Yoga is a Doctrine for life. It is not a religion. Yoga is not simply a set of postures. It is a system that not only purifies the body and mind but the foundation to organize your energies and reach the highest dimensions of life.
Role of Yoga. In this busy world with its many roles, it is difficult to find time to nurture and take care of ourselves. It seems that our busy schedules just don’t allow us the luxury of taking time to do what would be truly helpful for our minds and bodies to replenish from stress-related activities in our lives.
Dr. Comin understands this complex world and has created a solution that was once offered to her in the early ’70s, bringing the personal touch of yoga to her home. Teaching you how to create a space that brings peace through inner focus, breath work, flexibility, balance, vitality, stamina, and strength. Yoga is the only discipline that integrates Body, Mind, and spirit.
The body has many basic needs such as good nutrition, good hydration, adequate sleep, proper breathing, relaxation, and proper exercise. Yoga is one discipline that addresses health and fitness needs in a holistic manner. Yoga means union. Union of body, mind with Spirit. It is the bridge between your mind and the body’s physical actions. When there is a connection between mind and body the mind directs the body to take action in truth, and wisdom for the higher self.
In other words, the universal truth directs the body to make kinder, and thoughtful actions in the world towards ourselves and others. Yogasan is a fitness regime that can be utilized throughout your lifetime, once the postures are mastered. Yoga is portable and can be practiced anywhere at any time. One on One yoga to you customizes your fitness program for your individualized needs and allows you to do this in the convenience and privacy of your own home.
Regardless of your fitness level, yoga meets you where you are. Yoga teaches you how to respect your body and know your body’s limitations. It teaches you to find your edge, release your fears, and build confidence. Yoga assists you in cultivating the inner teacher that guides you through practice with mindfulness, thereby learning how to release yourself from bad habits and build healthy ones. No one knows your body and mind better than “you” and yoga encourages the student to embrace this inner teacher.
Yogasan or Yoga Postures will de-stress and reshape your body, it will improve circulation, and oxygenation, and will stimulate the abdominal organs, and place acupressure on the glandular organs of the body which results in better health, as well as realigning your spine giving you healthier posture.
The breathing techniques (Pranayam) developed in yoga practice are based on the concept that breath is the source of life. During Pranayam, students are encouraged to focus on their breathing so that it flows with the movements thereby providing an inner meditative focus that balances and aligns the Body and Mind. Breathing is the primary focus for the foundation of any meditation practice.
Those that embrace yoga as a part of their lifestyle and understand the role of yoga will tell you that it does reverse the aging process and increases mental clarity. Yoga takes patience and discipline, but with practice will provide the practitioner with meaningful changes in their life experiences. The role of Yoga is not competitive it is internally motivated.
