The life of an actor and model is filled with many challenges and the same is the case with Julian Brand. He works hard and it surely takes a toll on his body. While he does workout to stay fit, he also believes that yoga and meditation go a long way in promoting physical fitness and mental stability. As someone who has been practicing yoga for a long time, Julian Brand knows the in and outs of the art and knows what benefits it provides.

Yoga is known to provide physical and mental health benefits to people of all ages. Yoga can also help a lot if you’re going through an illness or recovering from an injury. Being a yogi himself, actor Julian Brand always promotes it and tells people about its benefits. There are different yoga practices and plans for different types of results and they have been proven to provide said results.

While there are a lot of benefits of this ancient practice, Julian Brand brings you the major benefits of yoga. So, breathe in, breathe out, and let’s begin:

Improves Balance, Strength, And Flexibility

Yoga improves Balance, Strength, and Flexibility. The various poses in yoga are challenging to do and not easy to master, however, you get better and better as you keep practicing. So, as you start to master complicated poses, you’ll start to feel the positive outcomes of the practice. Plus, your strength, balance, and flexibility will be much elevated than before.

Relieves Back Pain

In today’s harsh, busy, and fast world, almost everyone experiences back pain from working hard and hustling every day. Especially those that are in a highly-demanding profession such as acting or modeling. So, Julian Brand says with his personal experience that practicing yoga helps a lot with back pain. Just try it… you’ll be astonished by the results and won’t stop doing it.

Helps With Arthritis Pain

Yes, it has been proven that yoga helps by easing arthritis pain. As someone who struggles with arthritis pain in his legs and arms, I can say that it has helped me a lot more than steroids and other ways to deal with it. Plus, it’s a great replacement for pain-relieving drugs (painkillers) and steroids. Nowadays, even doctors recommend yoga for helping with arthritis pain if the pain is not major.

Keeps Your Heart Healthy

The breathing exercises in yoga make your heart health better as more air flows through your lungs. Your heart gets more air circulation and pumps blood at an appropriate rate. This does a lot for your heart’s health and ultimately, your health. Breathing exercises also help a ton by increasing your lung capacity as you breathe more properly than you normally do, the way you’re supposed to breathe.

Helps You Sleep Better

Yoga improves your mental health a lot and helps you in thinking positive thoughts. Optimism and a clear head are very important for you to get an appropriate amount of sleep at night. A well-rested body and mind are healthy and fit body and mind. If you are struggling with insomnia, yoga will do wonders for you and help you by making you sleep better. An eight-hour sleep is crucial for having good health and yoga will help you in getting that. As someone who struggled with insomnia, I can easily say that yoga did help a lot to cure my insomnia. Even Julian Brand had trouble sleeping with his hectic schedule as a model and an actor and what helped him in this situation was and is yoga.

Stress Management

Yoga exercises help you calm down as more oxygen goes into your brain than normal due to today’s busy and harsh world. Almost everyone struggles with stress nowadays and it is essential to have something that releases the stress. If you practice yoga daily, you’ll feel a lot less stressed than you normally do because of your hectic schedule. Also, it is far better to have a natural way of dealing with mental health problems than drugs and antidepressants.
