Yoga also emphasizes deep breathing, which can help improve problems such as asthma and tracheal sensitivity. It can also enhance the individual's immune system and relieve mental stress. It is a healthy activity. "However, it is not recommended for children to practice the yoga movements that adults do, and parents should also try to prevent their children from following suit."
