<content:encoded><![CDATA[If there is something unbelievably effective in supporting your mental and spiritual health, it is Yoga! No wonder, why it is highly recommended for a holistic well-being. Whether you want to lose weight, reduce stress, improve strength and immunity or want to boost your spiritual health, practicing yoga will be utterly beneficial. Yes! You can expect a better mental and spiritual health with Yoga. If you have spiritual growth plan in mind, <a href="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">start practicing Yoga</a>.
So, if you feel emotionally wreaked and overwhelmed by certain thoughts or emotions, practicing yoga is the best thing you can do. Given here are three ways Yoga can support your spiritual health. 
<h2>It Brings Down Physical and Emotional Stress:</h2>
There is nothing new about people counting on Yoga for bringing down their stress levels. Exhaling and Inhaling exercises can calm down your nerves and can help you heal from inside. When you indulge in Yoga exercises, you need to wade off all your thoughts and focus on your inner core. This is helpful in eliminating all the negative thoughts and situations that have been stressful to you all through the day.
Yoga asanas like Sukhasana and Balasna relax you completely and uplift your mood. So, you can expect to have better thoughts and lesser stress with regular Yoga exercises. This promotes your spiritual growth.
<h2>You Connect With Your Inner Self:</h2>
When you practice Yoga, you would have a better control on yourself. Various types of Yoga asanas infuse positivity in you. It activates your chakras and replaces your negative thoughts with the positive ones.
When the chakras in your body get activated with the constant practice of Yoga asanas, you begin to feel better. Not only this, it improves your flexibility and strength. Deep <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/breathing-exercise" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">breathing exercises</a> help you connect to your inner self and improve your sleep patterns.
<h3>It Improves Your Breathing Techniques:</h3>
A well-known yogic breathing technique known as “Pranayama” is the very foundation of yogic breathing and a must-include in <a href="https://spiritualgrowthevents.com/spiritual-growth-plan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">spiritual growth plan</a>. Pranayama is integrated into all the forms and types of Yoga. When you work out on your breathing techniques, your energy levels get improved and you begin to feel relaxed. This relaxes your muscles and increases your energy levels drastically. Practicing Yoga on a regular basis improves your lung capacity and breathing. It is also good for the people suffering from asthma.
Essence of Yoga is to set unison between the mind, soul and body. Through a series of breathing techniques by certain Yoga asanas you can achieve a high level of mindfulness. Once you begin to practice Yoga on a regular basis, you will have a better immunity, reduced level of depression and better mental health. This improves your spiritual health and makes a better you. So, Yoga is not actually for weight loss or for cutting down stress level. It can make an amazing change to your spiritual health as well.
It heals your inner self as the result of which will have a better body, better mental and spiritual health.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The word Gyro means circular or turn and kinesis means movement or activity. The Gyrokinesis Method is usually well-practiced on a mat and chair, without any machine or equipment. Therefore, without the feedback and guidance of the right equipment, students in a Gyrokinesis session are more dependent on their understanding of the body movements. Gyrokinesis is considered as designed to increase your range of motion, strength, and movement efficiency.
In Gyrokinesis, movement patterns and rehab exercises gently work on the joints and muscles through rhythmic and undulating exercises. The physical postures are gently and smoothly connected through the use of breath. This makes exercises appear and feel more like a dance than the <a href="http://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com">yoga practice</a>.
If you check the Pilates, the focuses will be on key alignment issues. It uses your muscular, skeletal, and nervous systems simply to re-educate movement patterns within the body. The Gyrotonic System focuses on your muscles, fascia, skeletal and nervous systems as well as your entire energetic body. Gyrotonic classes are usually conducted as private sessions or in a small group class. 
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-6415" src="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gyrokinesis-class-min.jpg" alt="gyrokinesis class" width="789" height="526" srcset="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gyrokinesis-class-min.jpg 1200w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gyrokinesis-class-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gyrokinesis-class-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gyrokinesis-class-min-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 789px) 100vw, 789px" />
Let us see what is the peculiarity of the Gyrotonic System. Gyrotonic is considered a unique system of exercise that usually incorporates movement principles from yoga, t’ai chi, dance, gymnastics, and swimming. This kind of Gyrotonic System is usually made as part of a wooden frame. This setup allows the exerciser to strengthen their muscles through a specific exercise that can be incorporating circular and spiraling movement patterns. 
<h2>Hence Fitness researchers have found that Gyrotonic System is a complete system of effective exercising: </h2>
<ul>
<li>Articulates your joints, </li>
<li>Improves the flow of energy through the physical body, </li>
<li>Stimulates acupuncture pressure points, </li>
<li>Builds up the stamina and the strength and </li>
<li>Improves the health of the whole body.</li>
</ul>
<h2>The Gyrokinesis Method is a movement method (which usually circular or turns):</h2>
<ul>
<li>Which addresses the entire physical body, </li>
<li>Opening the energy pathways, </li>
<li>Stimulating the nervous system, </li>
<li>Increasing the range of motion, and </li>
<li>Developing and creating functional strength through rhythmic, flowing movement sequences.</li>
</ul>
The machine part which is The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® was developed by Romanian-born Hungarian Juliu Horvath. Juliu Horvath was born in 1942 in a small town Temesvar, in Romania. Juliu’s love for movement was apparent from the time when he was a small child who later designed this Gyrotonic System.
The history of Gyrotonic is interesting. Initially, Gyro was practiced seated on a chair or mat, without any equipment, and called “Gyrokinesis.” Then, the creator Juliu Horvath designed a simple machine with a pulley system. And he made this machine to mimic your body’s natural movement, which became Gyrotonic. This machine helps people learn the complicated movement pathways, and provides resistance to build strength. But at the same time, there are tons of Gyrokinesis exercises one can do without the machine also.
Most of the Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis classes in Europe and America are unique forms of exercise devised by Julio Horvath from Hungary. The system was developed and structured using key movement principles from yoga, Tai Chi, gymnastics, dance, and swimming. Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis will enhance structural fitness, range of joint and muscle motion, coordination, and strength while achieving grace and the mind-body connection.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-6417" src="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/flex1311.jpg" alt="" width="831" height="554" srcset="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/flex1311.jpg 968w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/flex1311-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/flex1311-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 831px) 100vw, 831px" />
<h2>Both Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis classes aim to balance the chakras and re-energize the body systems. The main benefits are:</h2>
<ul>
<li>It promotes the flow of Chi (energy) through the body, including the organs and the nervous system. </li>
<li>This is usually achieved by stimulating the flow of blood and lymph and correcting dysfunctional patterns of the muscular and skeletal systems. </li>
<li>A key benefit of Gyrotonic System is that which is assisted by a machine, and</li>
<li>In Gyrokinesis, which is often performed in a group, there is the release of excessive tension which often inhibits functional movement.</li>
</ul>
The immensity of exercising using The Gyrotonic System during pregnancy provides the perfect system for the pre partum or postpartum woman by relieving fatigue, lower back strain, and constipation. Fitness Professionals recommend Gyrotonic System for prenatal preparation and postpartum recovery. Fitness professionals design a fabulous delivery program with more modified exercises with specific issues as and when it arises to support the mother and baby in the transition into motherhood.
Most of the people who are rehabbing certain injuries turn to Gyrotonic because it’s smooth, gentle, and graceful, and can even help to break down scar tissue. The technique very well builds on systematically and gently works the joints and muscles through rhythmic and undulating exercises. The circular movements can stimulate internal organs at the same time different breathing patterns are integrated. The researchers of Gytonics suggested seven natural elements of spinal movements, such as 1) forward, 2) backward, 3) left side, 4) right side, 5) left twist, 6) right twist and 7) circular movement.
The Gyrotonic system is designed to work with a performer’s specific requirements and help them to be less prone to stress and injury so that the system allows a performer not only to achieve freedom of movement but also to increase the range of body motion. Gyrotonic training develops a performer’s physical and mental abilities by emphasizing joint articulation and integrating movements with the corresponding breathing patterns. 
<h2>Both Gyrotonic system and Gyrokinesis Do: </h2>
<ul>
<li>Strengthens and tones the abdominal muscles.</li>
<li>Elongates the musculature and helps to shape the body.</li>
<li>Improves stability, balance, coordination, and neuro muscular control.</li>
<li>Increases stamina with little or minimal impact on the joints.</li>
<li>Opens up energy centers and relieves the energetic stagnation.</li>
<li>A smooth invigorating and pain-free workout.</li>
</ul>
Then, next is the nonavailability of good teachers. Need to travel far and not locally available. Gyrotonic classes are not available in groups since the machines are so big. Hence it is not sociable. One must choose Gyrokinesis if they want group classes and enjoy the company of exercising in a group. 
Initially, it will take time to understand the movements of the machine and coordinate with that. It can be frustrating and confusing. But relax and try to understand the same. You need to give yourself much time to see your body change as you learn the different moves with patience.

<title>Yoga Or Pilates? The Key Difference & Benefits</title>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Yoga and Pilates are exercises known for their ability to tone bodies at low intensity and without impact. While they each have their unique principles and postures, both exercises are aerobic, meaning they can increase blood flow and burn fat and carbohydrates for energy. At the same time, those who perform these workouts can reach a “recovery pace,” where the heart rate slows down and the muscles have a chance to stretch, build, and recover. This active recovery is one reason athletes will incorporate yoga or Pilates into their exercise regimen. Still,a half hour to an hour of this type of exercise is sufficient for cardiovascular and muscular health if done three to four times per week for most other people.
So, what is the difference between yoga and Pilates? We know that Pilates involves precise movements for strengthening and lengthening the body, but <a href="https://instincthealth.com.au/pilates-or-yoga-for-toning-body/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">is yoga good for toning</a> as well? 
Pilates focuses on engaging and contracting and then releasing specific muscle groups at a time. Pilates will sometimes incorporate special equipment for extra resistance, such as Pilates Reformer, to increase muscle tone. This is one reason why Pilates is often practiced in conjunction with Physiotherapy.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-3504" src="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Warm-Up-min.jpg" alt="" width="779" height="503" srcset="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Warm-Up-min.jpg 1860w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Warm-Up-min-300x194.jpg 300w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Warm-Up-min-768x495.jpg 768w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Warm-Up-min-1024x661.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 779px) 100vw, 779px" />
Pilates places awareness on proper form while focusing on small muscle groups. To see how Pilates is different from yoga, let’s take a look at some of Pilate’s unique benefits: 
<ul>
<li>Improved posture and spinal stability</li>
<li>Core strength and stability</li>
<li>Increased muscle tone and control</li>
<li>Strength in hips, lower back, and pelvis</li>
<li>Coordination and balance</li>
<li>Flexibility</li>
</ul>
Like Pilates, yoga has similar benefits for both body and mind. When it comes to flexibility, toning, and strength, yoga focuses on the whole body and total body movements. Yoga also sometimes uses equipment, but rather than increasing tone, these props, such as blocks or straps, make poses more achievable. Each <a href="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/blog/uttana-shishosana-extended-puppy-pose/">yoga pose</a> helps to strengthen and stretch the body and works more so against gravity for resistance.
Here are a few benefits of practicing yoga:
<ul>
<li>Body awareness</li>
<li>Lower stress levels</li>
<li>Increased cardiovascular health</li>
<li>Better sleep</li>
<li>Balance and coordination</li>
<li>Better focus and concentration</li>
</ul>
After taking a closer look at each exercise, we can see how they both help tone the body in their own way. Each exercise incorporates bodyweight, but with different methods and sometimes even equipment. If you want to strengthen, stretch, and tone your body, both of these exercises would benefit you. Your physiotherapist can also help recommend one over the other depending on any injuries or your personal goals.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Considering the sedentary lifestyle that we are living, the ways we stay healthy have changed certainly. Losing weight is undoubtedly one of the most essential things to consider if you want to live a healthy life. Living a life that gives you the potential to unlock is a must.
While there are weight loss foods that you can eat to get in your desired shape, however, it won’t be completely helpful if you are failing to follow specific tips around weight loss. Losing your weight and maintaining an age to weight ratio is never easy.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-6340" src="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Weight-Loss-min.jpg" alt="Weight Loss guide" width="685" height="411" srcset="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Weight-Loss-min.jpg 1000w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Weight-Loss-min-300x180.jpg 300w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Weight-Loss-min-768x461.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 685px) 100vw, 685px" />
Losing weight never comes with a pro tip to help you change the way you live. However, when followed correctly, there are certain tips that might help you with an effective weight reduction.
Listed below is the approach that you might want to follow, to lose your weight significantly.
Also read: <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/blog/yoga-deep-meditation-beginners/">Yoga & Meditation for Beginners</a>
<h2>Tips to follow for your weight loss journey:</h2>
<h3>1. Do some weight training:</h3>
Doing some intense level weight training might be less effective when it comes to losing your weight when compared to cardio. However, weight lifting is the key to maintain increased levels of metabolism in your body.
Having an increased rate of metabolism is vital as it is quite useful when it comes to long-term diet. Consider weight training to be a mode that improves your metabolism and doesn’t let the body switch to low energy consumption.
However, never forget to consume some protein after a workout.
<h3>2. Improvise with the calorie count:</h3>
When on a diet, our body adapts to the function of consuming low amounts of food. The body prepares to cut down on energy consumption. To break it down in simpler words, when we consume low amounts of calories, our body adapts to the new living conditions.
To help you out with improvising the calorie count, we suggest you use caloric cycles. You can play with the number of calories that you intake, consider eating about 1,000 or 1,200 kcal that contains no carbs and consume 1,500 kcal on other days. This way, the <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/blog/yoga-for-weight-loss-guide/">weight loss</a> foods won’t slow down the metabolism and create the required caloric deficit.
<h3>3. Drink lots of water, especially before the meals:</h3>
Water plays an essential role in our living and also plays a significant role when it comes to boosting metabolism in a body. Studies show that water improves the metabolism rate by <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14671205">24–30%</a> over a period of 1–1.5 hours. This way, water helps you reduce more calories and lose your weight rapidly.
Interestingly, a report suggests that half a litre of water, when consumed about half an hour before meals helped the people in a diet consume fewer calories and reduce around 44% more weight when compared to the people who didn’t follow the rule.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-6341" src="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Weight-Loss-2.jpg" alt="Weight Loss" width="354" height="354" srcset="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Weight-Loss-2.jpg 600w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Weight-Loss-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Weight-Loss-2-150x150.jpg 150w" sizes="(max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px" />
<h3>4. Cut off on sugars:</h3>
Another great way to reduce your weight is to cut off on sugar intake. It is one of the easiest forms to help you eliminate the calories formed by sugar intake from your diet.
Cutting down on your sugar intake includes cutting off on food items like sodas, chocolate milk, fruit juices, and other forms of beverage that carry sugar in any type.
There is a reason why you should not consume liquid sugar because they do more harm to your body weight than you probably have an idea. Interestingly, it was also found out that a high amount of liquid sugar intake can lead a body to obesity.
Children who consume a lot of liquid sugar, have high chances of <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23763695">around 60% </a>to be affected with obesity at an early stage.

<h3>5. Homemade weight loss foods are better than consuming ready-made:</h3>
Eating your own homemade weight loss foods are far better than relying on the packed or ready-made fruits. The food industry is infamous for hiding facts and figures about the fat and sugar levels that they use in the production of their food.
Moreover, the packaged foods are not helpful for a healthy body due to the preservatives present in them.
Moreover, once you start preparing your food, you will have a first-hand idea of all the ingredients that you are using in your food. Cooking your food gives you the control to decide the amount of food that you need to keep up with an effective weight loss plan.
<h3>6. Keep a strict rule on the hours that you sleep:</h3>
While eating healthy and doing exercises is essential, having proper sleep cycles is a must.
Lack of sleep can result in you waking up for longer hours, changing the way you eat and might also lead to you consuming more calories than you are allowed to.
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
Losing weight might not be easy, but once you have a hang of diets and workouts, you won’t give it up.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[In the current era, human beings are exposed to so many stressors on an everyday basis. There are physical stressors like commuting to work, sitting in one place in front of the computer screens for eight hours straight to get the job done, etc.
These physical stressors allow less mobility to our body, and this, in turn, is becoming the leading cause of chronic diseases at a very young age. The younger generation is more dependent on doctors and consumes more medicines than food. The human body and the mind are so fragile that without the right care, it will start deteriorating.
Medicine, science, and technology are evolving rapidly, and there is a new discovery every passing second. But the same English medicine, which is a mixture of numerous chemicals, also has side effects like weight gain, weight loss, hair loss, organ failures, hormonal dis-balances, etc. Medicine is used to cure the disease and help the human body, but what good is it if it is causing more harm than good.

Ayurveda is an ancient medical science or also called the science of life, is about 5000 years old, which can help the body, mind, and soul find the perfect balance with the universe. There are five major elements that form the universe, and that is the space, water, wind, fire, and earth.
<h2>Why studying Ayurveda is Recommended?</h2>
Ayurveda is not just about massages and therapies. It is a science of life that helps the body connect with mother nature. Ayurveda nurtures the human body with the help of nature by changing the diet, the way a person lives, and also by incorporating small changes to mental health. There are courses to study Ayurveda in colleges and also online, that many take up and excel, but what these courses fail to teach are the underlying principles of the teachings. So, it is also important to know the origin and the history of the evolution of Ayurvedic medicine. Ayurveda is not just about taking oral medication but also about connecting the mind and body to nature.
Some reputable places practice a proactive approach to help their clients develop a healthy lifestyle and heal them through the methods of Ayurveda. They believe in finding the root cause of a problem or doshas and then giving the right treatment to heal that. Places like Ayurveda authorized centers not only provides treatment but also gives the opportunity to study Ayurveda. 

Ayurveda, being a science of life, focuses on the holistic development of a person that contributes to a longer life span and living a healthy and well- balanced life. To study Ayurveda, it is important to understand the basics first. In Ayurveda, there are three doshas, namely the Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.

Vata is associated with the wind and is linked to flexibility and creativity. Vata governs all movements, which include breathing, the beating of the heart, contractions of the muscles, and the functioning of the nervous system.
Pitta, a fire element, represents transformation and is associated with intelligence, understanding, and digestion of food, emotions, and experiences. It monitors body temperature, nutrition, and metabolism. Kapha, associated with the water and earth elements, hydrates the skin and lubricates the tissues, joints, and improves immunity.
Ayurvedic treatment covers three major aspects, which is the cure, detox, and rejuvenation. In Ayurveda cure does not mean getting rid of the symptoms. This approach usually tends to have side effects and is not a long term solution.
Cure means balancing the three doshas and regaining the human body’s complete functionality and metabolism. Detox treatments differ from one part of the body to another and the most common <a href="https://www.gaiam.com/blogs/discover/10-ways-to-detoxify-your-body">detoxification</a> treatment is called Panchkarma. The final concept is rejuvenation, which is basically to regain the lost youth and vigor.
Who can learn Ayurveda?
The Ayurveda courses are generally designed and taken up only by doctors, nurses, massage therapists, yoga instructors, etc. because they have a basic understanding of the anatomy of the human body. So, learning Ayurveda is just an added advantage for them. Additionally, anyone who is interested in learning Ayurveda for self-help, and those who want to understand their body better and make changes to their lifestyle can also study Ayurveda.
The experts in Ayurveda centers help their patients find their way back by eradicating the negativity and impurities with the help of nature, minimizing the side effects and transforming them into new healthy individuals. Join us and learn the magic of Ayurveda medicine and reconnecting with nature.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Are you new to the world of yoga and meditation and would like to know where to begin cultivating a practice? Yoga and meditation are ancient practices, they transform us on all levels, mind, body and soul. The two really go hand in hand as tools to integrate into your daily life for incredible and lasting transformation. 
At the core of yoga is movement, breath and a healthy life philosophy which includes meditation. In India, yoga has been practiced for over 5000 years and may even go back further than that. Since being adopted so enthusiastically in the Western world, the practice of yoga sometimes falls victim to being seen as simply a “spiritual” exercise class and the way of life that goes with it is not embraced fully. In fact, yoga as a spiritual philosophy and practice has been evolving over time as it has been accepted, embraced and integrated into different cultures globally.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3970" src="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Yoga-Teacher-Training-Goa-Yoga-Course-min.jpg" alt="Yoga Teacher Training in Goa, Yoga TTC in Goa" width="700" height="500" srcset="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Yoga-Teacher-Training-Goa-Yoga-Course-min.jpg 700w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Yoga-Teacher-Training-Goa-Yoga-Course-min-300x214.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" />
What makes practicing yoga so unique is the lifestyle it embodies. When you regularly return to a yoga and meditation practice, you transform your life outside of that practice too. It truly extends beyond the movements on the mat into the rest of your experience. 
That’s why meditation and yoga go together so perfectly, and if you are just starting out, creating a practice that involves both can really help you to understand and embody the philosophy. 
Yoga helps you to find peace, become more balanced and emotionally grounded as well as physically strong and flexible. Meditation and mindful breath are an essential and integral part of yoga, as you move through various poses your breath is a guide and a centering force. 
Both yoga and meditation teach you to become present, kind and loving towards yourself and others in your life. They increase your awareness and with increased awareness comes a wider perspective of the world and the ability to be more mindful and compassionate. 
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3391" src="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/5-Child-pose-min.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="500" srcset="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/5-Child-pose-min.jpg 600w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/5-Child-pose-min-300x250.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" />
You see how it is far more than a few stretches?! Yoga and meditation truly are a way of life. 
<a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.yogabasics.com/practice/yoga-for-beginners/">So how should you get started? </a>Don’t be intimidated by the amount of information on yoga and meditation. Remember that at their core is a simple message – be present, mindful and aware. The beauty of both yoga and meditation is that they can be done pretty much anywhere, and you take the ability to practice them with you wherever you go. 
If you would like to understand more about the ancient philosophy behind yoga and want to build an authentic foundation to your practice and ground it in some basic knowledge and gain a sense of awareness, check out translations of the ancient sanskrit texts, the Yoga Sutras or the Bhagavad Gita. You can always then pair these with more contemporary books that explain certain poses or different types of yoga and meditation. 
The best way to get started with an <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/blog/yoga-for-glowing-skin/">actual yoga practice</a> is to take a class and learn to master some of the basic and simple poses and asanas. Yoga does not have to be complicated, and some of the most easy seeming poses are in fact the deepest and most transformative on all levels. Being a beginner can be a blessing in this way, for you learn the basic framework that holds it all together. Yoga is not competitive, it’s a deeply personal experience and depends entirely on your physical nature, your spirit and your sense of commitment and awareness. This is something you can evolve as you deepen your learning.
Learning yoga and breathwork together is a great way to bring meditation into your life through yoga. Certain techniques such as<a style="color: #000000;" href="https://chopra.com/articles/nadi-shodhana-how-to-practice-alternate-nostril-breathing"> alternate nostril breathing</a>,(nadishodhana) has the added benefits of calming your system, releasing stress, clearing the chakras and helping you to feel clear and positive. When you sit in this position, the breathing can help you to focus on the present moment and you learn to appreciate meditation through yoga at the same time, seeing how they complement each other.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2923" src="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/BANN22-min.jpg" alt="How Yoga & Meditation Helps" width="800" height="350" srcset="https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/BANN22-min.jpg 800w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/BANN22-min-300x131.jpg 300w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/BANN22-min-768x336.jpg 768w, https://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/BANN22-min-600x263.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" />
Another way to bring meditation into your routine would be to try out different techniques and see which is a good fit for you and your lifestyle. Some yoga classes include a meditation at the beginning or end of the class or they are incorporated around a meditation mantra such as om. If you really want to bring a regular meditation practice into your life however, try to set aside at least 10-20 minutes each morning to be quiet and tap into your inner stillness, focusing on your breathing.
It is very normal to find this quiet time challenging at first, remember that you are not trying to rid your mind of thoughts, but rather to become aware of them without being distracted by them. Some people find that meditation music based around the sound science and brain entrainment of binaural beats is a very effective way to bring themselves almost instantly to a deep meditative state. You can find a full review here of one such product, equisync, which is a wonderful way to bring meditation into your life naturally and easily.
Yoga and deep meditation will bring you immeasurable long term health benefits on a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[
The wide-legged forward bend or Prasarita Padottanasana (Prah-sah-REET-ah- Pah-doh-tahn-AA-SUN-aa) is like an energised version of yoga. It helps in increasing blood circulation to the brain while stretching the legs, arms and back of a person. The name of this yoga asana comes from the Sanskrit language. Prasarita means outstretched, pada means foot, ut means intense, tan means stretch and asana means pose or a posture.
This posture is literally a practice of intense stretching while spreading both of your feet. Practicing the Prasarita Padottanasana every day can be intensive, expansive and a calming way after a long some standing poses, or mostly after any physical activity like running, walking, or cycling. This asana is more often than not sequenced at the end of the yoga practice. It is a good preparatory yoga posture for performing a headstand, and a peacock pose. Once this pose is perfected, you can always go for many other variations of this pose for a better result.
<h2>Prasarita Padottanasana Categorised in A,B,C & D:</h2>
Prasarita Padottanasana is a phase of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga initial series. There are four assortments of Prasarita Padottanasana, A, B, C, and D. Together, they sanitise the butt-centric trench and tone the lower stomach area just as the tissues around the top piece of the spinal section. With the exercise of all four variations, your lower midriff and legs will grow to be stronger and your hips extra flexible.
Let’s Talk about All These Four Types:
<h3>Prasarita Padottanasana A</h3>
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="http://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/A-min.jpg" alt="Prasarita Padottanasana A" /></figure>
The most generally rehearsed variation is Prasarita Padottanasana A. It is a pose that helps to reinforce the legs and abdomen while calming the mind and releasing pent-up emotions. Ensure that you don’t open your legs excessively far separated (or keeping them too close together).


<h3>Prasarita Padottanasana B</h3>


<figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="http://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/B-min.jpg" alt="Prasarita Padottanasana B" /></figure>


Prasarita Padottanasana B depends totally on the strength of the waist and legs. If your vary of movement is confined and you can’t do the complete expression of the pose, at that point you can attempt a variation demonstrated here


<h3>Prasarita Padottanasana C</h3>


<figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="http://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/C-min.jpg" alt="Prasarita Padottanasana C" /></figure>


Prasarita Padottanasana C is the third of four places of this wide-legged forward crease, which include four unique articulations of the arms, even though the base of the posture and the stance of the spine continue as before all through the outflows of the asana.


<h3>Prasarita Padottanasana D</h3>


<figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="http://www.rishikeshyogaclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/D-min.jpg" alt="Prasarita Padottanasana D" />
<figcaption>Prasarita Padottanasana D</figcaption>
</figure>


Prasarita Padottanasana D is a deeper, increased exquisite stretch of the legs than the base posture Prasarita Padottanasana. Since it is furthermore viewed as half of the transformed yoga pose, as a preparatory pose it can be a part of a yoga series for inversions.


<h3>Step-by-Step Instructions:</h3>


<ol>
<li>Stand firm in the mountain pose or Tadasana with your legs 3-4 feet apart.</li>
<li>Ensure that both of your feet are parallel to each other. Point your toes in a slight inward direction in the formation of pigeon toes.</li>
<li>Inhaling deeply lift both of your arms to your sides and bring them parallel to the floor.</li>
<li>Then exhale deeply and bend your torso in the forward direction from your hip joints to maintain a straight spine.</li>
<li>When you place your torso is parallel to the ground, keep your hands underneath both of your shoulders.</li>
<li>Then lift your hips and bend more while breathing out to bring your head between both of your hands.</li>
<li>Engage both your thighs so that your quadriceps gets activated.</li>
<li>Now press your hands on the floor firmly so that bend deepens further. If your hands are reaching your feet, grab a hold of your toes and pull them for a deeper bend bending your elbows at the same time.</li>
<li>While you inhale stretch your arms out to both the sides and lift your torso slowly. All this while maintaining a flat back.</li>
<li>Lower your arms to both your sides and return to the mountain pose or Tadasana.</li>
</ol>

Natarajasana is done with a balance which helps in strengthening the legs. A full body stretch is involved in doing this asana which involves chest, shoulders, thigh, calves, knees and ankles, hips, abdomen and spine. Practicing this asana regularly helps in developing grace and concentration. Natarajasana is known for its stretching, balancing and aesthetic abilities. It is as well used in Indian classical ball forms. Yoga teacher training in Rishikesh is the best way to learn and develop an authentic practice of Natarajasana.
The Natarajasana (nuh-tuh-rah-ja-sana) is a posture which is attained while standing and bending your back. The name of this asana comes from a combination of words derived from Sanskrit language. Nata means a dancer, raja means a king and asana means a posture. Nataraja is also one of the many names given to Lord Shiva when he takes the form of a cosmic dancer.

Now press the front of your right thigh bone backwards, deep inside the hip joint, and then pull the knee upwards to keep your standing leg strong and straight. </li>
<li>Remember to keep your entire torso in a straight and an upright position. Take a hold of your left foot from the outside direction with your left hand. See to it that your lower back is straight and your pubis is well lifted towards your navel. While doing this, press your tailbone firmly on the floor. </li>
<li>Now lift your left foot in the upward direction away from the floor and your back should be away from the torso. Now extend your right thigh behind you in a way that it is parallel to the floor. Your right arm needs to be stretched in the forward direction parallel to the floor.</li>
<li>Hold on to this posture for another fifteen to thirty seconds. Then release very slowly and repeat the whole process with the other side</li>
