The most common definition of aging is not what really
determines it. In reality, misusing our bodies over a long time causes the body
to degenerate and consequently look older. A lifetime of remaining sedentary,
consuming non-nutritious foods or having poor posture while working can cause
the stiffness or aches and pains commonly attributed to getting old. Regular
care and maintenance of the human body is required as much as all other types
of machines ever made by man. One of the major things that make the bodies of
humans unique is the ability to renew or regenerate themselves at the cellular
level. Yoga is an important tool that works to help maintain the health of the
human body.
