Losing your hair can be caused by a number of factors,including genetics and stress. Yoga will not prevent you from losing hair if you are predetermined to lose hair through genetics or other medical condition. However,if the cause of your hair loss is stress, yoga can be very beneficial. Reducing stress is one of the fundamental goals of all yoga styles, so going doing any yoga style may work. If you are a beginner, you may want to try Hatha yoga, which focuses on poses and basic Sun Salutations. The poses will help eliminate stress in your body, especially if done properly and carefully. After completing the series of poses, you will lie down for Shivasana (resting pose). During Shivanasa, you will meditate and reduce stress in your mind. If you find this mild meditation works well for you, you might want to try full mediation,where you meditate for up to an hour. This can be very beneficial in eliminating stress in your life and making you more peaceful. It has been proven that by eliminating stress hair loss is reduced (but unfortunately, not eliminated). But remember, yoga will not help you grow new hair – only genetics can do that.
