    BS Accountancy 1-4

    Yoga is all about knowing your own limits and not overdoing it. If you do, you are

    likely to end up with a pulled muscle or something like that. I learned more about limits

    through this, and that it’s still possible to do yoga with an injury. Yoga is a good practice

    if one does in daily life. It helps to live healthy life style and better life. According to

    medical scientists, yoga exercises create a balance between the endocrine and the

    nervous systems, which has a direct influence on all other body systems and organs.

    Therefore yoga acts both as a preventive and curative therapy. The essence of yoga is

    to achieve mental piece, and a relaxed state of living, as well as to enhance

    concentration powers. Maintaining regular yoga exercises have been found to reduce

    diverse ailments like asthma, blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, varicose veins, chronic

    fatigue, heart conditions, and arteriosclerosis and digestive disorders. It enhances the

    inner and outer body and mind strength by connecting both to the nature. It is not a

    physical practice only as it makes a human able to get control over mental, emotional,

    and spiritual thoughts. It can be practiced by the people at any age during childhood,

    teenage, adult or old age. It needs only safe, slow and controlled movements of body

    with controlled breathing.


    Plank

    Begin in the plank position, face down with your forearms and toes on the floor.
    Your elbows are directly under your shoulders and your forearms are facing forward.
    Your head is relaxed and you should be looking at the floor. Hold this position for 10
    seconds.

    Leg High

    Face down with your forearms and toes on the floor. Your elbows are directly
    under your shoulders and your forearms are facing forward and lift your right leg.
    Cobra

    Lie down on the stomach by keeping your legs together. Make a gap of 1-2 feet
    between the legs if somebody has a backache. Put your palms beside your shoulder
    and the head should rest on the ground. With inhaling raise your head up to your navel
    region and try to see the roof. Maintain the position till 10 to 60 seconds with steadily
    inhaling and exhaling. Come to the original position slowly with a deep exhalation.
    Down dog
    Come to your hands and knees with the wrists underneath the shoulders and the
    knees underneath the hips. Curl your toes under and push back through your hands to
    lift your hips and straighten your legs. Spread your fingers and ground down from the
    forearms into the fingertips. Outwardly rotate your upper arms to broaden the
    collarbones
