• Opis:
  Introduction: Yoga is well-regarded for its diverse health benefits, potentially impacting psychiatric, asthma, cardiovascular, autoimmune, and neurological conditions. It is also associated with broader positive effects such as improving quality of life, fitness levels, and psychosocial outcomes for individuals. Hatha yoga, widely practiced and studied worldwide, emphasizes physical postures (asana) and breathing exercises (pranayama), both of which contribute positively to overall mental and physical health. Aim of the study: The aim of this study is to review the benefits of practicing yoga based on the latest scientific research. Both physical benefits, such as improved flexibility, strength, and balance, and psychological benefits, including stress reduction, anxiety relief, and enhanced overall well-being, will be analyzed. This paper aims to demonstrate how regular yoga practice can contribute to an improved quality of life and support the treatment of various health conditions.The mechanisms through which yoga impacts health will also be discussed, and the effectiveness of yoga will be compared with other forms of physical activity and relaxation techniques. Material and methods: We have gathered the available materials and scientific reports, analyzing and summarizing them in a single study. Conclusions: Yoga's diverse health benefits, supported by extensive research, highlight its potential as a valuable therapy for improving overall health and well-being across various medical conditions.
