Abstract
The beneficial effects of yoga has gained the attention of modern medical
men over the last 30 years. Infact the credit goes to frustrated subjects
suffering from many chronic ailments who were advised to go on taking
increasing doses of medications to keep the disease under "control". They
took to alternative systems of managing their illness much against the
advice of their doctors and demonstrated usefulness of yogic practices by
strengthening the self healing mechanisms. A good amount of scientifically
validated data [Enclosure 1] is now available to show the beneficial
effects of yoga in many common problems as asthma, hypertension.
These beneficial effects can be traced to the role of yoga in reducing,
preventing or correcting the severity of stress responses, because
exaggerated physiological stress responses seem to be the root cause of
most of these chronic ailments.
