Your muscles become stronger and are able to help you go about your duties in your family or at work. The increase in strength from regularly practicing yoga will also improve bone density, preserve lean muscle mass, stabilize the joints, and improve the resting metabolic rate. With that in mind, it is important to highlight that these benefits can also reduce the risk of diseases such as osteoporosis.

Stress often takes away one’s sleep. You turn from side to side when your mind is crowded. Experts say that sleep is a weapon, because it relaxes your body as a whole. This means that if you cannot get it then you are missing an essential requirement in life. With yoga, you get rid of all that stressing mental activity that is likely to keep you from sleeping. Relaxed, you are able to get the needed level of sleep at night.

Some of the yoga poses that will help you to relax and get ready for sleep include the lying Butterfly pose, the corpse pose, and legs up the wall. Try these three yoga poses to improve your quality of sleep.
