Importance of Yoga in Improving our Circulatory System

In todays post let us understand What is the Importance of Yoga in Improving our Circulatory System ?

To begin with let’s first understand the function of this system. Everyone is aware of the importance of the circulatory system and role played by it in our life. It is also known as the cardio vascular system and it comprises of the heart and the blood vessels. 

Heart pumps the blood which is carried to the different parts of our body by the blood vessels. The circulatory system comprises of two parts the blood system and the lymphatic system. 

The lymphatic system ensures that all the waste from the circulatory system is removed.

The blood system is helped by the heart which pumps the blood but the lymphatic system doesn’t have any organ which will help in flushing out the waste, the entire onus lies on the muscles which fulfils its task by the contraction and expansion

This is where yoga comes into play. The nutrients and oxygen are also transported to the different organs via the blood. Heart comprises of four chambers, the two auricles and two ventricles. Each of this auricle and ventricle has different roles to perform.

The right auricle collects the de-oxygenated blood and pumps it to the right ventricle which sent it to the lungs so that it becomes mixed with oxygen and gets oxygenated; from there it is brought back to the left auricle and pumped into the left ventricle and from there the arteries carry it to different parts of the body.

These arteries are thick walled and the main artery is referred to as aorta. The arteries branch into sub arteries which divide into thin walled capillaries.

The capillaries are the one which supply the oxy gen and nutrients to all the organs and in turn collect all the toxic waste from these organs and they are carried back to the heart through veins and the entire process is repeated.

When the blood is carried by the veins there is a fear of blood flowing back because of less pressure, hence the veins are provided with valves. Yoga is an ancient form of exercise which ensures our overall well being. Itb looks into our mental as well as our physical development. 

It comprises of breathing exercises accompanied by various postures which not only helps the heart to pump effectively but also it helps in strengthening the muscles. These exercises have been existing from time immemorial and it has stood the test of time. 

Over the years it has evolved according to the requirement of that particular generation. In yoga there are many postures and position which will enable you to make your muscles stronger so that it can function very efficiently in removing the waste from the blood, thus making sure that your body is healthy.

This in turn augments your immune system ensuring that you are able to with stand all the infections raiding your body. 

Yoga is a sure short way to healthy living; it improves your circulatory system by ensuring that the heart pumps the blood to all parts of the body efficiently and the muscles expand and contract effectively so as to enable the removal of all waste from the blood.

The breathing exercises also ensure that the intake of oxygen is very good and it is transported to all the organs which are able to function very efficiently. 

That is the main reason why pre-natal yoga is suggested to the pregnant ladies so that they are able to reap all the benefits. Without doubt one can say yoga plays a very important role in our circulatory system.

Sudarshan kriya yoga: Breathing for health

Breathing techniques are regularly recommended for relaxation,stress management, control of psychophysiological states, and to improve organ function. Yogic breathing, defined as a manipulation of breath movement, has been shown to positively affect immune function, autonomic nervous system imbalances, and psychological or stress-related disorders. The aim of this study was to assess and provide a comprehensive review of the physiological mechanisms, the mind-body connection, and the benefits of Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY) in a wide range of clinical conditions. Various online databases searched were Medline, Psychinfo, EMBASE, and Google Scholar. 

All the results were carefully screened and articles on SKY were selected. The references from these articles were checked to find any other potentially relevant articles. SKY, a unique yogic breathing practice, involves several types of cyclical breathing patterns, ranging from slow and calming to rapid and stimulating. There is mounting evidence to suggest that SKY can be a beneficial, low-risk, low-cost adjunct to the treatment of stress, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, stress-related medical illnesses, substance abuse, and rehabilitation of criminal offenders.
