| book description |
This new book provides a holistic insight into the perennial bliss of practicing yoga on body, mind, and spirit. It highlights ways to achieve optimum mental and spiritual health. Collectively, it emphasizes how physical, mental, spiritual, and social health can be improvised by practicing yoga diligently. The book highlights the simple fact that there is more to yoga than just the poses. It also provides a glimpse of the beneficial effects of yoga for improvising certain medical conditions and for, in general, its ability to improve quality of life. Each chapter of the book provides a succinct introduction to the benefits of yoga in different spheres. The book begins with exploring the benefits of practicing yoga on social life and humanity, discussing the impact of yoga on the socioemotional development and focusing on notions of happiness. The book highlights certain yogic postures that help to sustainable health and enhance the level of happiness in life. Additionally, the book looks at improving quality of life by practicing yoga for female and male adolescents via yoga-cultivated attentiveness pedagogy interventions. The comparison between yoga practitioners and nonpractitioners brings a strong contrast in the dimensions of happiness level, mental balance, stress management, and medical conditions. Chapters look at the benefits of yoga and mindfulness practices for specific health issues, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome and diabetes. It also considers the beneficial impact of yoga, meditation practices, and ayurvedic herbs on the improvement in the brain power of children and for arresting cognitive impairment and promoting well-being among institutionalized seniors. This book presents the multiple benefits of practicing yoga for all age groups. This book goes beyond the physical benefits of yoga and inspires the exploration of different dimensions of yoga, offering timeless lessons, comparisons, and deep analysis.
