How it is possible?

[Iavor]

HI...........!!!!

I'm new to yoga, and its my first time that I'm asking any question about it. My friend told me that yoga helps a person to lose his weight, but I don't know how it is possible? Any comments?

I'll really be thankful for your replies.

Hi,

Yoga asanas stimulate the sluggish glands to increase the hormonal secretions that are effective in weight control, e.g. the thyroid gland has a big effect on our weight as it affects body metabolism. The asanas like shoulder stand and the fish posture are very effective for the thyroid gland.
