4. Overall Quality of Life is Improved
As yoga focuses on health at the intersection of mind, body, and spirit, studies have found that yoga practitioners want to be healthier overall and take steps to achieve it. Those who do yoga frequently report feeling more positive about their bodies and mental health outlooks.
They also tend to think more clearly, be more flexible and are fitter and stronger. Importantly, they actively seek to improve in these quadrants of their lives beyond the yoga studio as well.
In general, studies have therefore found that those who do yoga lead far more active and healthy lives in general, often taking up other sports or physical exercises too. Yoga involves nurturing your spirit and those of others and being in touch with the Divine Source, as well as protecting what the Divine has created. It’s hardly surprising then that those doing yoga are more likely to go ‘green’ both in diet and lifestyle and to move towards living more sustainably.
