Abstract
Yoga has an important role in modern medicine. It has a greater impact on reduction of stress and stress related disorders. Stress affects an individual's memory and concentration. Yoga developed thousands of years ago and it is a form of mind-body exercises which improves muscle strength, flexibility, and blood circulation and oxygen uptake as well as hormone functions. Meditation helps to stabilize the autonomic nervous system with a tendency towards parasympathetic dominance. The most prominent and recognizable form of yoga is hatha yoga. It is a branch of yoga that concentrates on physical health and mental well-being. It includes body postures (asana), breathing techniques (pranayama) and meditation.It helps in developing sound physical body as well as a calm and peaceful mind. Mrs. S. Kalaivani | Dr. (Mrs) D.
