Celebrate Yoga Month
Have you ever heard of dog down? Or baby happy? Some of you may know these yoga poses. If you are not familiar with these terms, do not worry, September is National Yoga Month! Yoga was taken from Sanskrit, an ancient Indian text. It is said that the practice of yoga is Sanskrit in action.
designated by the Department of Health and Human Resources in 08, Yoga Month helps to encourage people to get involved in yoga and lead a healthier life. Not only is yoga good for your body, it also promotes harmony in the lives of those who participate. Yoga helps your body and mind and can help reduce the negative effects of diseases such as diabetes, chronic back pain, and depression, among many other benefits.
Yoga can also reduce stress in the workplace. Entering a practice of meditation can help you relax, open your mind and be more productive during your work day. Using a relaxation technique such as meditation or yoga can help separate your work life from your home life
