We are in a fast world with the statement of “I didn’t have time “, which detaches oneself from body awareness. It leads to fluctuations in brain and body functions that are the cause of most of the diseases today.
Everyone knows yoga is good for health, but how is it a therapy? Yoga Guru BKS Iyengar says “The Pillars of yoga Therapy are the physician (sage Patanjali), Asanas (medication), Yoga Instructor (attendant) and the student (patient). In our day-to-day life we don’t use certain body parts often. So, blood flow is lacking in certain body parts. Enough nutrition is not delivered in all our cells.
While doing certain asana sequence as per ailments, the specific body parts are stretched & others blocked. So, an enormous amount of blood is transferred to the nook & corner of the body parts which rejuvenates the cells and repairs the damaged ones. It helps to alleviate the suffering & pain.
Yoga Improves morale & self-confidence. It increases the threshold of pain & endurance. Yoga is not only to cure one’s symptoms but also to target its cause.
Asanas are based on stretching, bending, rotating and relaxing, which creates diverse effects and purifying one’s body. Yoga Guru BKS Iyengar says, “Yoga is a combination of physiotherapy, psychotherapy and spiritual therapy”. Asanas divert & control blood flow by means of holding a posture that allows the organs to absorb fresh healing blood and energy.
Dr. T. Bala Subramaniam says, “Food control is a part of Yoga Therapy. Good food gives enough nutrition. It fasts the healing process”.
Satvic foods heal body and mind and create clarity & thoughts. Many of the students benefited from AMRUTHA HEALTH CARE YOGA CENTRE.
