This DVD provides you with the brief or concise info on the vast field of yoga and Pranayama. This explains how it all began and when it began how this evolved into as it is today. It explains that in the beginning it was just a means of keeping yourself healthy and in tranquility with the nature but now it has evolved into a way of being in harmony with the nature as well as have peace of mind along with healthy body. This has also greatly evolved in terms that it is also being used for the purpose of treatment as well as prevention of various acute as well as chronic diseases. This thus illustrates Pranayama as well as yoga separate but yet stating both of them to be synergistic to each other.
Yoga brings about excellent toning of the muscles. Yoga produces harmony in mind with the body and this result in benefits of health. Yoga through meditation works remarkably to achieve this harmony and helps the mind work in synchronous with the body. Moreover, stress which is known to produce damage to all parts of our physical, endocrinal and emotional systems can be corrected through yoga practice of meditation. In fact yogic meditation, works together in achieving the common goal of unity of mind, body and spirit – a state of eternal bliss.
The meditative practices through yoga help in achieving an emotional balance through detachment. This in turn creates a remarkable calmness and a positive outlook, which also has tremendous benefits on the physical health of the body. The ultimate goal of the yoga thus is “self realization” or “enlightenment”. Yoga positions or asanas provide you with fitness with the least metabolism or stress and meditation in turn provides you with the strength and will to perform these asanas. Yoga also helps in the attainment of complete detoxification. Stretching muscles and joints as well as massaging the various organs, yoga ensures the optimum blood supply to various parts of the body. This helps in the flushing out of toxins from every part as well as providing nourishment. This leads to benefits such as delayed ageing, a boost in the levels of energy and life filled with health.
Yogic breathing or Pranayam is the fourth limb of stage of yoga that comes after asanas or postures. Prana has several meanings as breath, respiration, life, vitality, wind, energy and strength while yama is restraint or discipline. The control of prana leads to the control of mind which is vital for concentration and meditation which is the next step in yoga. But yogi breathing is also recognized as a way to refresh and rejuvenate all the body systems. In yoga breath is used to direct the flow of prana in the body. And as the blood circulates through the whole body it carries prana in it all over the body. So breathing is life since it is the most vital function of our body. Similarly in yoga too breathing has a great importance since yogic asanas or postures are mainly performed in accordance with breathing. Almost all yogic postures involve breathing control stimulating activities in body.
Yoga is an alternative system of healing, its power being widely harnessed to prevent and treat various diseases produced in any part of the body. Yoga is undoubtedly a reliable avenue for holistic health. Disease is a manifestation of underlying disharmony in the mind- body domain. Yogic way of life offers a solution to elevate the health of body, mind and soul. Yoga is a cure for many chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity and psychiatric illnesses. Yoga has an important role in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases that includes recurrence of heart attacks, hypertension and coronary heart diseases. Yoga influences the hypothalamus directly, the area of the brain that controls endocrine activity, and helps prevent heart attacks. A complete yoga program involves exercises (asanas), breath control (Pranayama), sleep control (yoga Nidra) and mind control (meditation). The curative benefits of yoga enhances heart health, lowers blood pressure, reduces chronic stress, boosts the immune system and enhances cognitive ability. And when all of these positive aspects are working on the body it will eventually produce a healthy mind, body and soul.
