The benefits of Yoga



Yoga comes from the sanskrit word ‘yuj’ which means to join, joining the inner self with the highest power. One of the biggest gifts of India to the world, the purpose of Yoga is to make the individual aware of his body and the surroundings so to help him lead a life that is not only free of diseases and ailments but also a joyful and enthusiastic one. Aiming at physical as well as mental and emotional fitness, its a true blessing to mankind. I used to practice yoga regularly till 2 years back but unfortunately and i should not make any excuses, its just my stupidity that i stopped. At that time i never paid heed to how it was helping me emotionally and mentally but now when i no more do yoga i realize and only regret!!!! Anyways its never too late and International yoga day was a great reminder to go back to this discipline that has got the whole world moving to it.

I had a great yoga session yesterday at Shangri-La new delhi with other bloggers that left me literally crave for yoga in my life so today i am sharing the benefits of yoga from my and my mom in laws  (we practiced together) experience a reminder to us and i hope they can inspire you to practice it as well.

  1. The first was flexibility- After 15 days my mom in law could bend and touch her feet. Even though her weight had only slightly changed.
  2. Our postures improved significantly- the many asanas and poses discipline your posture.
  3. Skin glows as the toxins go out and you have inner peace, so you don't have to take care of ur skin from the outside and also less makeup, lol!
  4. We could concentrate better- Since you need concentration and focus to keep your balance for the poses so when you practice yoga you also practice concentration and focus.
  5. Happier- With inner peace comes happiness but for a quick fix the lotus pose always helped.
  6. Reaction and intuition- Yoga makes you be in the present and be more aware of it so you are more intuitive and you react to situations better and faster.
  7. And of course we were physically fitter and trimmer.

I really wish i could do a crazy yoga pose to post but after being off it for so long i can barely scrape through the poses. That said i really hope i will have a crazy pose for the next years international yoga day.


Thank you for stopping by! See you with my next.

Love

  1. I have really tried to like yoga but it's just not for me... I prefer pilates and am hoping it has similar benefits?

  3. First, gorgeous photo! Second, I couldn't agree more with the benefits of yoga. I have always found yoga to be quite difficult for me personally, even very beginner stuff, but I do need to do it more often. I could really use an increase in flexibility AND relaxation!
