Let we try to understand about asana(postures) and there relations with the anatomy

Namaste…
What asana will do for you?
Most of us practice our asana with out knowing the deep connection between our body and our mind. In this article I don’t explain deeper but I wish it may be understandable.
When we understand in this way so it’s easy for us to practice when you’re not able to get practiced with yoga masters or instructors. Practicing the yoga self is not advisable because you may not know the side effects of the wrong movement of your postures.

1. A Healthy nervous system (brain & spine)
Brain:
.A healthy nervous system indeed for our most of the body and mind action in our life. Nerves from brain and spine go to every tissue in the body.
Asana or postures: Head stand asana helps to increase circulation to the brain cells. It helps to increase the power of brain

Spine:
Brain is covered by the skull bone but spine is not like the brain protective. Since nerves from the spine goes all parts of the organs and glands. A little misalignment of the spine can be corrected by the asana.


2. A Healthy Endocrine glands
The most important are the pituitary, pineal, thyroid, adrenal, pancreas and sex glands.

Location of the glands and the asanas for the glands

1. Pituitary + pineal is located in the brain. Head stand and downward asana are providing powerful effects on them.
2. Thyroid is located in the neck region. Shoulder stand asanas are helpful also some asana which expand the chest is also effective.
3. Adrenal & pancreas is located in the solar plexus. It’s an important organ which balances our stress and immunity .Twisting asana are effective. It helps to balance the sugar level in our body.
4. Sex gland is located at the Pelvic region this gland not only for the sex virility but also for sparking eyes, soft skin & warm personality. Reverse postures are effective.

The function of these glands is to secrete powerful hormones which control our growth, weight, size, Emotional state also sexual energy.

3. A Healthy internal organ
As well as having a great effects in the brain, spine and glands most of the asanas massage the internal organs. Asana helps to have a healthy digestive system, healthy joints and a healthy skin.

Diabetes and Yoga
Because of this fast modern world, food and the way of our life we are buying so many diseases .Diabetes is playing a major role in most of the life especially in westerners. It’s now slowly move towards Asians too.

What is diabetes?
Diabetes is a condition when the pancreas in the human body fails to produce insulin. Incidentally, insulin is the hormone that converts the sugar in the food into energy. Insufficient secretion of insulin by pancreas results in excess glucose level in the bloodstream, resulting in diabetes. The blood glucose is required to be used up to provide energy and fuel to the body, in order to do its work. If the level of glucose is high, it eventually affects the body parts. Yoga plays a great role curing the diabetes if you fallow the Yoga postures in daily way.
Note: If you ready to fallow the yoga postures which I shown you above, you have to knew that you not suffered from any back pain or neck pain or menstruation if you have any one please be patient and practice under a guidance of a good yoga teachers.

*Surya namaskar(sun salutation have not shown above)have to do 3 round
*Each and every posture should hold on minimum 20 seconds if you feel it’s harder relax and do it again
*Never strain yourself
*there are some postures which may not able to do; there are many alternate postures for that.
*for all postures you have to do relax pose. Eg:if you do the shoulder stand & plough pose you have to do fish pose or wheel pose.
*There are many postures which help but i just mentiond few.

key words for beginners of pranayama and meditation

Pranayama:

The right time to do the pranayama is during the sunrise and during the sunset hours. There are only few pranayama that have to be done in mouth (sithali,sittari etc..) rest of all should done only at the nose (pasthrika,kabalapathi,etc). After you finish pranayama in the morning you can feel the whole day is fresh and also when you back from work when you do it you may feel the softness of your mind and the body. During the practice when you feel you need to count you just do it as much you can.

Meditation:

Meditation can be done in a silence place it’s easy to get not disturbed from the external world. Music is one of the tools for meditation for the beginners you can select any soft music or mantras the music which u feel peaceful with … you can select it. No matter which time… when you feel you have time just sit and do it. But according to the yoga sutras early morning 3 -4 am is the right time which is called as brahma mukurtha in Sanskrit. But the world and timing has been faster now. So there is no wrong when you have free time you can do. Better is early morning. There are many different kinds of meditation which may done in different way what I am saying is just for the beginners and its one of the way.

a simple methods for pranayama and meditation

What is meditation?
The word meditation means the stage of empty mind.” Meditation is nothing. Nothing is meditation”. It’s very easy to give the techniques of meditation but the practice is challenging. We all know that our human mind just like a drunken monkey which never stays in one place .Seating in one place our mind can make more then 1000 thoughts in a fraction of seconds. Some peoples can’t even sleep at night almost 95% of the timing’s we spent on dreams. Then where we get the energy to face the stressful life?
Pranayama(breathing exercise) and meditation is a great boon to enter the peaceful life in this stressful world. To get deeper meditation pranayama is indeed. When you master at pranayama it’s easy to control your mind. If you don’t have much knowledge about pranayama you can select different techniques of meditation, so don’t worry about that. But according to the pantanjali the father of yoga, pranyama and then meditation which explain in the eight limbs or stages of ashtanga yoga. Let me give you few techniques of pranayama and meditation.

1. Chest breathe---In this breath concentrate your mind deeply on your chest part and have a deep inhale, during your inhalation expand your chest and slowly exhale, during your exhalation relax your chest. When you do this you may feel abdomen movement or shoulder movement. That’s normal when u do at first time. When you having this breath don’t push your abdomen just keep relax but when during your inhalations you may feel that the abdomen is sucking towards up. If you feel it’s hard to do this. Lie down and try. Do this for 15 times slowly. Deeply inhale and slowly exhale. This is normal breathing style.

2. Meditation---Human mind just like a Ball, when you push the ball inside the water its nature is just it will come towards up. Same way when you try to control your mind, it wan to go around. At first stage of meditation its advice to concentrate some soft music that which you like or repeating some mantra like OM, Om nama shivaya, Om Jesus. So on...or you can simple concentrate your breath. This is the first stage to get enter into the meditation. When you begin to start doing those meditation styles at first your mind may fly around just leave him where ever it go and it will back soon…

“All shastras speak but vaguely, they do not teach better than your won eyes”….It mean’s keep on practice what ever you got as a knowledge in your daily life…Just reading alone wont give you the benefits. Be good do good.. Hariom tatsat..

To get ride of belly and To have a strong abdomen

Namaste...

Note:first start with surya Namaskar(Sun Salutation)at least 3 rounds or 6 rounds.(if you dont know what is surya namaskar please google it...and then do the other asanas starts from Standing postures,sitting,laydown(forward and then supine).Never forget to do the last relaxation posture(Savasana).If you dont know any thing about Bandha(the picture which shows the movement of the abdomen is bandha) just skip it.Because its To danger to practice with out a proper teacher guide.

I recommend that if you know already Yoga let you look it and practice or practice with professional Yoga teachers is good. Enjoy your practice and stay with yoga to get a strong health and peace of mind.

To get ride of Belly and get a stronger abdomen Regular practice of Asana is indeed..A Minimum of one hour workout is indeed. There are several postures which help you to get a stronger abdomen. Each and every postures of asana operates the full systems of the body. So you’re getting benefits a lot in each and every postures. But the main thing is you need to flow each asana with your Breath. It’s indeed to fallow the breath and asana together to get full benefits. And all the asana is good when you hold on minimum 60 seconds. If you’re not able to do that .You can hold for 10 or 20 seconds and have rest and again continue. Nor you can do 10 or 20 seconds today and later increase the time slowly. But in Each and every movement of your posture don’t give to much of stress to your physical nor your breath.
Most of the peoples have the Wrong idea on Yogasana(Asanas).Peoples think that when they get too tired it means they get a good workout. It’s completely wrong way of thought. When ever you finish your yoga session at the end of your class whether your practice in a yoga school nor self. You should feel a Peaceful in your physical and in the mental this kinds of experience is the real.Also there are many postures which give you strong abdomen and reduce the belly.Here i just select some postures and showed you.

Enjoy your prsent..aum
