Yoga Fights Stress

A research in England shows that more than 30 percent of women are not happy with their lives and they do not find the meaning of it. The lack of meaning can cause crises, conflicts, lack of understanding with others, not much qualification skills, lack of ideals, difficulties when dealing with every problem on the way to success, lack of philanthropic feelings and aspiration for beauty, egoism, avidity and greediness, limiting the freedom, sexual and intellectual degradation, destructiveness, alcoholism and drug evil. We can overcome the art of living, only on condition we understand that it is subordinate to the same laws, which are functioning in nature, but are already known from people and they are applying them. When we have an optimistic attitude for life we are turning ourselves into original and creative people. This leads to a feeling of satisfaction and makes a balance between the human being, nature and society. Once we manage to do that, we will be much calmer and happier and the nature and society will reveal its secrets and treasures.

American research shows that yoga is a great tool used to fight stress. Scientists compared yoga exercises with the usual routine walking. It was determined that people, who practice yoga exercises are in good spirits and they are not that anxious. This research was examining 19 people, that went for this program connected with yoga exercises and other 15 people, who went into the program connected with daily walking. The participants of the two groups were taking 1 hour daily in a period of 12 weeks for their own program and they have been through several tests that were examining their anxiousness and their moods. Except for this the scientists used nuclear magnetic resonance to examine the levels of the chemical substances and the gamma acids in our brains. This is a neurotransmitter which is relaxing the brain activity, decreasing the anxiety and causes the state of peace. The participants, who were doing yoga exercises, demonstrated a better temper and less anxiety in comparison with the other group, who were walking one hour a day. Yoga exercises caused the increasing of the levels of this acid, which is connecting with the higher spirits and the happiness.
