This can strengthen the core muscles and, in turn, ward off the pain . Fight depression According to John Hopkins Medicine, women aged 45 - 64 have a higher risk of being depressed . It was also revealed in a study that women who suffer from mental distress were less stressed after engaging in a three -month yoga class.
