3 Things We Lose with Aging (and How Yoga Can Help) | Ep. 6

As we get older, our bodies go through natural changes that can make daily life feel harder — but those changes aren’t set in stone. In fact, many of the abilities we think we “lose” with age can be protected and even restored with the right kind of practice.In this episode of Yoga for Longevity, we’ll look at three key areas that tend to decline as the years go by. These are the ones I see again and again in my work with students 50+, and when they start to slip, confidence often goes with them. The good news? Your body adapts to what you practice. And with yoga, you can build back strength, awareness, and mobility at any age.I’ll also share two simple practices you can try right away — one you can do lying down, and one you can do standing — that help reconnect you to the parts of your body that matter most for healthy, vibrant aging.In this episode, you’ll learn:The three surprising areas of decline that shape your mobility and independenceWhy these abilities matter for posture, balance, strength, and confidenceHow yoga uniquely trains the body without strain or pounding on the jointsTwo practical practices you can try today to feel more open, strong, and steadyWhy consistency matters more than intensity for lifelong mobilityAbout me:I’m Mikah Horn, a yoga therapist with a Master of Science in Yoga Therapy.
