Breathe in Yoga, Yoga in Breath


Looking at the sky today, I wondered why is it, a deep breath comes in when we look up?!! There wasn't an answer. But I know there is an answer which my limited mind cannot comprehend at the moment. Sigh..!! ** Thou O -Enlightenment, empower me soonest!! **

Yoga is a way of living for me, most of the day though! Few days still I stay without that way of living and believe me I know it's wrong! Any guesses how? - Because every time I do it, I experience its new level of depth! Today after doing two rounds of Padm Sadhana I experienced how beautifully the breath helped me at each stage.

How many people reflect on the fact that - "without a slightest effort by one, breath runs life for each living being?!" Contemplate how great this power packet can be, if we direct/ channelize and put little effort in rhythmic way can bring what results?! I tell you, it will be humongous and far from your imagination at this moment. In YOGA when we align poses in the rhythm of the breath, the Asanas are more stable, longer and slowly you will find that breath is taking you deeper into the posture, without much effort from you. Which in turn releases stress and brings more and more relaxation.

Sri Sri Ravishankar says - "Yoga, Pranayama and Meditation can heal everything", I have experienced deep healing with sessions of Yoga followed by a guided meditation, and to my surprise each time it does wonder! Experience the liberation from negative emotions and chain of unwanted thoughts, give yourself a 15 min power pack yoga session finishing with a joyful meditation. Do share your experiences, it makes me rich!

Happy Breathing and Stretching!!

Smiling World to You!!
