Yoga Practice: Adjusting Body and Heart

One of the effects of yoga is to help relax the body and mind, and use the most natural treatment to remove the discomfort of the body. Basic yoga consists of three parts: posture practice, breathing and meditation. Accelerate the circulation of blood in parts of the body by stretching, pulling, twisting, squeezing, etc.; gently press the internal organs to activate the relaxation response of the glandular system of the whole body, slow down the heart and breathing, restore blood pressure, and increase the flexibility of joints and spine; Relax the meridians and activate the circulation to achieve balance throughout the body and restore the body's ability to heal itself.

Breathing is the source of life. Slowly controlling breathing can "breathe out the past and absorb the new", enhance physical and mental health and function, thereby consolidating the foundation and strengthening the spirit. Finally, enter a meditative state and think positively. The American Journal of the Endocrinology Society points out that a 50-minute yoga class can reduce stress hormones in the body. Therefore, as the body relaxes, the person's heart will become soft and relaxed, entering a calm and peaceful place; away from daily stress; and gain a clear and clear heart and a light and flexible body shape.

According to research, yoga can relieve stress and anxiety, control pain, and soothe emotions. It can be used as an auxiliary treatment for diabetes, hypertension, depression, insomnia, obesity, back pain, asthma, indigestion, premenstrual discomfort, migraine, etc.

The deepest connotation of yoga is not only to regulate the body, but also to regulate the mind; persistent practice can lead to a peaceful and tranquil mentality, a healthy and happy lifestyle, and a maximum sense of happiness.

According to cognitive scientists, an adult thinks about 50000 times a day, whether about the past, the future, or things that are out of reach, but rarely involve the present, here, or present moments. When we accidentally cross the shackles of the endless stream of consciousness, we will suddenly discover a life that is very different from the experiences we are familiar with: no longer fretting about the past or worrying about the future; but freely experience the present of life, let go of the inherent Self-defeating beliefs and judgments, break free from the shackles of past experience, and gain a peaceful and happy mentality.

And this is the basic idea advocated by yoga: seize the present, start and end in the present moment, bring life from worry to eternal happiness, bring failure to success, and bring ignorance to enlightenment. These accessible realms come from the current moment. Through postures and breathing exercises, you can help you restore balance, effectively control your brain, and gain inner tranquility; and use a normal mind to treat others, all things, and most importantly to yourself. Because of concentration, people live in the present, so they discover the beauty of the present.

True yoga is a spiritual cultivation and a healthy, pure and auspicious way of life. Coordinate the balance of body and mind from the inside out and from the outside to the inside; it not only shapes the external image of a person, but also takes care of the inner feelings, giving you a power that comes from the deepest part of your heart.
