really happy again. I just stumbled on it drunk one night while abusing alexa since i had driven away all humans. I asked what are you even good for? Well she showed me a yoga class to help sleep and i tried it and slept, even though I had insomnia at the time. It was enough to convince me to keep going and the farther I go and learn more, well it turned my life around! Namaste and may everyone find their path to inner peace and joy!
