Jivamukti yoga is a modern, rigorous style of yoga that combines traditional features such as chanting and meditation with vigorous postures. It emphasizes awareness and enlightenment and can increase flexibility, relieve stress, lower blood pressure, and build muscle. It can also provide all three components of a well-balanced exercise program.

Jivamukti yoga is one of the most modern styles of yoga. While many types of yoga date back hundreds, if not thousands of years, this style was developed in the mid-1980s. It was founded as an offshoot of the more traditional Ashtanga Yoga practice.

The jivamukti style of yoga is a rigorous form of yoga that appeals to people who want a strenuous workout alongside the more traditional features of yoga, such as chanting and meditation. The term jivamukti is derived from the Sanskrit language and translates into the phrase “liberation while living.” This style of yoga has at its core an emphasis on awareness and enlightenment.

Jivamukti yoga is a unique combination of traditional chanting and meditation, as well as the most modern practice of vigorous yoga postures. At the end of a jivamukti class, you should feel physically and mentally refreshed. This is considered one of the hatha styles of yoga.

Jivamukti yoga is similar to many other styles of yoga in that it increases flexibility. Many people also believe that yoga massages the internal organs of the body and increases lubrication in the joints. Many yoga practitioners also believe that different styles of yoga remove toxins from the body.

While some of the benefits that many people believe yoga imparts are hard to back up by science, there are many well-known benefits. A jivamukti practice helps increase range of motion, relieve stress, and can also lower blood pressure. If you have previously been inactive, then jivamukti can also build muscle and help you lose fat. If you already lead an active lifestyle, jivamukti can reduce the chance of injury by increasing flexibility in your muscles and joints.

A well-balanced exercise program includes three components, cardiovascular exercise, weight-bearing exercise, and flexibility training. For the beginning exerciser, jivamukti yoga can provide all three. However, as you progress, you will need to add more rigorous cardio and weight training components to your exercise regimen if you want to continue to improve. However, it is difficult to improve on jivamukti yoga as a component of exercise that increases flexibility.
