In studies it was found that starting at age 40, in women, our bellies start to expand even if we don’t change our diet or exercise. Doing just 30 minutes of simple yoga stretches a day can halt “middle age spread”.
In a study done by the University of Washington it was found that regular yoga practice is associated with “mindful eating” in which you naturally savor every mouthful instead of eating quickly. People who eat mindfully are proven to be less likely to overindulge or experience in between-meal cravings.
Another good reason to practice every day!
