Yoga in Every Moment

Yoga doesn't happen only on the mat. Yoga is the state of mind that defines awareness which you carry throughout your every day routines; professional work, cooking, eating, reading, listening, travelling, talking and sleeping too. The regular asana and pranayama practice makes you aware of your body, breath, emotions, thoughts, aches, pleasures and overall, it helps you to connect higher self.

For example, the erect Spine plays very important role in asanas. So try to sit erect all the time whether you are sitting in front of your laptop, TV or chatting with friends in cafe. Sitting erect doesn't mean, you should feel tension in your chest or shoulders. Your posture should be comfortable, easy to enter and you should feel good about it. Watch how you sit, stand, walk or run. If you feel there is some imbalance correct it with yoga. 

Yoga develops mindfulness towards food too. You become conscious of what are you putting in your mouth. You choose the fresh eatables than the food items with additives and preservative. You eat in moderate quantity. However,  it doesn't  mean you starve yourself, you just respect the limits of your stomach. 

Yoga is not only tool to keep your body in shape but it also helps you to put your life on the track. It makes you aware of state of body and mind as i mentioned earlier. Whenever practicing asana, observe where the stretch is coming, which are the body parts are getting involved in that particular asana. This awareness will connect to your body and mind. The healthy body is the instrument to experience all worldly pleasures and inner bliss too.
