Yoga for Asthma

Asthma is a chronic disease in which your airways to lungs become narrow and inflamed, making inhaling and exhaling harder for you. Around 29 million Americans are affected by asthma. Common symptoms of asthma include wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness. Taking sinus or chest X-ray, lung function tests will decide type of asthma you have. So to cure asthma in primary stage it is necessary to do yoga because exercises like pranayama (inhaling-exhaling practice) will improve your efficiency to breathe.

Note :   Every yoga video is in English and starts with Sanskrit sholka(poems). If you are not familiar with this Sanskrit language just forward the video for 1 to 2 minutes and follow the instructions to do yoga.

    

People generally take treatment for asthma from doctor who is expert in immune system. Asthma patient are not generally allowed to work hard because it may lead to asthma episode. Medicines prescribed by doctor only give temporary relief for a day or a week and your life is always dependent on medicines or inhalers.
