Yoga and Anti-Aging: How Yoga Helps Us Delay Aging?

They might seem crook, yeah, I’m talking about the yoga poses but they can make things straight in our life.

Yes, you read it right. Yoga has two fundamental working principles strength and relaxation. First one is based on the physical moves which build the strength of the muscles. It slows age-related muscle loss (Sarcopenia) when we head towards our 50s and 60s. Another principle works on the breath control in meditative part of yoga. Meditation helps relieve stress, tension and anxiety. So, focusing on breath slows aging at cellular levels of our body. Now we can say yoga helps to slow down the aging process and sometimes it reverses the process especially when it comes to muscle loss.

Practicing yoga on a regular basis along with a healthy diet which includes some exclusive anti aging superfoods definitely slows aging by building strength and calming your mind. It also improves the posture and sets your balance right.

Some of the anti-aging benefits of yoga are:

Producing Anti-aging Hormone in the Brain:

Mediation is an important yoga pose. Several studies have confirmed that deep meditation boosts production of critical anti-aging hormones linked to enhanced wellbeing, increased longevity, and stress. These hormones are cortisol, melatonin and DHEA.

Giving a Lean, Flexible Body:

One of the visible benefits of yoga includes a lean and flexible body. Our bodies stiffen with age and make them more prone to aches, pains, fatigue, injury, and more. But we can prevent all of this with a regular yoga practice. It allows our body to stretch, move, and lengthen out the spine, giving us a younger, limber, flexible body.

Promoting Retention of Muscle Mass:

It is natural to lose muscle mass with age. However, with a regular yoga practice, we will get anti-aging benefits by curating the body to retain the muscle mass. A study has revealed that yogis showed a lower rate of protein synthesis and breakdown, which is required for efficient muscle mass maintenance.

Relieving Stress:

We all feel stressed out and drained which is common and natural. Chronic stress can accelerate the aging process. Yoga can help reduce stress because it promotes relaxation. This anti-aging practice has a calming effect on the body and allows our minds to return to being light, something that can now be achieved at any age.
