Yoga for Strengthening Immunity helps activate the body's defense system by engaging the nervous, muscular, and respiratory systems. Movement, inverted poses, and breathing exercises (pranayama) stimulate the lymphatic system, improving lymph circulation and enhancing the body's ability to fight external influences.
Lymph nodes, including those in the spleen, play a crucial role in immune protection. Additionally, asanas strengthen bones by exerting mechanical pressure through muscles and ligaments, which positively affects the red bone marrow—an essential component of the immune system.
Short sessions help gently awaken and support the body's defenses, while longer practices allow for deeper engagement and enhanced immune function. With regular practice, yoga promotes resilience and overall well-being.
