There is a pile-up of suppressed emotions that the mind just cannot access and as a result, the joy of living is diminished. It is important to release these emotions in time lest they manifest into physical and mental ailments. One of the most effective ways to navigate through tough emotions is Yoga. Over the period of time, we store difficult, traumatic experiences, uncomfortable feelings in our brain, and since many a time we do not give sufficient time to these emotions or suppress it, they start seeping in deeper and deeper into our consciousness. Soon enough, it is difficult […]

Embrace yoga to free yourself from the web of unhealthy habits

By Himanshu Joshihealth, human bodyhealing, health, meditation, mind and body, yoga

Couch potato and lazybones are no longer part of urban colloquial language and have become quite common. With the nature of jobs fast-changing, physical work in day-to-day activities is coming down. Penetration of technology has given rise to a sedentary lifestyle resulting in so many common diseases.

Instilling basics of yoga early on

By Himanshu Joshihealth, human body, Yoga100 hour yoga, basic yoga, introduction of yoga, yoga

Small drops of water make an ocean. Life is also like a mammoth water body that collects every nugget or drop of experience in its belly and gives birth to our current reality. It can be compared to a jigsaw puzzle where only one piece can be seen in its entirety unless we find all the pieces. While seeing the complete picture is not in our hands, making every piece of the puzzle worthwhile is in our control. Childhood is the perfect time to work on a person, to imbibe the right samskaras that become the building blocks to adult life. A calm, collected and focussed mind is not achieved in a matter of days, weeks, or even months. It’s a lifelong process and the intention has to be set […]

Eating right to control your thoughts By Yogi Himanshu

By Himanshu JoshiYogic Food

While having a measured meal is a good idea, the body always knows its requirement and instantly gives a signal on over-eating or undereating. The food we eat is used by the body and mind. The excess food accumulates in the body and is the cause of a number of lifestyle issues such as high blood pressure, diseases of kidney and liver, and sleep disorders. Fresh fruits, freshly-cooked vegetables, non-spicy foods, all are part of sattvic diet and recommended if you are striving towards a peaceful way of life. Pure and sattvic food has a calming effect on the mind besides nourishing the body. It keeps you focused, and helps eliminate negative thoughts. Rajasic and tamasic food do not support yogic life and considerably negate the benefits of asanas and […]
