Yoga

A low-impact exercise option that has the added benefit of being good for your mental, as well as physical, health.

The Argument

In the midst of the chaos that is the Covid-19 pandemic, yoga acts as a retreat for many people. The strength, flexibility, focus, and balance needed to do yoga flows will sometimes force the body and mind into a meditative state. Other times, it allows someone a healthy distraction from their day-to-day. Although, simple meditation requires someone to have a solid mental center. That is extremely difficult for many people during this time. It requires a lot more mental control than most people have at this time. Yoga is both a physically and mentally engaging activity that provides a physical center to meditation or an opportunity for a mental release, depending on the practice.[1]
