People who strive for improved heart health typically engage in aerobic exercise such as running, biking or walking.  Can the addition of yoga with its stretching exercises, controlled breathing and relaxation techniques also keep the heart in shape?

This article published by Best Health Magazine explores that very issue.  The author dissects how yoga improves a person’s ability to manage blood pressure, inflammation and other health factors that contribute to heart disease.

I have partnered with Kelly Davis who runs a social group called DC Fitness, Empowerment and Support to host a unique event on Thursday, January 8 at 6 PM in Chevy Chase, Maryland.  Entitled New Year, New You: Yoga & Self Hypnosis for Exceptional Wellness, Health & Living, it combines the physical and spiritual well-being of yoga with the positive visualization process.

The event is metro accessible and best of all there is absolutely no cost to attend.  All you need to do is join this meet-up group and register to attend.
