Healing yoga with Dr. med. Peter Konopka

Yoga heals. This has been proven by international studies and medical research. Yoga instead of antibiotics, meditative exercises instead of beta blockers, breathing against asthma: yoga as a therapy is highly effective. Simple exercises have a gentle effect on the body, mind and soul. Dr. Peter Konopka - internist and sports doctor with 40 years of yoga experience - has selected the asanas that have proven themselves for decades for his book "Healing Yoga" (BLV Buchverlag). They are easy to perform, can be combined individually and have a targeted effect on the most common complaints - with no side effects.

First, the doctor and yoga teacher Konopka explains the basics and philosophy of yoga. He shows the most tried and tested relaxation exercises, explains correct breathing and gives tips on meditation and nutrition. The exercises in the book range from gentle asanas to open up the body, strengthening exercise sequences with affirmations to aasanas for every day. The book is structured according to the various complaints such as burnout syndrome, depression, exhaustion, heart problems and high blood pressure and provides the right training program for every medical condition. Peter Konopka also finds the right exercise with a holistic healing effect for headaches, back pain, sleep disorders, stress, digestive problems, menopausal problems and much more.

Dr. Peter Konopka is an internist and sports physician. He has been practicing yoga for 40 years and has been running his own yoga school in Augsburg for over 20 years. As a doctor, he is particularly interested in the healing power of yoga and its use in the targeted treatment of ailments.
