Yoga and running are more effective than drugs or therapy in treating depression, a new study published in the British Medical Journal has shown.

'Exercise is an effective treatment for depression, with walking or jogging, yoga, and strength training more effective than other exercises, particularly when intense.'

Data was reviewed from clinical trials involving 14,170 people.

Group yoga classes were also shown to be highly effective at improving symptoms of depression, as the social interaction can provide added benefits.

The study said that exercise should be considered as a “core treatment for depression”, and the NHS should offer exercise classes alongside other treatments including antidepressants and psychotherapy.

Great day in Manchester with Marion Kilburn ❤️

Another beautiful photo from Saturday at the EoL Day. Demonstrating how to safely help a capable student in their paschimottanasana. Here we looked at ensuring the lovely Manuela doesn't overwork in a pose which she could easily continue to stretch. There's a point where you just need to be in the pose.
