Could Yoga have all the answers to anxiety? Why is it that anxiety, stress, and unhappiness take over so many people’s lives? If you listen to a “doubting Thomas,” nothing works, but if you read below, you will see some solutions.

Under normal conditions, the natural breathing pattern is slow and regulated. However, during periods of stress, the body tightens the muscles and breathing becomes shallow. It is common to hold your breath when you are stressed.
