Yoga to boost immunity.
A weakened or compromised immune system can lead to chronic infections, inflammation, autoimmune issues, and even cancer. Luckily, you can boost immunity when you practice yoga. Bhujangasana, Matsyasana, Adho mukha svanasana, Uttanasana, and Dhanurasana help to promote good blood flow. These asanas stimulate the thymus gland that has a crucial role in immune function. Do you know that 80% of your immune system is located in the folds of your digestive tract? Belly breathing helps to strengthen the digestive system that leads to a sound immune system. According to a study by the Norwegian University of Science & Technology, holding your breath can significantly increase white blood cells to help fight illness.
