What is the meaning of yoga? The style of Hatha yoga. Can do it alone? A look at a yoga class<\/strong>. Yoga at home and on the beach. The space doesn\u2019t have to be large, but it should be clean and well ventilated. Each trainee has to try to cultivate an attitude of awareness, game and acceptance. Be aware of any physical sensations, emotions and thoughts that arise. Reach your practice with a sense of curiosity, rather than criticism or competition. Keep your motivation stable and do practice regularly with your teacher of yoga.<\/p>\n Sadhana.
\n<\/strong>The word yoga comes from the Sanskrit root “yuj” and means “union of mind and body.” The most popular form of yoga in the West is Hatha yoga (ha = sun, tha = moon), which is defined as the Yoga that unifies pairs of opposites. It is the practical part of the philosophy of yoga, which includes physical exercise. In Hatha yoga we place the body in a constant, comfortable positions -the asanas-, to empower and release the body of tension. In yoga both sides of the body \u00abwork” in the same way giving symmetry straighter spine and balance to the functioning of the nervous system.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>While it is normal for us to call Hatha yoga the softer style with slow pace, the truth is that this is the yoga form that has prevailed in the West. Hatha Yoga has many styles, like Ashtanga, Anusara, Iyengar, Kripalu, Satyananda, which differ mainly in the way, the number and intensity with which the exercises are performed. Some are gentle and slow, others more rapid. However, the fact that a yoga style is characterized mild, this does not mean that it lacks intensity (for example the trainee may perspire and feel that he or she “works” hard their body). In other words the yoga style, and the way it looks to an exterior observer has \u00a0no relation to what is really needed by the practitioner, so it is necessary to experiment with different styles (for example six months) in order to choose the one that finally suits us.
\nWhat benefits us?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\nThere are special yoga classes for pregnant women (with the consent of the gynecologist). Yoga for pregnant women can relieve the pain of the waist and improve the mobility of women. It can also facilitate childbirth. Note that there is a children’s yoga, which gives emphasis on gentle exercises and movements which imitate animals so as to be pleasant for the children<\/li>\n
\nLack of movement, obesity, hyperactivity, lack of concentration, audacity, boredom and an ever-growing wave of mental and physical disorders have appeared majestically in the Greek children’s arena. Tranquility and relaxation is something that parents do not realize that their child needs more because children are the most sensitive receivers of in any external disharmony.
\nThe nervous children are not the exception but the rule today, and they react strongly with voices, nerves, screaming and isolation .Yoga can greatly help the child to calm down, concentrate and gain confidence. The child ceases to be vulnerable and uncertain about his skills, self-discipline and easily with the present problems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n<\/strong>Although the ultimate goal is to practice yoga alone, it is preferable to make the first lessons under the guidance of the teacher. In that way, we will understand the basic principles of yoga and the correct way to perform exercises.<\/p>\n
\nAt first the teacher asks practitioners to sit with eyes closed, paying attention to their breath, so as to relax and to connect with yoga in the present moment.
\nThe asanas\u00a0 are following \u00a0Initially are mild and gradually they become more intense. An Important role throughout the duration of the exercises plays the rhythm of breathing, which the teacher explains and constantly reminds to the trainees. Depending on the level of the trainee, the exercises vary in degree of difficulty.
\nGradually, the asanas become slower, so as to prepare the trainees for the phase of meditation.
\nHere’s savasana follows\u00a0 and completes each yoga session, during which the teacher lowers the lighting in the room. In savasana, the trainee lies down and stays for 5-10 minutes back, with hands on the side.<\/p>\n

<\/strong>We do not need much to start yoga at home. Select or create a quiet space in your home for your practice and equip it with the some supplements of yoga: mattress, blanket, and pillow<\/p>\n
\nEach\u00a0 beginner has to set realistic goals, starting with short periods of exercise (30-45 minutes). Start with a basic sequence of exercises and ask a personal exercise program (sadhana) from your teacher of yoga.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>The sadhana is the personal effort you make to develop your physical and mental capacities, in a program of yogic practices that fits with your development point at a particular stage of your life.
\nThe sadhana can be any practice or group practices one trainee achieves to obtain a specific result, such as to overcome a specific health issue, to achieve better physical condition, memory or concentration or just to improve himself \/herself generally.<\/p>\n
