“POWER OF YOGA”

Yoga in some way or another. Here’s where it gets interesting for me. Though Yoga is practiced in multiple forms across the globe, and is one the most priceless gift bestowed on us, I often wonder whether all practitioners of the field understand the true essence and purpose of Yoga.
It is important to understand that the idea that yoga primarily constitutes physical exercises or merely asanas and pranayama, etc., is an inaccuracy. Yoga is essentially a spiritual discipline based on an extremely subtle art and science, which focuses on bringing harmony between mind and body or in other words – holistic health. The main aim of practicing yoga is to Move Well, Sleep Well & most importantly Feel Well. The real beauty of yoga lies in acknowledging and respecting its ancient and complex origins and its unique ability to deliver to us, a life of profound bliss. Yoga has the power which is beyond beautifying our bodies, it is more about healing us more deeply. Yoga helps individuals to be mindful and become more aware about their bodies. Yoga has the power to make one exercise a semblance of control.
yoga and superfoods in your daily routine can help one achieve a state of balance, health and harmony. It also helps in maintaining a healthy lifestyle ecosystem.
it will help you tap into the reserve of your inner strength and find resilience and happiness while maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Amazing Benefits Of Yoga In Schools
School and college-going students may have youth on their side, but that does not mean they are spared from the stresses and pressures of life. So, let’s talk about the benefits of yoga in schools.
Sitting at a desk for hours a day, going back home and pouring over books to finish the daily homework assignments, studying and acing numerous tests, participating in various extra curricular activities, etc. all cause the body and mind to tense up.
1) Helps To Bring Peace Of Mind
The vastness of academic curriculum alone can baffle students and yet, they deal with many other extra-curricular activities and social life as well. By practising pranayama and mindfulness, students really learn how to handle the anxiety and manage the different aspects of life effectively.
The peace of mind stimulates the release of good hormones that have a snowball effect and uplifts the disposition of the child in general.
2) Improves Self-Control
Through controlled breathing and controlled movement, yoga teaches people self-control. As a result, they do not react impulsively or make hasty decisions even in an emotional state.
With self-mastery, a person can keep his or her anger in check and make rational decisions when required. If a young yogi can learn self-control at a young age, indeed, no door can ever be closed for him or her
3) Reduces Absences And Violence in School
Because of good health and balanced temperament, children are less likely to remain absent from school or pick fights with each other over small issues. Instead, they tend to engage more positively in school and develop healthy relationships with their teachers and peers.
4) Improves Memory And Attention Span
Yoga helps to improve the memory function in both adults and children, a direct benefit of which would be a better academic performance in children. It also helps to improve children’s attention span and focus. In fact, yoga aids children suffering from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder as well by reducing its core.
Many children suffering from these disease are able to reduce their medication with regular yoga practice.
5) Reduces Stress And Anxiety
Yoga helps them to deal with their stress and bring back some peace of mind. Those who regularly practice yoga not only report lower levels of stress and anxiety and subsequently improved academ performance.
Yoga is an age-old art but is relevant in present times more than ever before. When it comes to benefits of yoga, this is just the tip of the iceberg. It has multiple gross and fine rewards which can help you live a healthy and joyful life. Gift your child the abundance of yoga and watch as the benefits slowly unfold!
The Bhagavad Gita says, “Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self.” Thank you
