Yoga for Senior Citizens
As we age, our body's regenerative capacity deteriorates. This leads to various health ailments, body aches, reduced immunity and other issues. Our senior citizens' yoga helps improve body balance and flexibility. It involves gentle stretching and breathing exercises to help ageing people gain flexibility and restore balance.
Senior citizen yoga involves different postures or asanas that strengthen the body and bring mental peace. The postures also help in improving blood circulation and preventing slouching. It also promotes sleep and reduces stress levels giving senior citizens a new boost of energy. These yoga postures also improve the flexibility of the spine and reduce the stiffness of muscles and joints.
Our senior citizen yoga promotes blood flow that helps the body access optimum amounts of oxygen. This strengthens bones, aids digestion and fights health issues. It also helps in regulating blood pressure, a common problem among senior citizens.
