(HealthDayNews) -- Your ability to exercise and deal with stress can be helped by engaging in slow, deep, rhythmic breathing.
While that type of breathing doesn't come naturally to most people, they can learn better breathing techniques through yoga, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Yoga emphasizes deep, quiet, smooth and even breathing that's free of pauses. People doing yoga focus on breathing through their nose and deep within the diaphragm.
If you're interested in taking yoga classes, look for an experienced instructor who has studied and practiced yoga for years. Check that the instructor can adapt yoga poses to suit people with varying levels of experience and flexibility.
