It is to see our 'body'. it's a meditation on 'Self'. Ayurveda is not just information on diet and cleansing, rather it's a meditation on 'Self'. The foundation principle of Ayurveda is 'health' verses 'illness' and during this study you will receive a comprehensive introduction of Ayurveda, then analyze 'prakrtti', our natural state and 'vikrtti', our unbalanced state.
With this clarity you can start developing simple and effective ways in your daily life to bring yourself and family from imbalance to balanced health, and then to maintain your natural state of health. The ancient 'Seers' used meditation to see, like an modern x-ray machine tries to see. Self study allows us to see ourself ~ our body, emotions and mind. As we develop these abilities to 'see' we then naturally develop the ability to 'purify'. This makes our journey easier to travel and gives us a greater sense of clarity to make more healthier choices in our personal, family and business life. Yoga and Ayurveda are the transformational tools to enlighten and the time proven Teachings of Patanjali will enhance your life, helping you 'shine' and reach your highest potential. http://www.yogaawareness.com/en-social/ayurveda-faq-s/470-what-is-ayurveda

Discomfort or pain will disturb the mind and take away from the positive experience of the asana. We have a funny view of the path towards growth in the west, this 'no pain, no gain' mentality, which is completely off from what we are trying to accomplish in Yoga Awareness classes. You must instead work with awareness towards your own edge.
If your body is experiencing discomfort or pain it will disturb the mind and take away from the positive experience of the asana. It also can be counter productive to overstretch the body in any given asana. It is important that we remember this as we work through each yoga class with a level of attention without tension, and comfort without slackness. It is the space between the extremes that you will find the most beneficial state in which to practice. http://www.yogaawareness.com

Yoga works at a therapeutic level of releasing tension, aligning your spine and moving prana (energy) throughout your entire body.

A stable mind and a healthy body. When a person is balanced physically, emotionally and mentally we often see him/her radiating.

It was a fresh experience: I could feel and tell which part of the body was difficult to stretch and comfortable. Surprised that I got sweat a lot! Very focused during the practice. My breathing deepened and my mind got clear.
とっても新鮮でした。あーこのあたりは伸びにくくなっているなぁとか、これも心地良いなぁとか。 ものすごく汗をかいたのでビックリ! とても集中してできました。 呼吸も深まって頭がクリアになった気がします。
