Yoga Health Management

Submitted by: Sudhacar Polisetti

Apart from these when people actively seek to reduce the stress in their lives by consoling the mind. The body often works to heal itself. Here, yoga can be seen not only as a way to get into shape on several levels, but also as a tool for self-healing. In today s world of information and inter planetary voyages most of the people find it difficult to devote time towards their health and fitness. This has led to drastic increase in health problems. During 1950 s infectious diseases were the leading killers, today s health problems are mostly related to life style.

Cardiovascular, heart disease, stroke, and chronic lung disease, diabetes, cirrhosis of liver, suicide and several forms of cancer are all related to unhealthy lifestyle and behaviour. At one point of time or the other, a doctor comes into the scene in every individual s life. Yoga is self-diagnostic, healing prevention and maintenance. Although it is not replacement of a doctor, yet it has been practiced safely and successfully by millions of people who never had doctors. With the help of yoga, the doctor and the individual can both monitor the progress and the doctor will definitely learn from individual how beneficial yoga really is.

In the context of self-diagnosis yoga postures and exercises can be easily done and that too with minimal possible effort. The magic of yoga is that the moment we begin basic stretches we can immediately discover our deficiencies. We can do yoga, as perfectly as possible with a modest amount of care and patience, yoga triggers our body s natural adaptive and rejuvenating powers. Some people even claim that yoga gave them more vitality than they ever had in their lives. Even those who began later in life also benefited from its practice.

As for athletes or sports persons, yoga is a powerful enhancement in regular training exercises. Adding yoga in a routine training programme helps develop strength, flexibility, range of motion, concentration, and cardio vascular health and reduces stress, tension and tightness. The most significant benefit of adding yoga to a training programme is its effect on performance. Some people think it is divine, others find it positively addictive and a powerfully effective substitute for negative habits. Whether borne of inspiration or by trial and error, yoga techniques substitute for the kinds of activities our early human ancestors must have done in the course of just living. It is pretty to say that if we still hung around trees all our lives, then 70% to 90% of us would not end up suffering from chronic back, neck and head pain.

Obviously it takes time for our body to stick itself in here and fill out there. Tissues have to grow. Others need to shrink. This is why it is important to drink lots of water and eat wholesome food along with regular moderate exercise. In challenging those muscles to remodel themselves, we are literally clearing out lots of junks from our tissues.

The essence of yoga is to make the process of life as efficient and enjoyable as possible. In this process it is essential that we learn not only what the stretches are, but how to stretch, how to relax and how to breathe etc. Then we will be ready to work out safely. Yoga does not remove the qualities of genuine, wholesomeness, compassion, but rather instills them within us. It teaches us that love heals the giver at least as much as it does the recipient. In addition therein dwells the sacred power of community, union, harmony, yoga and free and fair civilisation. It is a sign of our wisdom if we use it, our enlightenment if we share it.

As we start practising simple asanas we will immediately find out what needs attention. The effects are immediate and the results keep coming more apparently. The longer and more often we engage in the pure self-indulgent healing art of yoga, the more it will have a healing effect on us. Yoga is no less magical than the power of life itself. It unlocks life s wonder and unleashes hidden energies. Through this art everyone can experience the Divine and enjoy the ecstasy of freedom from pain and ignorance apart from other gracious rewards like longevity and happiness. It has taken time for us to wind ourselves up in a knot. Naturally it takes time to unravel. If we are still breathing, it is never too late to start yoga.
