It is now an open secret that the will of the mind has enabled people to achieve extraordinary physical feats, which proves beyond doubt the mind and body connection.

Yoga through meditation works remarkably to achieve this harmony and helps the mind work in sync with the body. In fact yoga = meditation, because both work together in achieving the common goal of unity of mind, body and spirit – a state of eternal bliss.

The meditative practices through yoga help in achieving an emotional balance through detachment. What it means is that meditation creates conditions, where you are not affected by the happenings around you. This in turn creates a remarkable calmness and a positive outlook,
which also has tremendous benefits on the physical health of the body.

These are just some of the tangible benefits that can be achieved through yoga. The most important benefit of yoga is physical and mental therapy. To get the maximum benefits of yoga one has to combine the practices of yogasanas, pranayama and meditation. Students were enthusiastic and interacted with the expert . They promised to control their anger and are looking forward to add to their knowledge in the next sessions.

Attitudes

2009-12-22T11:52:00.002+01:00

"Either we own our attitude; or our attitude owns us"
Everything begins and ends with our attitude.
It can lift us up to great heights or pull us down to the depths of failure.
It can energize us to do and say all the right things at the right time, or it can undermine our motivation and cause us to sabotage our own best laid plans.

In fact, it is the foundation for everything that happens - to us, - around us, or - within us.

Attitude ... The key ingredient for success.

Adversity

2009-12-22T11:45:00.002+01:00

- a time when all our resources are tested.
- a time when life seems unfair

Adversity is part of everyone's life.
The question is how do we handle it.

Some have used such test and hardships as opportunity for growth; while others have turned away and allowed these experiences to destroy their hopes.
