Yoga and Health is your website for information and education about how Yoga can help you improve your health.
Yoga and Health is a nonprofit organization and our mission is to:
Improve the health of individuals, families, groups and the community by providing donation based community yoga and health education in an environment of learning that is conducive to a multicultural population.
Given the increasing number of people living with chronic stress and preventable chronic illness, the need for a comprehensive lifestyle modification program has never been greater. Classical Yoga provides the theory and practice. Properly designed and facilitated group Yoga therapy classes provide individuals with renewed optimism and initiate their personal inquiry into how they can support their own healing process. Following the path of Yoga allows one to achieve optimal physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well being.
Yoga can be used as a complementary practice and not as a substitute for health care.
Please communicate your intention to begin a yoga practice with your health care provider.
