How does healing take place in our body?
When you have a scratch or a wound somewhere on the body, what happens? You apply some ointment to it and slowly that wound heals. To support body for such healing we protect the wound by applying an ointment or a bandage . If we do not protect it from outside infections, the healing will be delayed.
Similarly, if a hand or leg bone gets fractured, what does Doctor do? He ties plaster placing those broken bones together for 3-4 weeks and during that period those bones get joined.
Our body heals wound by producing new cells of skin. It heals fracture by generating new bone cells. There is no laboratory which have capability to generate such cells of skin, bone or blood artificially. Our body on its own produces them to repair the damage. This is body's magical healing power.
In our daily routine a lot of wear and tear undertakes in the body. Thousands of cells get broken or destroyed within the body, in different organs and on the top layer of the skin. Body keeps on repairing and producing new cells continuously. We need to support this healing just by not interfering the process and by keeping ourselves physically and mentally fit.

- Asanas when practiced with proper breathing it gives very soothing effect to the nerves, calms mind, balances hormonal system.

acceptance and gratitude to experience healing. The desperate need to
see the benefits from Yoga right away could make you miss the real point
of it.
