How does anusara yoga affect one's mental health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Positively: Physical (hatha) yoga movements that combine muscle lengthening with stretching and static muscle contraction, done consistently and with attention to breath control, have a remedial effect on the physiology and create mental calmness.
