Yoga Stress Relief Yoga

In Hindu teachings, hatha symbolizes the opposites in the world today: hot and cold, wet and dry, male and female. It' s not quite like ying and yang, but similarly close. - FAQ Explained

The symptoms of depression are varied and the severity changes with time. We all know that yoga has become so popular over the last decade until everybody is talking about it! I even hear my hair dresser raving ho wgood my audio course is. He was raving it in front of other customers!

I was so shy that I did not know what to say.

See, today, almost everyone knows someone who says they are practicing Yoga. Many of these new yogis/yoginis are quite dedicated and go to class several times each week, but none of them truly understand what Yoga is let alone knowing teh danger that it could pose!

Let s take a look at what most teachers are teaching: You attend a class that lasts for 60-90 minutes long doing various Yoga poses/stretches/asanas or whatever you want to call them. They vary from gentle to intense. The intensity will vary from class to class, style to style and teacher to teacher. And so, the student will say they are practicing Yoga regularly every week.

I do not wish to belittle anyone s practice or imply that anyone is claiming to be or do something they are not. Yet, the fact remains that this is not Yoga. To claim that this type of activity represents learning Yoga is similar to someone learning the hand and finger exercises practiced by great pianists and thinking that they are learning to play and indeed, even are playing the piano.

This is not the fault of the student nor even the teacher sometimes as most of the teachers were taught wrongly by their own teachers! Imagine if most of the piano teachers only taught these exercises and called the practice - Piano Class. Why wouldn t the student feel he/she was learning to play the piano? The same goes for Yoga Consistency is key.

The beautifully wrapped presents and bows are far less important than your loving friendship. As a result of Yoga practice, you will easily be able to handle life s daily stress. Humankind needs time to grow up.

There is no mystery here. Practising Yoga will help you pay attention to the task at hand. You will be able to finish the task and then go on to the next task. It helps you plan your day and keep a timetable because you can easily focus your mind to get thinsg done, and you will do it willfully and enjoy the satisfaction. Remember that multitasking is all very well, but it's more for computers than man. That is why Bill Gates invented Microsoft for multitasking purposes. This would require the mind to focus.
