How Asthma Affects

Chronic asthma is a lung illness that produces periodic episodes of wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and coughing. It narrows and irritates the airways by contraction of the smooth muscle in the bronchioles. In most individuals, there is a sudden onset of cold symptoms, such as nasal congestion and sneezing. As the attack ensues, there is an increasing insufficiency of air, causing distress and anxiety where the individual loses control of their breathing process. Exhalation demands a continuous effort as thick mucous builds up pressure in the lungs. It also leads to decreased levels of oxygen in the body. Yoga for asthma leads to rebalance and healing of the body and mind.

How Yoga Helps In Asthma

Hath yoga is a physical approach that links the mind and body through the breath, enabling them to work cohesively, which aids in the management of asthma. Numerous studies have demonstrated that yoga treatment significantly improved the severity and duration of episodes, the number of attacks per week, and the need for medication. 

The combined effects of pranayama and yoga asana make it one of the best yoga practices for asthma and to prevent acute asthma attacks. Persistent practice will lead to increased energy and clearing up of clogged pranic energy.
