Five points of Yoga - 1. Proper Exercise
Proper Exercise acts as a lubricating routine to the joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons and other parts of the body by increasing circulation and flexibility.
Yoga physical exercise is called 'asana', a term which means steady pose. The aim for advanced practitioners is to hold each pose for a period of time so that they benefit fully from the healing properties of the asanas.
However, initially our aim is to increase body flexibility, in particular increasing the strength and flexibility of the spine - therefore increasing circulation and delivering plenty of nutrients and oxygen to the nerves.
Asanas also work on the internal organs by massaging them, flushing accumulated toxins and old blood out and letting a flow of fresh blood in. By performing asanas the endocrine system - glands and hormones - is rejuvenated, helping to balance emotions and improve the mental outlook in life.
Hand in hand with asanas, we practice deep breathing and concentration of the mind. This helps us detach the mind from the objects of the senses and draw it inward, free it from all distractions and keep it under control.
Asanas are not just a set of physical exercise that keeps our body fit, practicing asanas goes beyond the surface of the physical body into the locomotor, nervous, hormonal, respiratory, cardiovascular and digestive systems. Rejuvenates and revitalises all aspects of our body and mind.
