It Seriously Boosts Your Brain
Ever have those days when you're so mentally fried that you can't form a sentence? Yep, us too. Well, a recent study published in the Journal of Gerontology shows that consistently practicing yoga can help older adults boost performance on cognitive tasks and improved memory. Participants in the study practiced Hatha yoga three times a week for three weeks and showed more improvement in these areas than the participants who didn't get their yoga on. More brainpower later in life? Seems like a good reason to unleash your inner yogi starting now!
