We give undue importance to our health and the treatment of diseases.
A large number of medicines treat only the symptoms of the disease,
and not the root cause. In fact, the cause of many chronic ailments is
still being researched.
It is here that Yoga therapy comes to our assistance. Yoga emphasizes
treatment of the root cause of an ailment. It works in a slow, subtle
and miraculous manner. Modern medicine can claim to save a life at a
critical stage, but, for complete recovery and regaining of normal
health, one must believe in the efficiency of Yoga therapy.
The Yogic way of life includes a code of ethics, regulations,
discipline and more, combined with prayer and meditation. Even a
discussion of these subjects helps one relieve mental tensions and
change attitudes. Simple Asanas help to stretch and relax the whole
body and neutralize tensions. The sincere practice of Yoga postures
benefits all levels of experience.
From the restoration of balance, flexibility, poise, health and well
being to the body, to the cultivation of mental equanimity, emotional
balance, and inner strength. On a physical level Yoga postures
stimulate the glands, organs, muscles and nerves in ways that
traditional exercise cannot.
Muscle tightness and strain is quickly relieved and both circulation
and digestion improves. Stress-related symptoms like poor sleep,
fatigue, muscle spasms, anxiety, and indigestion are greatly improved.
Through continued practice Yoga postures can have a profound effect on
the inner dimensions of life, establishing deep calm, concentration,
emotional stability and confidence.
