What does yoga think about sex?

Yogis warn against indulgence because they believe it will consume life force. They said that semen contains dense life force because there are seeds of life in it. Depriving life force reduces vitality levels, reduces resistance to disease, and also delays the progress of yoga.

Yoga practitioners believe that sexual function will be normal when the reproductive system is at its healthiest. They found that the most effective way to achieve this state of health was to practice yoga positions and breathing.

Yes, senior yogis practice celibacy. They need to preserve all life forces to pursue universal consciousness. They also know that achieving this goal will lead to a great blessing, and that short-term sexual pleasure is nothing compared to this great blessing. Their minds have reached the point where they cannot be satisfied with fleeting happiness.

While yoga creates a sense of peace, does it also reduce productivity and creativity?

Since your mind is more peaceful, you naturally act smarter and waste less energy, so you are actually more productive and creative.

At the same time, yoga can do more than just create a sense of peace. By affecting the brain, glands and internal organs, yoga creates a state of high vitality, thereby further increasing productivity and creativity. (Internship Editor: Shi Yixiong)
