Benefits of yoga?

Hey everyone,

I have been doing the p90x yoga routine for a while and its getting a little boring, even though it kicks my butt. Anyone have any suggestions on other videos or routines?

And what exactly are the benefits of yoga and what do you have to do to get the benefits?

Thanks everyone,

Maks
