The age-old set of exercises known in the west as "yoga"
offers a significant variety of proven health benefits. It increases
the efficiency of the heart and slows the respiratory rate, improves
fitness, lowers blood pressure, promotes relaxation, reduces stress
and allays anxiety. It also serves to improve coordination, posture,
flexibility, range of motion, concentration, sleep and digestion.
It can also be used as supplementary therapy for conditions as diverse
as cancer, diabetes, arthritis, asthma, migraine etc., and help to
combat addictions such as smoking. It is not, in itself, a cure for
any medical ailment. But as part of the well-known Dean Ornish program
of diet and exercise, it has contributed to the reversal of heart
disease.
Regular Yoga and Meditation sessions in the morning hours are conducted
at ANHC.

What treatment Hopes to accomplish?
Although the yoga we know today is practiced mainly for its health
benefits, it is rooted in Hindu religious principles some 5,000 years
old. Derived from the Sanskrit word for "union", the term
yoga refers to far more than exercise. In fact, it encompasses a variety
of disciplines designed to ultimately bring its practitioners closer
to God. Dynana yoga for instance, seeks reunion through meditation,
while Jnana yoga entails the study of scriptures and Karma
yoga calls for selfless service to God and mankind.
The exercises we now call simply "yoga" are actually
Hatha yoga, a discipline intended to prepare the body for
the pursuit of union with the divine while raising the practitioners
awareness of creation to a higher, keener state. Through controlled
breathing, prescribed postures (called asanas), and meditation,
hatha yoga seeks to enhance prana, or life force, that resides
in the body and achieve a state of balance and harmony between body
and mind. Each of these three disciplines contributes to the search
for union in its own way.
Breathing: The life force prana is believed
to enter the body through the breath, and much of hatha yoga is
concerned with helping you to control your breathing properly. Shallow,
hurried breathing is believed to inhibit the life force, and affect
mind and body adversely. Deep, slow breathing is encouraged.
Postures: Some yoga postures are intended to
stretch and strengthen muscles, other to improve posture and work
the skeletal system, while others aim to compress and relax the
organs and nerves. The underlying purpose is to perfect the body,
making it a worthy host for the soul.
Meditation: Meditation supplements and reinforces
the disciplines of hatha yoga, focusing the mind and relaxing the
body. Closely linked with focused breathing, it aims to produce
a quiet, calm frame of mind. Many people find that it reduces stress
and increases energy. The interplay of this and other two facets
of hatha yoga, and the quiet, considered repetition of each, is
considered key to achieving yoga's benefits.
Despite its use of physical exercises, yoga is perhaps most closely
related to the mind-body family of therapies, which includes meditation
and biofeedback. Research shows that, like other mind-body practice,
yoga produces measurable physiological changes in the body, including
a decrease in the respiratory rate and blood pressure, and an alteration
in brain-wave activity reflecting increased relaxation. Yoga has
been shown to reduce stress and anxiety, both immediately and over
time, and is often recommended to relieve the pain and anxiety of
chronic illness. When practiced regularly, it promotes relaxation
and enhances the sense of well-being. It also improves physical
fitness and circulation and some advocates say it improves memory.
When combined with a low-fat diet and moderate aerobic exercise,
it has been found to reverse the build-up of plague in the coronary
arteries - and the most practiced, the greater the improvement.
Although yoga's effects are unquestionable, scientists still don't
know exactly how it produces them. Some speculate that, like other
mind-body therapies, it works largely by relieving stress. Others
suggest that it promotes the release of endorphins, the brain's natural
pain killers. The office of alternative medicine at the National Institutes
of Health has several studies underway to clarify this matter. In
the meantime, yoga continues to be practiced by some millions of people
around the world.
Who should avoid this therapy?
Avoid yoga completely if you've had a recent back injury or
surgery. Check with your doctor first it you have arthritis, a slipped
disk, heart disease, or high blood pressure. (Although yoga tends
to relieve high blood pressure, certain postures must be avoided.
Be sure to alert your instructor to the problem if you decide to
proceed).
Although some postures are not recommended during pregnancy, special
classes are available for expectant mothers. Some experts also warn
against strenuous postures during menstruation, and when you are
ill with cold or infection.
