（Madonna does it. Cameron Diaz and Reese Witherspoon do it. Jolin Tsai (Cai Yilin) also does it. But that's not why you should do yoga.

The reason you should try this 5,000?year?old Indian practice is simple: It will help you reduce those extra pounds you packed on during the holiday season and make you a happier and hotter person.

Yoga is a kind of mind?body exercise. The stretching washes away stress, anxiety, anger, and makes you feel two inches taller, tight and graceful.

The word yoga means “union” in Sanskrit (梵语), the language of ancient India, where yoga originated.

It refers to the practice of physical postures (姿势) to create balance in the body through developing both strength and flexibility.

Anyone can start doing yoga, even if you don't feel like you are very flexible. Your ability develops over time. Here are some tips for yoga beginners：

*You should find a quiet place with fresh air, free from dust, insects and unpleasant smells. There should be no distractions (分心的事)．

*You must make your stomach empty before the exercises.

*In the beginning, all movements should be practiced lightly and you must not push yourself if you become tired.

*Periods of relaxation are advisable if a particular exercise proves to be tiring.

*Breathing should be long and deep through the nose. The mouth should be closed.
