Dear Reader,
It seems like whenever I turn on the TV, I see something with yoga
in it. From sit-coms to car advertisements, even a beer commercial,
everywhere you turn, people are talking about yoga. For the first time
since the 70's, yoga is experiencing a resurgence of interest. Is West
meeting East, or are the baby boomers trying yet another trend to slow
the pace of their hectic lives? Anyone who knows yoga will tell you
it's no trend. The practice of yoga has a deeply ro oted scientific
basis, and it's been around for over three thousand years. Yoga has
stayed the test of time, and for one simple reason: yoga works.
People ask, what is yoga? Hatha Yoga is the physical aspect of
yoga, a school of Indian philosophy that as a whole, aspires to achieve
spiritual enlightenment. Yoga is like a ladder of self-development
with hatha yoga being the first step on that ladder. The other steps
are far too detailed for this writing, but they include karma yoga, the
yoga of action; jnana yoga, the yoga of knowledge; and bhakti yoga, the
yoga of devotion. The practice of hatha yoga is not a religion, nor
does it ever compromise a person's belief system. So when the yoga
word namaste (nah-mah-stay) is spoken, it simply means, the Divine in
me bows to the Divine in you. The word yoga literally means union,
from the Sanskrit word yuj, to unite. "Ha" represents the sun, and
"tha" represents the moon. Hatha yoga means literally, union of the
sun and moon; or symbolically, the union of right and left; of male and
female; and of yin and
yang--or the opposites of nature.
So why is hatha yoga so good for you? The ancient yogi's believed
that to achieve a highly developed inner-self, they first had to
perfect their outer-selves. So hatha yoga was developed to unite the
body with the mind and spirit. This union is achieved by using the
breath in a different way called pranayama, or deep diaphragmatic
breathing, stemming from the center, the solar plexus, much like in
martial arts. Combining deep breathing with deep stretching increases
flexibility, improves posture and skeletal alignment, improves
circulation and helps flush toxins from the body, and it improves
balance, coordination and concentration. Yoga promotes a deep sense of
relaxation and encourages a sense of calmness and well-being. Yoga
relaxes and energizes the entire person, inside and out, all at the
same time.
It seems like the 70's and the national interest in yoga was such
a long time ago, but the need for balance and well-being has remained
unchanged. Perhaps a three thousand year old body-mind-spirit science
is just what the doctor ordered....Namaste!
Here's to your good health,

In the midst of compromised sources for our water, air, food and soil…
Your 5 channels of elimination – liver, kidneys, colon, lungs and
skin – all have to work harder to neutralize and eliminate toxins. And
that adds up to organ stress and exhaustion, which helps contribute to
cellular stress and finally — daily, life-draining fatigue – which is
also a breeding ground for illness and disease.
The end result of poor diet and increased pollution: we are more wrung out, strung out and dragging from one day to the next.
Now, there’s an easy, fast, super convenient, all natural, way to jumpstart and maintain your energy all day long and gain powerful, new health protection for your entire body, at the same time.
