create higher levels of the brain chemical GABA according to an article in The Journal of Alternative Medicine,
published by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. Yoga has been shown to increase the level of gamrna-aminobutyric (氨基
丁酸) acid, or GABA, a chemical in the brain that helps to regulate nerve activity. GABA activity is reduced in
people with mood and anxiety disorders, and drugs that increase GABA activity are commonly used to improve
mood and decrease anxiety. The authors suggest that the practice of Yoga stimulates specific brain areas,
