Yoga And Meditation

Yoga And Meditation

By practicing yoga and meditation, we systematically observe, understand, accept and train each of the levels of our living being, so that we may synchronize and assimilate those aspects of ourselves and dwell in the undeviating experience of the core of consciousness.

Dr. Robert Puff explains the entire process of meditation in practical terms and in simple language. Yoga and meditation are not mutually exclusive, since the reality is “Yoga is meditation.” However, we use the terms yoga and meditation to differentiate between them and to explore the belief that yoga is only about physical body postures. Yoga and meditation, in combination, is one complete meditative process unto itself. The yoga body postures are just one of many possible forms of memditation, though yoga relates to meditation ofthe physical body.

Our body is a projection of our mind. The mind is the place where all of our experiences, dreams, memories, addictions, anger, fears and disappointments are stored. The mind sends signals to the body in order to enable it to relax and function more efficiently. Generally, people blame others or circumstances for their reactions; it is our understanding of events that creates our realities. Yoga and meditation are the effective way to change your thinking. The change takes place when you practice on a regular basis. Meditation helps you in creating a positive habitat around yourself.

The meditation helps in providing discipline and works with the poses in Yoga, which were designed to prepare the mind for a relaxed state. In yoga, posture is very important. Sitting on the floor may be very difficult because people are used to sitting in chairs. Closing your eyes helps with concentrating on your breath. You must sit comfortably and observe your breathing without any stress. Meditation will help you to silence your mind. Yoga and meditation are totally dependent upon the observation of proper breathing. Breathing is a main part of meditation, so if you want to reap the benefits of meditation, you need to make sure that you are maintaining a steady breath. You have to release yourself from your thoughts, and focus your concentration on breathing.
