Yoga is a very ancient practice known to relieve stress and anxiety, it can improve breathing and sleep, the digestive system, your focus, and concentration. It can give you confidence and improve your self-esteem and general wellbeing.

The movements will be simple, aiming to release tension from your neck, shoulders, and lower back from the long hours of sitting. It will work on opening and lifting the chest to create more space for the lungs with a focus on the breath. The breath is primary in yoga and directly affects the Vagus nerve functions responsible for the autonomic nervous system. It has a main role in the parasympathetic nervous system which controls the digestive tract, respiration, and heart rate functioning.
