According to Oxford English Dictionary committee, the most used word is "time" in English Language. Yes, we spend time, watch time, manage time, lose time and even kill time and most of us say we are trying to save time. We sometimes feel 24 hours a day is not sufficient. In this modern world we try giving more emphasis on efficiency, that is, how quick and well can a work be done. So let's find some time for some quick and effective ways to relax, too. Yoga, although considered to last for hours, it is also possible to feel the benefits in minutes.
The joy of yoga.
Yoga strengthens, lengthens, limbers and loosens our bodies, energies,calms, focuses and purifies our minds. It builds stamina and suppleness in our muscles, tendons and ligaments. Yoga postures combined with breathing and meditation are the ideal ones. Even household duties such as washing dishes, vacuuming, ironing, cooking and cleaning makes us slump. Yoga postures are incredibly helpful for people whose daily tasks negatively affect their posture. When each day looks like a series of slouchy forward bends, our bodies actually yearn for such side stretches, twists and back ends, and they rejoice and sing when we practice yoga.
Yoga brings a fresh awareness if we have lost touch with our physical selves. The wholesome discipline of yoga just makes life feel better and easier. It is a reward in itself. Yoga touches our minds, bodies and souls, reuniting body, breath, mind, emotions and spirit. Inner peace comes as you relax into a sense of wholeness. It's like a long sigh out as you sink back in a warm bath after a long tiring day. It is a state of mind. While the physical postures of yoga were developed to keep our bodies fit, breathing and meditative practices like pranayama were honed to guide our minds. Rather than just seeking to touch your toes, remind yourself that practicing yoga is also about touching your own heart.
