​Regular yogic practice enhances muscular strength and body flexibility, promotes and improves respiratory and cardiovascular function, promotes recovery from and treatment of addiction, reduces stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, improves sleep patterns, and enhances overall well-being and quality of life.
Sustained yoga practice also leads to important outcomes such as changes in life perspective, self-awareness and an improved sense of energy to live life fully and with genuine enjoyment.

Yoga helps us access our inner resources to teach us about self-awareness, acceptance, compassion, patience, gratitude, forgiveness, humility, love, peace, and joy.
​The 4 basic principles that underlie the teachings and practices of yoga's healing system compliment the 6 key principles of naturopathy that underpin naturopathic nutritional therapy:
-
The human body is a holistic entity comprised of various interrelated dimensions inseparable from one another and the health or illness of any one dimension affects the other dimensions.
-
Individuals and their needs are unique and therefore must be approached in a way that acknowledges this individuality and their practice must be tailored accordingly.
-
Yoga is self-empowering, the student is his or her own healer. Yoga engages the student in the healing process by playing an active role in their journey towards health. Healing comes from within instead of from an outside source and a greater sense of autonomy is achieved.
-
The quality and state of an individuals mind is crucial to healing. When the individual has a positive mind-state healing happens more quickly, whereas if the mind-state is negative, healing may be prolonged.
