Actors without the practice of yoga cannot explore their immense artistic abilities. It helps in the attainment of perfect equilibrium and harmony, promotes self- healing, removes negative blocks from the mind and toxins from the body, enhances personal power, increases self-awareness, helps in attention focus and concentration, especially important for children and reduces stress and tension in the physical body by activating the parasympathetic nervous system.
