Yes, practicing specific Yoga postures just for about 20 minutes a day and regularly for a month can help one bring out his/her original beauty, enhance figure and can without doubt WOW your admirers! And I believe, practicing yoga is way better than starving yourself to death to be in shape.

Avoid eye problems

caused by T.V. and

monitors

The eye was not made to be constantly focused on close objects.

If your work requires that you stare at a computer screen all day long

or if you watch a lot of television, stop from time to time to do a few

eye exercises.

For example, roll your eyes in large circles in both directions;

look over to each side as far as possible and then go from up to

down; or scan an imaginary text on the wall from left to right; or look

out the window as far as you can following the horizon then return to

a point right in front of you and begin again.

In this way, you will avoid long term eye problems, you will

enlarge your inner space, and relax both your eyes and your mind.
