The
Secret to Losing Weight and Feeling Great
 The
benefits of yoga
are numerous…from weight
loss (click
for information) to greater peace
of mind. Yoga has the ability to transform your life.
There is scientific
proof that yoga works for weight loss.
Many
forms of yoga raise the heart rate into the aerobic range.
But you don’t need to exert yourself to lose weight
with yoga. Some studies show even gentle yoga and breathing
techniques rev up your tired metabolism so you can lose weight.
A
study at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle
linked yoga and weight loss. This study of over 15,000 men
and women showed people who did yoga lost weight while the
control group gained weight.
Another
study presented last year at the America Heart Association
found yoga helped overweight high school students lost weight
while the control group gained weight.
And
the famed Dr. Dean Ornish encourages his patients to practice
yoga to help ensure weight loss. When you practice yoga and
make it part of your lifestyle, you’ll soon discover
its power for weight loss.
It
doesn’t matter how much weight you need to lose or how
many times you’ve tried to lose weight before, yoga
will help you get rid of it in a hurry.
You’ll
feel more energetic and better than you have in years.
No,
you don’t have to be in perfect shape to do yoga. You
don’t even need to be flexible.
Yes,
yoga will help you lose weight, lower your blood pressure,
increase flexibility, strength and add to your overall sense
of being fit.
