FACTS:

"What does the evidence show as far as yoga's efficacy? Our studies show that yoga is equally as beneficial - or more beneficial - than the best possible medications in alleviating traumatic stress symptoms. In the studies we did involving neuroimaging of the brain before and after regular yoga practice, we were able to show that the areas of the brain involving self-awareness get activated by doing yoga, and those are the areas that get locked out by trauma and that are needed in order to heal." -Dr Bessel van der Kolk

"Trauma is not what happens to you, it's what happens inside you as a result of what happened to you." -Gabor Mate

"The issues are in the tissues. "

- Bessel van der Kolk

With it's emphasis on breathing practices and meditation - both of which help calm and center the mind - it's hardly surprising that yoga also brings mental benefits, such as reduced anxiety and depression. What may be more surprising is that it actually makes your brain work better.

Think of it as weightlifting for the brain. - Harvard Health Publishing
