”Doctors should prescribe therapeutic yoga” says Prince Charles!! In his letter to the First Yoga in Healthcare Conference in mid February 2019, Prince Charles has said he will watch with interest as yoga is advocated to help save the NHS precious and expensive resources. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2019/02/18/yoga-can-ease-pressure-health-service-says-prince-charles/?fbclid=IwAR34ZnVF9RTEd21j1_N9CK4cttJIGTTjFgeNa2GbqvNwzQ3LQwFWbCUOkSE
The conference aimed to discuss how health and yoga experts can collaboratively incorporate yoga into healthcare and move towards a future where yoga is offered on prescription!! The idea behind this is that patients begin to work hard on self-care to prevent disease and ailments rather than taking medicines and drugs to bolt the stable door after the horse has bolted. They can also learn to use the healing benefits of yoga to help reduce heart disease, chronic pain, COPD, depression and anxiety and other mental health challenges.
