Prince Chalres has announced that yoga could help save “precious and expensive” NHS resources due to its effectiveness as a tool for “health and healing”. Known for his beliefs in the power of alternative medicines, the Prince said yoga had “proven beneficial effects on both body and mind.” England’s senior health chiefs have since promised to fund more yoga classes.
In a written address to the Yoga in Healthcare conference, the Prince said: "For thousands of years, millions of people have experienced yoga's ability to improve their lives. “The development of therapeutic, evidence-based yoga is, I believe, an excellent example of how yoga can contribute to health and healing.
"This not only benefits the individual, but also conserves precious and expensive health resources for others where and when they are most needed." The Prince said his general health had improved since taking up the activity.
