Book excerpt: This book will empower you to become more engaged in your moment-to-moment experiences, changing the way you show up everyday in your body and life. The body speaks we are just not listening. Doing less and being more is a health secret-actually slowing down long enough to reconnect and align with the body and its infinite intelligence and possibilities. There is so much research pointing towards interoception (feeling inside yourself) mindfulness (actually being in the moment vs. mind wandering) movement and relaxation as medicine for the body, mind and spirit. This book will provide insight into the way stress effects the body and how we can use the practice of yoga including, mindful movement, breathing, meditation, self massage, reflection, embodied anatomy and interospection to change the way we exist in our bodies and lives; turning our postures to prayers and movement as medicine. www.empoweredyoga.ca

We all want to feel good about ourselves and yoga provides a way of realising our potential so that we can enjoy a full life. To be fit in body, steady in mind and strong in spirit are all attributes that build self-confidence and the inner strength to cope with all complexities of life. It is the author's firm belief that the practice of yoga has a subtle influence on improving the quality of our lives. In Starting Yoga, the author, Alan Bradbury, in his gentle and elegant way, invites you to take up the challenge of yoga and to see where it takes you. He presents a step-by-step guide to classical yoga postures and individual chapters cover getting started, good posture, standing and seated poses, and backbends and twists. Other chapters teach you how to relax, how to breathe efficiently and how to incorporate the bandhas [the chin lock, the root lock and the stomach lift] in order to help eliminate the obstacles to that 'feel-good factor' we all search for. As you become fitter, stronger and more alive you will come to understand some of the nuances that make yoga so special. "This book achieves the correct balance between the beginner's need for simplicity, clarity and guidance and the need for accessibility and loyalty to the traditional philosophical elements of yoga."

Download or read book Yoga: for Beginners: Your Guide to Master Yoga Poses While Calming your Mind, Be Stress Free, and Boost your Self-esteem! written by Alexander Yamashita and published by White Flower Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-25 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yoga is a belief that a man's mind, body and spirit should work in harmony with the environment and his own self. To achieve this, his emotions, actions and intelligence should all be in balance. Most people nowadays are more interested in yoga as a form of exercise. Many are practicing yoga because it is proven to help calm the mind, reduce stress, relieve pain, and lose weight (which most often translates to an increase in confidence). As a matter of fact, many doctors now accept its therapeutic benefits as they've seen it do wonders on their own patients. Some who are not familiar with yoga think that it is an exercise composed of poses that are also impossible to do. This is why some people become rather hesitant about practicing it, or even trying it. Though it may be true that some poses require impressive flexibility, there are many poses that can be done by beginners or those who are still inflexible. With this book, you will learn everything about how to begin practicing Yoga. It will teach you some basic techniques on how to prepare your body, mind, and spirit. It will teach also teach you how to slowly achieve the flexibility needed for advanced poses – in a safe, gradual way (rushing things won't be beneficial in this kind of self-improvement pursuit as doing so will only lead to injury). The book will also include basic sequences of poses, which you can use to create an exercise routine. You'll also discover what you need to learn about the essentials of yoga. In other words, you'll know exactly what you should prepare (such as mats and straps) before starting a healing exercise that can help you achieve a balanced and calm mind, spirit, and body. In addition, you will know the proper attire for doing yoga – the sort of clothes that you'll be able to move in. If you're worried that you'll only get to read about beginner-level poses and routines, you will be glad to know that this book also serves as a preview on the more advanced side of yoga. After all, most beginners eventually yearn to try something more challenging. To achieve a proper balance between enthusiasm and safety, several tips are also provided for those aiming to become advanced yoga practitioners. As you might have heard, diet is also an important aspect of this mind-calming, stress-reducing, and confidence-boosting endeavor. That's why this book also features an entire chapter dedicated to proper yoga nutrition. It won't be strict diet though, as you will only be taught how to food items that could help you reach your goal. Of course, that also means you'll become more familiar with those that won't do you any good.

Book excerpt: Iyengar yoga focuses on correct alignment of the body so that it can develop harmoniously and anatomically perfect. If the student practices with intelligence and awareness, there is little chance of injury or pain. As all bodies are different and people have specific weaknesses and difficulties, Iyengar yoga makes use of props to help students achieve the best possible poses within their limited capacity. The Iyengar method, which is renowned for its precision and attention to detail, involves the practice of asanas (postures) and pranayama (breathing). Because of the intense concentration required to position parts of the body, both skeletally and muscularly, the mind becomes focused and sharp, and this results in a form of "meditation in motion." Practitioners strive for this state of total physical awareness, mental clarity and ultimate serenity.

Book excerpt: Keeping the body in shape becomes a necessity in the modern period. Vigorous exercises are not only performed for aesthetic purposes, but also for the physical health. If a person has a well-maintained figure, he has lower risks for a declining condition. It is not actually difficult to find time for weekly exercises. A good mindset is the key towards reaching your goal successfully. Among the existing forms of psychomotor movements, yoga is the simplest and most efficient. By merely sitting on a mat, people can perform the intended activities. Even at home, one can enjoy the benefits of yoga. Both the mind and body are touched by executing the movements. The performer has to stretch his body and observe proper breathing. At the end of the day, you will find yourself relaxed and energized for the succeeding days. With plenty of activities, it is natural to encounter difficulties and severe stress. It is inherent within humans to react differently to the recent situations. Considering individual differences, it is expected that people vary in their manner of facing the reality. Some could easily adapt to the environment while others find it really hard. If you think that you need improvement in concentration and physical well-being, yoga is the perfect solution for you. Be one of the active yoga members and feel the excitement on a regular basis.
