I believe that yoga is very good for your mood, body and spirit. Yoga can take away pain and stress. I used to have bad menstrual cramps and my mother showed me how to do a yoga stance that releives the pains and cramps. Yoga realligned the body and puts things back in its correct place. It really does work and I always feel better.

It can be a beneficial form of exercise but the BMA caution that some positions can be harmful to your back all the best urban

yoga is just 1 example. there are a lot of ways anyway! well i think no matter how u manage ur life, it still depends on how u "positively response". it's a matter of how u see things & how u let or not let it affect u! 1 common denominator would be.. --- up 2 u! (;
