Yoga for Anxiety: Yoga for Emotional Healing, Yoga with Melissa 396

This hatha yoga class for anxiety explores the emotion that affects affects 18 % of adults in the US, approximately 40 million adults between the ages of 18-54. The experience of anxiety results in hormonal imbalances in our bodies as our adrenal glands increase the secretion of adrenaline and cortisol in our bodies. Adrenaline and cortisol are hormones release in response to fear and stress by the medulla of the adrenal glands and in some neurons of the central nervous system.

Research has shown that yoga is superior to other forms of exercise in terms of lowering cortisol than other types of physical movement. A research study on African dance and yoga for example actually showed higher levels of cortisol after the dance than before compared to yoga where the levels were reduced. In another research study with specific yoga poses, researchers measured the cortisol levels before and after yoga classes and discovered significant decreases after yoga class.

This hatha yoga class chooses several calming yoga poses to nourish your adrenals, lower cortisol levels in your body, lower adrenaline levels in your body and calm your nervous system. In this hatha yoga class we will place our attention with the sensations in our bodies instead of wearing ourselves out with relentless thinking. By connecting with our bodies we will find stillness and calm. Yoga offers us a way to connect with the earth, to ground, release all that nervous tension into the earth and connect with a sense of safety. Restoring your body through yoga will help to recover a sense of equilibrium.
