Guest guest Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Becoming a yoga woman is not about shopping for yoga apparels for women; it is about making a decision to do something just for yourself. As singer Helen Reddy describes the role of yoga in her life, Yoga gives me the realization that I can not only be an active 75-year old woman, but still a meaningful one. For many busy women, the hour they spend at their fitness center practicing yoga is exclusively their time, a break from the demands of being career women, wives, and mothers. Because the exercise is low impact, women can do other things after a yoga session without having to be worried about being hot and sweaty. Women can take up yoga at any age and without being in top physical condition. It is a relaxing experience, not an exhausting one and carries with it an overall sense of well being. The psychological benefits of the practice are as marked as the physical changes. Some women have found that a regular yoga routine will even out their periods and alleviate the anxiety and depression common at " that time of the month. " Also, by strengthening the abdominal muscles, yoga has been found to decrease painful cramping.
