From Sick To Fit: Transforming Your Health Journey With Actionable Steps
Yoga offers the best of both worlds, whether you're looking for immediate results or long-term wellness. Both of these elements are crucial to fitness since the immediate advantages might help practitioners maintain their motivation for a sustained period of time. Yoga gives you a mental and physical makeover as well as general health and wellbeing. Yoga provides you the complete package; it doesn't just concentrate on the outside appearance. You become physically healthy, enjoy mental well-being in the form of less stress, a more relaxed demeanour, and you also get greater clarity, attention, etc.
Include yoga to experience holistic transformation in the mind, body and spirit.
Yoga Asanas for Physical health
Asanas increase your neural, circulatory, digestive, and reproductive systems as well as your strength training, flexibility, core strength, spinal health, and immune system. Additionally, it helps you stand more straight, which reduces neck, shoulder, and back pain. Constipation, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, and thyroid disorders are all treated as your internal equilibrium is restored. The greatest treatments for depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions are yoga's deep breathing and meditation techniques. Mental Well-being with Pranayama and Meditation
Formation of the Khand Pranayama
• Take a seat in Dandasana, maintain a straight back, and take a few deep breaths.
While in Sukhasana, fold your legs and get your mind ready for the practise.
• Take a comfortable position in your sitting (such as Sukhasan, Vajrasana, Ardhapadmasana, Padmasana, or Siddhasana). Poorna Padmasana is the ideal position.
Put your palms on your knees with the palms facing up (in the Prapthi Mudra) and close your eyes. As you inhale, split the breath into two equal halves.
• Exhale thrice without keeping any air in your lungs.
Super Power Meditation
· To practice this, seat yourself on a peak of the mountain in Sukhasana or any other comfortable pose that gives you the shape of a pyramid.
· The intention is to sit in the shape of triangle atop a mountain.
· In this position, you need to visualize a reverse triangular shield in your chest and then meditate.
· During the meditative process, with every inhale, this shield allows you to welcome all the positive energies of the world into you. And, as you exhale you release unwanted toxins, miseries, and negativity from within you.
This is a highly recommended practice as this influences the rate at which your body can heal itself. Meditation techniques can improve your mood, calm your mind and help relax you.
Prana Mudra
Formation
Sit in a comfortable meditative posture, i.e. Padmasana, Siddhasana, Vajrasana or Sukhasana. If one is not able to sit in any of the above Yogasana, then it can be practiced seated over a chair too. Gently close the eyes and the whole body should be properly relaxed. You can also lie down on your back and perform this mudra.
