Five Points of Yoga

Proper Exercise (Asanas) – Yoga poses help develop a strong, healthy body by enhancing flexibility and improving circulation.

Proper Breathing (Pranayama) – Deep, conscious breathing reduces stress and many diseases.

Proper Relaxation – Helps keep the body from going into overload mode, easing worry and fatigue.

Proper Diet – Eating simple, healthy and vegetarian foods that are easy to digest notably have a positive effect on the mind and body, as well as the environment and other living beings.

Positive Thinking (Vedanta) and Meditation (Dhyana) – These are the true keys to achieving peace of mind and eliminating negativity in our lives.

For the summer, please remember point 3— Proper relaxation! Strangely, this is often the one we leave out in our busy lives…..
