YOGA
An ancient healing and invigorating practice that can increase physical, mental and spiritual balance.
Proper Exercise (Asanas)
The body is as young as it is flexible. Yoga exercises focus on the health of the spine, its strength and flexibility. The spinal column houses the all-important nervous system, the telegraphic system of the body. By maintaining the spine's flexibility and strength through exercise, circulation is increased and the nerves are ensured their supply of nutrients and oxygen.
Proper Breathing (Pranayama)
Yoga teaches us how to use the lungs to their maximum capacity and how to control the breath. Proper breathing should be deep, slow and rhythmical. This increases vitality and mental clarity.
Proper Relaxation (Savasana)
Many os us have forgotten that rest and relaxation are nature's way of recharging. Even while trying to rest, the average person expends a lot of physical and mental energy through tension. Much of the body's energy is wasted uselessly. To regulate and balance the work of the body and mind, it is best to learn to economize the energy produced by our body. This may be done by learning to relax through yoga practice.
Proper Diet (Vegetarian)
Besides being responsible for building our physical body, the foods we eat profoundly affect our mind. For maximum body-mind efficiency and complete spiritual awareness, Yoga advocates a lacto-vegetarian diet.
Proper Meditation/Positive Thinking
Positive and creative thoughts contribute to vibrant health and a peaceful, joyful mind. A positive outlook on life can be developed by learning and practicing the teachings of the yoga philosophy. The mind can be brought under control by regular practice of meditation.
