5 Ways Yoga Can Help You Live a Peaceful Life
Yoga helps liberate your body, mind & soul. Whatever you may be looking for–weight loss, strong & flexible body, glowing beautiful skin, peaceful mind or good health– yoga can offer it.
Most of the time people misunderstand yoga as “Asanas” only. They do not realize the positive impact yoga offers in uniting the body, mind & breathe. Hence, people should be reminded of this life quote related to time:
“The body is your temple, keep it pure & clean for the soul to reside in. ” – BKS Iyenger
Through this writing, we can take a look at the top five reasons why yoga is an important inspiration for us:
- Internal Health / Mental Peace: Yoga is one of the best ways to calm a disturbed mind. As we all know “ Yogis are peaceful indeed. ” The proper practice of yoga does help us to reach that zone of ultimate peace. Just like the reality that not all diseases are visible, there are signs that something could be off in our internal health. People who do yoga, often find that they treat their body differently including making better food choices, maximizing sleep & practicing self-love.
- Art of Fitness – Flexible Body & Good Posture: Including yoga in our daily routine leads to a more flexible body as well as good posture when you stand, sit, sleep & walk. Yoga also strengthens our joints & muscles as well as allowing you to be flexible enough to live & enjoy life and all its adventures.
- Energy Level – Touches the Peak Point: The rat race of our daily life makes us more exhausted at the end of the day. In addition, we are susceptible to the effect of growing pollution. Just a few minutes of yoga can be like a dose of fresh air. It can provide immense energy even after a long hectic day.
- Cut a Few Extra Inches – The Weight Loss Mission: Yoga is considered as a form of aerobic fitness training because the body moves through a series of postures for an extended period of time. It strains the cardiorespiratory system, making you use more energy to keep the body going as a super fit unit and sometimes helping you lose weight.
- Ignite an Extra Portion of Love in Your Togetherness: Nowadays too many relationships end where fights, arguments and disagreements leave one or both parties without the opportunity to completely heal. If we don’t heal our wounds, we are bound to carry strong emotional baggage that can sometimes be disastrous for the longevity of a sacred loving partnership. Yoga heals us. It teaches us self-acceptance. If we can find self-awareness, self-accepting & self-loving ability in ourselves, then and only then are we ready to enter into a relationship with another without any baggage of pain from the past. Yoga can help us accomplish this.
