Meditation and Yoga advice please?

I have been taking meditation classes at the Letchworth Centre for Healthy Living, letchworthcentre.com, I have found them incredibly useful and it has changed my life completely. I am now trying to improve my mental and physical health even more and I am looking at also taking Yoga classes. Could anyone give me any advice on Yoga or their experience doing Yoga please?

 

Take a smatterig to see what suits you. Give some thought to Ayurveda for lifestyle adjuncts about diet, and such. Peace. Be free.

 

I agree with Chodpa, get some exposure to different styles to see which you like. There are loads of great websites about Ayurveda, this one is a basic test to figure out your body type: http://www.prokerala.com/health/ayurveda/prakriti-analysis/

I practice yoga and I read as much as I can about it. I think it really helps to know about the background of your practice. Good luck and enjoy!

 

Excellent, I know that the Letchworth Centre where i do my meditation classes also does Yoga, so I will talk to the instructor and enroll in some classes

 

If you are a meditator you should check out the documentary "Yoga Unveiled" to understand some of the connections between yoga practice and spiritual well-being. It will give you some history and some framework to understand the spiritual side of yoga.

 

Yes! That's a great documentary

 

I will have to take a look at this documentary, thank you. I am starting some Yoga classes at www.letchworthcentre.com in the next few weeks.

 

I am currently also looking in to mindfulness classes. If anyone could give me any tips on this that would be great? Thanks.

 

[FONT=&quot] That’s nice if Hatha yoga relaxes your body and mind. I had also learnt the same from Yoga institute in Mumbai. [/FONT]

 

It is an excellent way to relax and become stress free throughout the week. I'm really enjoying it and it is making my work life a lot easier.

 

Join Chamunda Swami Ji's healing centre where you can attend yoga classes, meditation classes and also get spiritual vidya. Many people have improved their mental and physical level by connecting Swami Ji. He has specific knowledge about meditation, spirituality and all. He is really a master of the field.

doing ashtanga spamyasa yoga - which makes you so typical. See just right above is another spammer just like you. I think we need a proper spam-off to determine which of you are more flexible!:mickey:

 

Meditation and yoga are such the most precious thing in life that give you a stress-free mind and relax-full life. Do meditation on daily basis and check the improvement that will certainly effect you.

 

Look into Bhakti yoga.t he Bhagavad-gita describes a variety of yoga practices. Among them are Karma-yoga (the practice of conscious action), Jnana-yoga (the study of philosophy and contemplation) and Hatha-yoga (the practice of yoga-asanas and breathing exercises). The Gita ultimately prescribes bhakti yoga (the path of dedication and love); it is the culmination of these other yoga practices. Bhakti Yoga focuses on developing our dedication, our service and our love for the supreme being, Krishna.
Mantra mediation is one of the key practices of a bhakti yogi. This is done through japa (quiet chanting on beads) and kirtan (musical chanting in groups). Our connection and relationship with Krishna is developed through the chanting of the maha mantra. The chanting cleanses the heart, calms the mind, and inspires a life of purpose and meaning.
