Diseases as big as cancers, and as small as common cold, can be treated by Yoga. Common problems such as hair fall, migraine, eye defects etc. can easily be cured with the help of Yoga. Yoga is also effective in taking care of behavioral addictions as it triggers the same rush of feel-good dopamine to the brain as do drugs or alcohol.



Before starting on a Yoga regime, it is important that the person builds up stamina for the exercises. Even though Yoga is a safe and non-aerobic form of exercise, it is not risks-free.

The exercise time should be limited and one should stop if there is pain or discomfort. Proper clothing and setting makes the exercise experience better. When done properly, Yoga can bring you innumerable benefits.
