Yoga can be practiced for 15 minutes to half an hour to one full hour. Depending upon the amount of time you can dedicate to yoga, you choose your time span. I practice yoga for one complete hour. I am a fitness freak and if you are someone like me go ahead and do one hour yoga. You can practice yoga for 5 days in a week and allow your body to heal for rest of the two days. Your body will ache at the start and that ache may continue for few days before your body gets used to yoga. But if the aches and pains are caused by a particular yoga posture and not going away, discontinue that pose and meet your health care professional if needed. Do not injure yourself. People can get injured during yoga practice. Do what suits your body and is comfortable to you. Do not copy or practice the advanced poses of yoga if it does not suit you.

Along with yoga and diet, maintain a proper schedule of waking and sleeping on time to maintain good health. Your health is your wealth and maintain this biggest wealth on this planet earth by doing Yoga.
