What is Yoga?
Yoga focuses on harmony between mind and body. Yoga
derives its philosophy from Indian metaphysical beliefs. The word yoga comes from
Sanskrit language and means union
or merger. The ultimate aim of this philosophy is to strike
a balance between mind and body and attain self-enlightenment. To
achieve this, yoga uses movement, breath, posture, relaxation and meditation in
order to establish a healthy, lively and balanced approach to life.
Though the exact origins of Yoga
are unknown but Yoga is considered to be the oldest
physical discipline in existence. Yoga, thus symbolizes balance in every area of
life. In the earlier times, the rationale of the Yoga postures and breathing exercises
was to bring stability and relaxation
so practitioners could prepare for the rigors of meditation, sitting still and alert
for long periods of time. In modern context also Yoga can play an important role in maintaining a fine balance between work and healthy mind.
Yoga Tips
- The most appropriate time for practicing Yoga is in the morning. It is the time when the mind is calm, composed and fresh and the body movements can be performed with considerable ease and vigor.
- To get started you need to have the urge and confidence in yourself.
- To practice Yoga you must choose a place which is calm, quiet, ventilated, dust free, moisture free and distraction free.
- Before you start Yoga, you must clear your bowels and bladder; clean your nostrils and throat of all mucus. You must also drink a glass of lukewarm water.
- Wait for a few minutes and then you can start.
- Like all other work outs you must begin with easy poses, thereafter you can advance to the tough ones. Be methodical and systematic.
- Remember, to start with your movements should be light and if you feel fatigue in between you must discontinue.
