Yoga practice, why do Indians invent yoga? is there anything special?
Why did Indians invent yoga? what's so special about it?
This should be a relatively unpopular knowledge, share what I have learned about yoga.
Archaeologists have found that yoga existed as early as 5,000 years ago. Yoga can be divided into four periods: pre-ancient period, middle ancient period, post-ancient period and modern period, or can be divided into
The ancestors of India meditated in the primeval forests of the Himalayas (like our ancient spiritual practice).
And then enter into Indian society and combine with religious philosophy to enhance behavior, belief and knowledge.
Then experience the physical exercise, physical exercise and spiritual experience, in an attempt to achieve the realm of Tao.
Finally, it led to the emergence of "hatha yoga" and spread all over the world.
The word "yoga" comes from Sanskrit, and some books record yoga from 5,000 years ago.At that time, people in India found that animals in the forest could be cured without any treatment, so they observed the potential healing power of the animals and nature themselves, and imitated the application of some of the animals' postures to the human body. it turned out to be an unexpected cure.That's why many yoga exercises are named after nature's animals and plants, such as fish, pigeon, tree, and eagle. Wait.
Early yoga was master-apprentice, and Indian yogis were often homeless, engaged in religious behavior or physical performances, such as circus performers, emphasizing the shortness of the body.
The study also found that ancient yogis sought a divine state of consciousness, equivalent to the bliss experience of the most exciting part of sex, such as the famous "Tan Cui Tantra" (this is not explained much, you can consult relevant materials if you are interested), while Hatha yoga is a branch of Tan Cui, the Sanskrit root is Haas Hath, meaning violence is a relatively mysterious experience..
Later, yoga was gradually transformed, and yoga was transformed to recreate society in a healthy and fitness way.The yoga style is also based on the principle of slowness and calmness, emphasizing maintaining the same posture for a long time, learning how to relax even when bending, contracting, and handstand, advocating that his improved yoga is especially suitable for women.
Because ofMany research reports and experiments have proved that yoga brings very positive benefits to body and mind.Including the psychological aspect, plus it is no longer limited to the mysterious practice in India, and it is no longer mistaken for yoga that it is difficult to fold the limbs.
Hatha yoga has become a popular health exercise all over the world, providing a beautiful image that allows modern people to enter the "stillness of movement" through body stretching and breathing regulation, but yoga will be widely promoted, and there is a more desirable realm, that is, fromThe expansion of consciousness.
Yoga has its own rules and learning priorities, forming different factions and priorities. Yoga emphasizes breath control and internal re-awareness of body posture, which is helpful to the body and mind.Far beyond track and field, aerobics and other sports, studies have pointed out that yoga does contribute to high blood pressure, osteoporosis, stress and depression.
What is yoga?
What is yoga? I think for individuals, the meaning of yoga is a way to get to know yourself. Through physical movements to adjust the heart, through the adjustment of the heart to perceive the present, and then perceive themselves, perceive the real world.What I particularly like is the feeling of being refreshed and refreshed after full-time practice, and the feeling that the scenery around me has become clearer, but it is impossible to find it.
Yoga is a matter of opinion.
For me, yoga
First of all, it's a sport.
Practicing yoga is a very important part of life.
Improve your control and awareness of your body by practicing again and again
After long and correct practice, you can not only keep healthy.
You can also have a beautiful and handsome appearance.
After all, the greatest pride now is: people of the same age are together, he says to the old potato, you are still young (the picture comes from the Internet)
The second is a kind of mentality.
Yoga is of great help to peace of mind and tolerance, while paying attention to the present, accepting your imperfections and opening up your mind in the process of practicing yoga.
People who often practice yoga have a tolerant and peaceful state of mind.
Have your own views on things, but don't force them (pictures come from the Internet)
The last way of life
With the improvement of living standards
Sedentary people and Phubber can be found everywhere.
The problems are poor blood circulation of lower extremities, muscle relaxation, shoulder and neck strain and so on.
On the other hand, people who practice yoga often carry out intensive training for tense parts.
And most of them are sitting like bells and standing loosely in life.
After all, yoga has become a habit throughout life. (the picture comes from the Internet)
So, yoga is a beautiful seed in my life.
No matter how hard life is, bloom a flower.
Personal opinion, welcome to correct
I am Chen Yoga. Follow me and join me in Yoga.
Yoga, which originated in ancient India, is one of the six philosophical schools in ancient India, exploring the truth and method of "the unity of the Vatican and the self". What modern people call yoga is mainly a series of methods of self-cultivation and mental cultivation.
Yoga is divided into two categories: classical yoga, modern yoga, and now positive yoga.
Yoga posture uses ancient and easy-to-master skills to improve people's physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual ability. it is a way of exercise to achieve the harmony of body, mind and spirit. including posture, breath, meditation, etc., in order to achieve the unity of body and mind.
To put it simply, yoga is a dynamic exercise in physiology and a practice in mind, which controls the body by combining the senses, the body and conscious breathing. These techniques are not only good for muscle and bone exercise, but also strengthen the function of the nervous system, endocrine glands and major organs, and promote health by stimulating the body's potential energy.
The state of the body's nervous system, endocrine glands and major organs determines a person's health. Regular yoga practice helps to relieve mental stress and physical decline caused by neglect of physical health or early aging. Therefore, practicing yoga can maintain vitality and make your mind clear.
Yoga includes stretching, strength, endurance and cardiopulmonary exercises, promotes physical health, has the function of coordinating the whole body, and learning how to make the body work healthily also increases the vitality of the body. In addition, the cultivation of spiritual harmony and emotional stability also guides you to improve your physical, emotional, psychological and mental state, so that your body is balanced and healthy.
What is yoga?
The master will tell you: yoga is the connection, the unity of the Vatican and the self. Beginners will tell you: yoga is fitness, is exercise, yoga can shape and lose weight. Some people will tell you that yoga is stretching. Everyone has a different yoga in mind.
What is yoga? For me, it's changing all the time.
In the first yoga theory class, the teacher told me that yoga is a connection, and the ultimate goal is to achieve the unity of the Vatican and the self. I wonder if yoga is theology, just like becoming a Buddha and practicing immortals in China.
With my own practice, I feel that yoga is a kind of balance. This balance covers all aspects.
In terms of yoga asana: the balance of physical strength and flexibility. Stable and flexible balance of joints. The balance on both sides of the body.
From my heart: yearning for advanced asana and practicing the balance of basic asana year after year can also be said to be a balance between ideal and reality.
Now it is found that yoga is a way of life. You will bring everything from your yoga class, consciously and unconsciously, to your life. It is an imperceptible influence, just as if you stay in an environment for a long time, you will become a part of the environment.
In terms of posture: sitting, standing, walking, and even lying down will pay attention to posture and maintain a positive, healthy and balanced posture. This is why many people say that people who practice yoga look different from others. Among other things, her requirements for posture are subconsciously engraved in her mind.
From the bottom of your heart: you will use yoga to deal with people and deal with others. Let me give you a few examples.
1. "stretch gently at the edge of the body, do asanas within your ability, do what you can, and don't pull hard." I'm sure you've all heard this sentence. In life is to try our best to do one thing, to do well every step, but the result is not forced. If you succeed, be grateful; if you fail, sum up the experience and continue next time. Don't ask, don't be discouraged.
2. "everyone's body is different, do not compare, do not force themselves to complete postures that cannot be completed temporarily, and accept themselves." You should have heard this sentence. It is the same in life, accept your shortcomings, strive to change your shortcomings, and enjoy the process of changing them. Be open to your flawed self. Not only to yourself, to your family, to your friends, to your children.
3. "when a pose cannot be completed, we can use aids. Using a compound tool does not mean that we cannot do it, but only for a better understanding of the pose." It's the same in life. I don't think I need to explain this.
4 "pay attention to breathing and body when keeping asana." The same is true in life, when doing anything, focus on what you are doing, do not think about it, you will find that the world is very simple.I think if you figure this out, you won't have insomnia. Why do you have insomnia? You think too much when it's time to go to bed. You forget that your task now is to sleep.
For now, yoga is life for me. The wisdom of yoga is the wisdom of life. Live with the wisdom and way of thinking of yoga, you will find that life is very simple, very happy, easy to be satisfied, but we are also positive, motivated, hard, not afraid to pay sweat.
You can have a try. The next time you face difficulties in life, when you can't control your emotions, when your business is bad, when you're lovelorn, when you encounter setbacks, or when you get carried away, think of the breathing, patience, tolerance, and relaxation on the yoga mat. You will suddenly feel relaxed.
Pay attention to Fanyi and share health and beauty.
Before I finished writing and publishing, I habitually looked at an article to see if there were any typos and sentence inconsistencies, and suddenly found that if one day I stopped writing yoga, it would be very fresh to write chicken soup.
