"I was diagnosed with mild high blood pressure as a young adult and have been on a low level medication for about 10 years. During this time I have maintained an average blood pressure of around 135 / 85 with the higher number never going below 130 and sometimes as high as 150. I took my first 11 classes in consecutive days and on the seventh day my blood pressure was down to 116 / 61 and hasn't reached more than 120 since."

"I had chronic neck and shoulder pain for years. I had bursitis in both shoulders at one point (about 20 years ago) and sciatica. Bikram Yoga has really taken that chronic pain away. No more physical therapy or chiropractic visits. My strength and flexibility have improved so much since I started practicing."

 "I am OCD and when I started the yoga I began to see growth in my professional life. Our radio show's ratings went through the roof, we picked up more cities, and we're getting more, knock on wood, and I'm convinced it's because of Bikram Yoga. It helps me unwind and focus on things other than the craziness in my life. Bikram Yoga helped my body heal fast, it has helped with my back problem and my short temper."

"Bikram's 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises have empowered me to be physically, mentally and emotionally stronger than I have ever been in my entire life.

"Since I started doing Bikram Yoga, I have noticed some incredible changes. I lost about 45 pounds and I stopped taking the two cholesterol medications I had been on for the last two years. In January, my cholesterol was down to 155 from well over 300. My appetite has decreased and I have eliminated fast food and soft drinks from my diet. In addition to healing the lower back injury, the most remarkable benefit I have received from Bikram Yoga is my short recovery time from a serious knee injury and knee surgery."

"Yoga relieved aches and pains in my hands, neck, and back, which are aches any massage therapist who works 8 to 10 hours a day experiences. I realized my hands did not require ice therapy that often reduced the pain, my back did not cry for rest as before, and I could turn my head with ease. BY brought me the inner peace I was missing, the 'pain free body,' and the belief that if I survived a BY class I could do anything in my life."

"This is the first winter in years that I did not get sick. I'm sleeping much better throughout the night, I can focus better, and my stress levels are very much improved (a lot more patience). I dropped 2 notches on my belt, my clothes fit better and I have more energy. The benefits are endless. In addition to mind, body and spirit I've met some wonderful people, made some new friendships, and renewed some old ones."

 "By adopting several lifestyle changes, including a vegetarian diet, eliminating heavy weight lifting and doing Bikram Yoga, I have lost about sixty pounds and feel have quite a new outlook on life. The weight loss alone has made it easier to practice, and has helped me evaluate other areas of my life and health."
