Yoga reduces stress—In recent decades, several medical and scientific studies on yoga proved it to be very useful in the treatment of some diseases

Yoga improves your cardiovascular health—The Journal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine published a review of 1,400 studies looking at the overall effects of pranayama. One key takeaway was that yogic breathing can improve the functioning of several systems in the body. The review found that controlling the pace of breathing produced favorable changes in heart rate, stroke capacity, arterial pressure, and contractility of the heart.

Yoga can boost your mental health—A 2017 meta-analysis of 23 interventions looking at the effects of yoga-based treatments on depressive symptoms overwhelmingly concluded that yoga can now be considered an effective alternative treatment for MDD. Both movement-based yoga therapies and breathing-based practices have been shown to significantly improve depressive symptoms.

Yoga reduces anxiety—Numerous studies suggest that yoga asana may be effective as an alternative treatment for anxiety disorders and guided Yoga nidra, which is a body scan/guided meditation, has been shown to conclusively reduce symptoms of anxiety.

Yoga has been known to improve sleep—Yoga has been shown to improve both how quickly people fall asleep and how deeply they stay asleep. This is partly due to the aftereffects of exercise and the mental calming and stress relief provided by yoga specifically.
