Tuổi thọ cao nhất trên thế giới
Các điểm nóng về tuổi thọ được đặt tại các vùng của các quốc gia khác nhau, nơi mọi người thường sống cuộc sống năng động ở tuổi 100. Vùng màu xanh được coi là "ốc đảo tuổi thọ" và những người sống ở đó được cho là có tuổi thọ cao nhất trên Trái đất .
Những phụ nữ sống lâu nhất đã được tìm thấy ở Okinawa, Nhật Bản. Một vùng màu xanh khác được phát hiện ở vùng núi Sardinia, Ý, nơi thậm chí cả đàn ông đạt tới 100 tuổi với tỷ lệ đáng ngạc nhiên, một vùng khác được phát hiện trên Bán đảo Nicoya của Costa Rica vào năm 2007. Chỉ một trong những vùng màu xanh nằm ở Hoa Kỳ. Thông tin này được phát hiện khi các nhà nghiên cứu đang ở tại Loma Linda, California khám phá ra họ bị một phần nhỏ các bệnh giết người ở các vùng khác của Hoa Kỳ và các nước phát triển. Vùng màu xanh cuối cùng được tìm thấy trên một chuyến thám hiểm đến đảo Ikaria, Hy Lạp, nơi họ có tỷ lệ mắc bệnh tim thấp hơn 50%, ung thư ít hơn 20% và gần như không mắc bệnh mất trí nhớ.

Health Benefits of Yoga
Yoga is a healthy lifestyle. One of the benefits of yoga is that you can choose a yoga style that is suitable for your lifestyle, such as hot yoga, power yoga, relaxation yoga, etc. If you are a yoga beginner, Hatha Yoga, which focuses on basic postures at a comfortable pace, would be great for you. If you want to increase strength through using more of your own body’s resistance, Power Yoga may be right for you. Whether you prefer you're at home, in a private session, watching a DVD or at a studio or gym, there are a huge variety of options
available to suit your goals and needs.
Improved flexibility is one of the first and most obvious benefits of yoga. During your first class, you probably won’t be able to touch your toes. But if you stick with it, you’ll notice a gradual loosening, and eventually, seemingly impossible poses will become possible. Each of the yoga poses is built to reinforce the muscles around the spine, the very center of your body, which is the core from which everything else operates. When the core is working properly, posture is improved, thus alleviating back, shoulder, and neck pain.
Strong muscles do more than look good. They also protect us from conditions like arthritis and back pain, and help prevent falls in elderly people. And when you build strength through yoga, you balance it with flexibility. If you just went to the gym and lifted weights, you might build strength at the expense of flexibility.
Yoga gets your blood flowing. More specifically, the relaxation exercises you learn in yoga can help your circulation, especially in your hands and feet. Yoga also gets more oxygen to your cells, which function better as a result. Twisting poses are thought to wring out venous blood from internal organs and allow oxygenated blood to flow in once the twist is released.
Many studies found that a consistent yoga practice improved depression and led to greater levels of happiness and better immune function.

One of the benefits of yoga is that you can choose a yoga style that is suitable for your lifestyle, such as hot yoga, power yoga, relaxation yoga, etc. If you are a yoga beginner, Hatha Yoga, which focuses on basic postures at a comfortable pace, would be great for you. If you want to increase strength through using more of your own body’s resistance, Power Yoga may be right for you. Whether you prefer you're at home, in a private session, watching a DVD or at a studio or gym, there are a huge variety of options
available to suit your goals and needs.
Improved flexibility is one of the first and most obvious benefits of yoga. During your first class, you probably won’t be able to touch your toes. But if you stick with it, you’ll notice a gradual loosening, and eventually, seemingly impossible poses will become possible. Each of the yoga poses is built to reinforce the muscles around the spine, the very center of your body, which is the core from which everything else operates. When the core is working properly, posture is improved, thus alleviating back, shoulder, and neck pain.
Strong muscles do more than look good. They also protect us from conditions like arthritis and back pain, and help prevent falls in elderly people. And when you build strength through yoga, you balance it with flexibility. If you just went to the gym and lifted weights, you might build strength at the expense of flexibility.
Yoga gets your blood flowing. More specifically, the relaxation exercises you learn in yoga can help your circulation, especially in your hands and feet. Yoga also gets more oxygen to your cells, which function better as a result. Twisting poses are thought to wring out venous blood from internal organs and allow oxygenated blood to flow in once the twist is released.
Many studies found that a consistent yoga practice improved depression and led to greater levels of happiness and better immune function.

Cải thiện tính linh hoạt là một trong những lợi ích đầu tiên và rõ ràng nhất của yoga. Trong lớp học đầu tiên của bạn, bạn có thể sẽ không thể chạm vào ngón chân của bạn. Nhưng nếu bạn gắn bó với nó, bạn sẽ nhận thấy một sự nới lỏng dần dần, và cuối cùng, những tư thế dường như không thể sẽ trở thành có thể. Mỗi tư thế yoga được xây dựng để củng cố các cơ xung quanh xương sống, chính giữa cơ thể của bạn, là cốt lõi mà mọi thứ khác hoạt động. Khi lõi hoạt động bình thường, tư thế được cải thiện, do đó làm giảm đau lưng, vai và cổ.
Cơ bắp khỏe mạnh làm nhiều hơn vẻ đẹp. Chúng cũng bảo vệ chúng ta khỏi các tình trạng như viêm khớp và đau lưng, và giúp ngăn ngừa té ngã ở người già. Và khi bạn xây dựng sức mạnh thông qua yoga, bạn cân bằng nó với sự linh hoạt. Nếu bạn chỉ cần đi đến phòng tập thể dục và nâng tạ, bạn có thể xây dựng sức mạnh với chi phí linh hoạt.
