I recently did an interview for Sleep Compass. I was asked how yoga therapy can help with the anxiety of living with varied illnesses. I would like to share my answer to that very important question:
“The most concrete answer I can use for this question is that of cancer. Yoga therapy is not chemotherapy. Yoga therapy will not actually treat the tumor. Yoga therapy will give the individual who is dealing with the tumor the tools to address the symptoms of the tumor, or the side affects of the treatment for the tumor. Yoga therapy will also give tools to the individual to address other conditions that occur with chronic illness, such as anxiety.
What is healthy aging?
Getting older is a natural part of life. How you will feel as you get older depends on many things, including what health problems run in your family and the choices you make. If you take good care of your body and learn positive ways to deal with stress now, you can slow down or even prevent problems that often come with getting older.
It’s never too early or too late to change bad habits and start good ones. No matter when you start, a healthy lifestyle can make a difference in how you feel and what you can do.
An addiction is a recurring compulsion to engage in some specific activity, despite harmful consequences to the individual’s health, mental state or social life. The term is often reserved for drug, alcohol and nicotine addictions but is also applied to other compulsions such as compulsive overeating.
