So you’ve probably heard a little about Yoga and wondered what it’s all about; Or probably have a few preconceptions.

The human body is a very complex structure where a simple change in body function can have a long-lasting impact. From marinating the blood pressure to maintaining oxygen and sugar level and temperature almost everything is connected. In case you change one thing, everything else loses its focus and you will end up seeing your health decline. To make sure the body maintains all the bodily functions and it has a very strong defense, the body has a strong defense system. This defense system helps in fighting against all the external elements especially bacteria, viruses, and germs. This strong defense system is commonly known as the immune system. The significance of the immune system cannot be denied because if immunity is somehow compromised, the body becomes fragile. Eventually, you will see that your body will get affected even by the slightest change in the external environment.
If you need to know how the immune system works, just think of thousands of soldiers fighting against harmful bacteria and viruses at any given moment. These small soldiers can be seen as white blood cells. These cells are specifically important because they help with defense and ensure that no matter what the external environment is, your body doesn’t accept the change easily. Most people think that daily exercise, a healthy diet, and a little bit of meditation help in boosting immunity. However, it is better to explore how immunity and yoga can be correlated and how they work.
With the help of this article, we will look at some of the best ways you can improve your immunity. We will see if immunity can be improved with the help of yoga and finally we will list down some of the easiest and most effective yoga poses that you can use to improve overall immunity.
How Yoga Impacts Our Body?
Yoga is a combination of exercise and mediation so you will benefit from it completely. You will soon notice an improvement in your physical health as well as your psychological health. Yoga means the unification of mind and body. In short, by using yoga you will work to bring your stress level down and this will eventually help you to boost your immunity. When the body has a low level of stress, the stress hormones drop and eventually, this promotes the work of white blood cells making them more active.
Since stress has a direct relation with almost all the body functions including digestion, heartbeat, focus, and I think you will see improvement in them as well. On the contrary, if you stay stressed you will see that your body will not digest the food properly and this will impact your overall health by making you more anxious and lethargic. This is the main reason people who stay depressed end up with low energy and so they sleep for longer hours to seek rest.
Top 5 Yoga Poses To Boost Immunity
Pranayama
This is a simple deep breathing-based yoga pose where your main goal is to take in all the air till your lungs fill up. You need to use one hand and block one of the nostrils. Then with the help of the other nostrils, just suck in all the oxygen. You need to sit with your legs crossed while your shoulders are back and your neck to your spine is straight. Holding in the air is very important because it will help you improve the lungs’ capacity as well.
Fish Pose
This pose is also known as Matsyasana. For this pose, you need to lay down flat on your black. Now, with the help of the weight balance method, you will keep your weight on the extended legs and lift your chest area. As you will lift your chest, your neck will be dangling down and your eyes will be closed. This is a very technical pose and keeping this pose on hold for too long without understanding the technique can strain your shoulder muscles. Make sure you are holding your muscles right and you are not feeling any strain.
Leg against the Wall Pose
This is a very good pose for getting the blood flow to your brain. You need to lay down straight with your legs against the wall. Your body will be making an L shape against the wall. This is a simple pose that requires no technical knowledge. Just hold the pose for at least a few minutes. This is good for stress, eyesight, and memory as well.
Forward Bend
Forward Bend is also called U shape pose. You need to stand right up and then slowly use your hands to bend down. As you get to touch your legs with the help of your head, use your hands to hug your legs tighter. This pose is ideal for people who have chronic stress.
Cobra Pose
Cobra pose is commonly known as Bhujangasana. For this pose, you need to lie down on your stomach and then use your arms and hands to lift the upper body. The focus is to lift it in the form of a wave as your head stays focused towards the sky.
Bottom Line
To sum it all up, it all comes down to the powerful impact yoga has on our bodies. We can all agree that yoga doesn’t just offer a boost to the physical health of our body but also psychological health. Research claims that when people have less stressful conditions around them, they generally have better immunity. This is the same reason kids growing up during the depression, recession and war have a high rate of disease. They usually stay stressed so the body struggles to perform the daily functions. Eventually, when it comes to defending the body against the external environment they fail in the worst way possible. With the help of yoga, you will be helping your mind to stay calm and it will reduce the stress hormone from the body offering a much better overall health as compared to other individuals who stay stressed. Research also claims that although the body can equally defend itself against the physical changes and physical attacks just like it can calm down in stressful conditions. However, when both external environments affect your physical and psychological health, your body starts to struggle and that’s where yoga comes in.

We all know the importance of ‘personal skin care’. The opinion on how-to (for personal skin care) differs from person to person. Some people believe that going to beauty salons every other day is personal skin care. Others believe that personal skin care is just a matter of applying some cream or lotion on your skin, every now and then. Then there are people who think that personal skin care is an event that happens once a month or once a year. Still others busy themselves with ‘personal skin care’ all the time. However, personal skin care is not that complicated and neither is it that expensive (considering how beneficial it is). Personal skin care is following a routine or a procedure for attending to the needs of your skin.
Even before you start with a routine, you need to determine your skin-type (oily, dry, sensitive, normal etc) and select the personal skin care products suitable for it (you might have to experiment with a few personal skin care products). Here is a routine that should work for most people with normal skin.
“Sleep, drink water and treat your skin.” – Georgia Louise
The first thing on personal skin care routine is ‘Cleansing’. The three main ingredients of a cleanser are oil, water and surfactants. Oil and surfactants extract dirt and oil from your skin and water then flushes it out, thus making your skin clean. You might have to try a couple of cleansers before you find the one that suits you the best using luke warm water. However, it is recommended to use soap-free cleansers. Make sure that you don’t over-cleanse your skin because you may end up damaging your skin in the process.
The second thing on the personal skin care routine is exfoliation. Skin follows a natural maintenance process wherein it removes the dead cells and replaces them with new skin cells. Exfoliation is just a way to facilitate the skin in this process. Dead skin cells are not capable of responding to personal skincare products but still consume these products, hence preventing them from reaching the new skin cells. Thus removing dead skin cells is important in order to increase the effectiveness of all personal skin care products. Generally, exfoliation takes it place just after cleansing. As with any personal skin care procedure, it’s important that you understand how much exfoliation you need. It is recommended to exfoliate 3-4 times per week for oily/normal skin and 1-2 times per week for dry/sensitive skin. Exfoliate a couple of times more in hot and humid weather.
“Beautiful skin requires commitment bot a miracle.” Erno Lazlo
Next thing on personal skin care routine is moisturizers. This is one of the most important things in personal skin care. Even people with oily skin need moisturizers. Moisturizers not only seal the moisture in your skin cells, but also attract moisture (from air) whenever needed. Use of too much moisturizer can however clog skin pores and end up harming your skin. The amount of moisturizer needed by your skin will become apparent to you within one week of you using the moisturizer. Also, applying the moisturizer is best when your skin is still damp.
The last thing on personal skin care routine is sunscreen. A lot of moisturizers (day-time creams/moisturisers) come with UV protection – so you can get double benefits from them. Such moisturisers are recommended for all days (irrespective of whether it is sunny or cloudy).
Again, experiment with various personal skin care products and also with the amount you need to apply. What gives you best results is the best personal skin care recipe for you. However, if you have some kind of skin dilemma, it is best to consult your dermatologist before you actually start using any personal skin care products.
Drink a glass of water. Some people say that dehydration can cause cravings.
Eat a fruit. Having a piece of fruit may help satisfy sugar cravings for some people. Bananas, apples, oranges work great.
Avoid artificial sweeteners they trigger cravings.
Eat more protein. Protein is great for satiety, and it may help with cravings as well.
Talk to a friend. Call or meet someone who understands what you’re going through. Explain that you’re going through a craving and ask for a few words of encouragement.
Sleep well. Getting proper, refreshing sleep is important for overall health and may help prevent cravings.
Avoid excess stress. Same as with sleep, avoiding stress can help prevent cravings.
Avoid certain triggers. Try to avoid specific activities or places that give you cravings, such as walking past McDonald’s.
Take a multivitamin. This will help.
Create and carry a list of the reasons you want to eat healthy, as it can be hard to remember such things when you get a craving.
Don’t starve yourself. Try to prevent yourself from becoming too hungry between.
