Babies are born yogis(瑜伽练习者).Once we were all able to pull our toes up by our ears and laugh about it.Then we aged got injured and began carrying stress in our shoulders and back.In short we lost our balance.
Yoga(瑜伽) is an ancient practice that helps create a sense of union in body mind and spirit.It brings us balance.I was seriously out of balance when I started practicing yoga in 1999.I had plantar fascitis(足底筋膜炎)in both feet and my doctor had warned me against all the things I loved to do: walking hiking and playing tennis.I was desperate for exercise.Yoga became my salvation and even enhanced my other fitness activities.I practice yoga at least twice a week but I consider yoga to be part of my daily life because after a while you no longer just practice yoga—you love it.
Yoga becomes part of your physical life.Your body grows stronger more toned and more flexible as you move from one pose to the other.I spent a week in Mexico at a yoga retreat and it was the first vacation on which I lost weight.“Rather than building muscle yoga builds muscle tone ” says Shakta Kaur Khalsa author of the K.I.S.S.Guide to Yoga.“Because yoga helps maintain a balanced metabolism (新陈代谢) it also helps to regulate weight.Additionally yoga stretches muscles lengthwise causing fat to be removed around the cells.” I do yoga poses throughout the day.After hours at my computer I stretch my stiff shoulders and arms.When I need a boost of energy I do energizing poses.When I am feeling exhausted at the end of the day I do restorative poses.
Yoga becomes part of your mental life.Yoga teaches you to focus on breathing while you hold the poses.This attention to breath is calming; it dissolves stress and anxiety.I use yogic breathing on the tennis courts in the dentist’s chair and in traffic jams.You should always leave a yoga practice feeling energized not tired.If you feel tired after yoga it means you spent the time “fighting” yourself trying to force yourself into poses.In yoga you “surrender” to the pose by letting go of the tension.
Yoga becomes part of your spiritual life.Yoga is practiced by people from all religions; it is not restricted to any religious group.Yoga teaches “right” living in how we deal with ourselves and others.As I work on a difficult pose I learn patience forgiveness and the value of gentleness.Yoga advocates proper eating but you don’t have to be a vegetarian to practice yoga.
