According to a study, yoga that focuses on breathing, meditation, and relaxation is connected to symptom improvement in people with heart failure. "Patients who practised yoga on top of taking their medications felt better, were able to do more, and had stronger hearts than those who only took drugs for their heart failure," said study author Dr. Ajit Singh of the Indian Council of Medical Research, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, India. Yoga linked to stronger hearts and symptom improvement in heart failure: Study Heart Failure affects vast numbers of people - more than 64 million globally and can have devastating impacts on quality of life, with patients feeling tired and breathless, and being unable to participate in their usual activities.
