This review highlights yoga as an effective strategy for managing stress and improving overall well-being. By combining physical postures, breathing exercises, and meditation, yoga helps regulate the autonomic nervous system, fostering relaxation and reducing the physical and mental effects of stress. Benefits include better muscle strength, flexibility, and oxygen uptake, along with improved emotional balance and resilience. Yoga practices address stress-related health risks, such as cardiovascular diseases, while promoting a calm and focused mind, enhancing brain function and emotional stability.
Incorporate yoga into your routine to manage stress and improve mental and physical health. Start with a balanced practice including asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing techniques), and meditation for 20–30 minutes daily. Regular practice promotes relaxation, resilience, and better emotional balance. While accessible to most, beginners should consider guided sessions for proper technique. Yoga is a complementary tool, not a replacement for medical treatments.
