Yoga for Stress, Anxiety and Depression

Stress is a leading cause of anxiety and depression and recently levels of stress have increased significantly. One in five of us will currently be suffering from the symptoms of stress: poor concentration, low motivation, tiredness and depression. In addition, one in four of us are likely to suffer from depression at some point during our lives.

Yoga can alleviate depression, anxiety and stress. Yoga for depression and anxiety offers practices (psychological and physical) that will help prevent or reduce stress. MyYoga specialises in yoga for depression and anxiety. Given the epidemic of depression and anxiety in the UK, the NHS cannot cope with the demand for therapies to treat people. MyYoga offers specialised yoga classes for depression, anxiety and stress.
