Yoga Basics

While it is more than 5,000 years old, Yoga has been re-introduced in today's society as much-needed relief for the health concerns of our society. By faithfully following a daily practice of 20 to 30 minutes and following a nutrition and meditation, anyone who practices yoga called a yogi-can expect to: *Develop strength and muscle tone in all areas of the body. *Increase endurance and heighten resistance to many common disorders. *Maintain lifelong flexibility in spine and limbs. *Acquire greater control of the body through cultivation of balance and poise. *Overcome various negative conditions of the body. The benefits are similar, but the approach to Yoga practice is totally different from calisthenics. First, the mind and emotions must be quited; Yoga sessions should be approached in a calm, meditative mood. Then, performing the exercises, move slowly, with the poise, rhythm, control, grace and concentration of a dancer. Yoga is the ultimate rejuvenator. Everyone can participate in yoga and reap the benefits of a healthful and balanced life.
