Yoga has positions that act upon the various joints of the body including those joints that are never really on the ‘radar screen’ let alone exercised. Surprisingly it has been found that the body which may have been quite rigid starts experiencing a remarkable flexibility in even those parts which have not been consciously work upon. Why? It is here that the remarkable research behind yoga positions proves its mettle. Seemingly unrelated “non strenuous” yoga positions act upon certain parts of the body in an interrelated manner. When done together, they work in harmony to create a situation where flexibility is attained relatively easily. Yoga is perhaps the only form of activity which massages all the internal glands and organs of the body in a thorough manner. By gently stretching muscles and joints as well as massaging the various organs, yoga ensures the optimum blood supply to various parts of the body. Muscles that have become flaccid, weak or slothy are stimulated repeatedly to shed excess flab and flaccidity.
