Yoga, Cardiovascular health, Meditation, Blood flow, Physical postures, Cardiovascular disease prevention, Cardiovascular risk factors, Health strategies integrationAbstract
Yoga, an ancient practice integrating physical postures, breathing techniques, and meditation, has gained widespread recognition for its numerous health benefits. This paper explores the impact of yoga on blood flow and circulation, emphasizing its role in enhancing cardiovascular health. By reviewing existing literature and research, we highlighted the physiological mechanisms through which yoga improves circulation, reduces blood pressure, enhances heart function, reduces inflammation, and benefits endothelial function. We have also discussed specific yoga practices that contribute to these improvements, offering insights into the integration of yoga into cardiovascular health strategies.
