Weight Loss Yoga Videos Online

Does yoga help with weight loss, or just flexibility??

either way, anyone know of some good free yoga videos online?

It helps with both, actually. Although most types of yoga don’t have anything near the calorie-burning power of aerobic exercise. A 150-pound person will burn 150 calories in an hour of doing regular yoga, compared to 311 calories for an hour of walking at 3 mph. But it is exercise, and has helped many people take off pounds or maintain a healthy weight.
Power or Ashtanga yoga can offer all the fat-burning potential – and heart benefits — of an aerobic workout.
It combines meditative breathing with faster, more active movements. The result is a workout that can be more aerobic than many other aerobic exercises.

Yoga also makes you more ready for change – so if you are thinking you want to change your lifestyle, you want to change the way you think about food, you want to get over destructive eating patterns, yoga will help give you the spiritual connection to your body that can help you make those changes.

Another idea is that yoga forms a strong mind-body connection that ultimately helps make you more aware of what you eat and how it feels to be full.
