Hatha Yoga for Endocrine Health
Hatha Yoga for Endocrine Health is a gentle, restorative yoga class that addresses the health and balance in your endocrine system. The endocrine system is a ductless glandular system featuring the thyroid, thymus, hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenal glands, as Unlike the digestive system, which secretes enzymes through ducts into the digestive organs, the endocrine glands secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream. In Yoga for Endocrine Health, Leela guides you through a series of postures that help to balance your mood, appetite, sleep functions and sexual hormones by creating glandular locks throughout the body to refresh and stimulate the endocrine system to improve your overall sense of well-being and health.
