Advantages of practising yoga
Yoga is a group of physical, mental, and spiritual practices or
disciplines which originated in ancient India. ‘The word “Yoga” essentially means, “that
which brings you to reality”. Literally, it means “union.” Union means it
brings you to the ultimate reality, where individual manifestations of life are
surface bubbles in the process of creation’- Sadhguru.
It’s a believe that Yoga chooses people because through Yoga you will be
connecting with the Universe, you will be in a surrender state to the nature.
The purpose of Yoga is to build strength, awareness and harmony in both body
and mind. In Yoga they call poses as Asanas.
There are roughly 84 asanas in
Yoga, yoga practitioner finds its challenging by unlocking each and one of the
asanas. There are many advantages by practising Yoga. One of them is gives
you peace of mind. It slows down the mental loops of frustration, anger,
regret, fear and desires that can cause stress. And because of stress it can
lead you to many health problems. If you learn to quiet your mind, you’ll be
likely to live longer and healthier.
Second Yoga helps you to increase your self-esteem. Many of us
personally have lower self-esteem in certain ways and that leads us to handle
this negatively. But if we take Yoga as a positive approach and practice Yoga,
we can notice a different side of ourselves. You’ll experience feelings such as
gratitude, empathy and forgiveness as well as sense that you’re a part of
something bigger.
Most importantly, practising Yoga makes you to have a healthy eating habit.
The more Asanas you have unlocked the more you are into Yoga and that makes you
to change some of your lifestyle habits. Logically if you whacked food and
practice Yoga afterwards you cannot do the Asanas completely. Eventually, you
will reduce eating and change your eating lifestyle.
Most of us misunderstand that Yoga is particularly for non-Muslims. It
is absolutely incorrect; Yoga is a way of life and everyone in this world can
practice it. Yoga changes us mentally and physically and I believe it is the
most important thing all of us have to have in our life. Personally, I have come
across many people whose life changed after practising Yoga. Everything begins
with us but the question is when?
