Paschimottanasana - Yoga Teacher Training in India

The Paschimottanasana is an advanced posture which the yogic practitioners frequently practice as it is believed and visualized that it helps and aids incomplete realization of the third chakra ( navel chakra). The posture needs to be done only when the practitioner has advanced to a good level of flexibility. Let us see the steps of practicing the intense dorsal stretch. Step-by-Step Instructions Step 1. Start from the sit-up seated position( i.e. your legs stretched out rest on the ground while your upper body sits up making an angle of 90 degrees). Step 2.

Anulom-Vilom Pranayama: How to do it – Yoga In Rishikesh – Sanskar Yoga Shala

Now we come to the next pranayama technique which is named as anulom vilom Pranayama. The name has two distinct words which refer to the two nostrils, the right nostril, and the left nostril. This pranayama technique translates to alternate nostril breathing and is among the most practiced and recommended pranayama techniques among the various techniques we would come to know. Let us have a deeper look into this pranayama technique. In the same comfortable and still seated position we first check for our clear air passages before we go on ahead. Next, using any of our hands either the right one or the left we can either use the two mid fingers to close one nostril while the thumb is used for closing the other nostril respectively. In other words, if you are using your right hand then the two mid fingers are used to close the left nostril while the thumb is used to close the right nostril. This way we use your hands either left or right and control the opening of either nostril a

Bhastrika Pranayama: How to do it – Yoga In Rishikesh – Sanskar Yoga Shala

In our long course of practice, we have seen and experienced so much and I think till now many of us would be curious to know the depths of these specific techniques. I can once again assure you that what we would uncover would truly make your even happier and healthier at least. Upon knowing the Pranayama practice one tends to think how, why and where regarding the practice of this immensely potent practice as we had extolled about it in our last article. And today I would begin with the very first type of Pranayama which again has been the result of the tireless synthesis of our ancestor sages who provided us with these gifts. The name as the title says is BHASTRIKA and once again the Sanskrit meaning of this word means BELLOWS, in short, the meaning is bellow breathing. Bellows is a medium-sized hollows pipe through which air is blown and is used in India for lighting up fires for cooking (especially in rural villages). If you want an idea then you can consider a simple flute

What a Yoga Asana means – Yoga In Rishikesh – Sanskar Yoga Shala

Well, this one is going to be both interesting and action-packed as we try to understand it since writing more and more on this topic doesn’t end. The heart and core of the yogic practice which we know today, no wonder streets, facebook walls and every corner which has heard the name of yoga has an imprint of this part of the yogic routine. Asanas are postures, simply speaking taking your physical body and trying to manipulate and put it into various ways here and there is what an asana is. Twisting, laying down, standing, bending, etc. Etc whatever possible motion your body can do is combined to form a specific posture and then you stay or try holding it feeling both stable and peaceful at the same time. From the perspective of the practitioner that is what a posture would look and feel like. This way we have not hundreds and thousands of postures (new ones being developed by curious practitioners as well), and while it is both a challenging and physically vitalizing part of th

What Meditation actually means – Yoga in Rishikesh – Sanskar Yoga Shala

You might be waiting for this article for quite some time and we have been waiting to write it down pretty much to ease your curiosity in the way as it is. Many of us or almost all of us are aware of the practice of meditation or commonly known as peaceful concentration. In the yogic tradition, the word used is DHYAN, which has similar meaning and sense but with a very specific twist. DHYAN means to contemplate on one and only one topic or subject. Seems pretty simple but it is rather something very –very tough to do at once. For example, reading a book is easy; you can concentrate on the matter and go on doing it for any length of time but consider meditation or DHYAN like reading a book and only doing it nothing else. This means while you read it you can neither sense anything else, feel anything else or in other words, you are aware of nothing but only reading the book in hand. All of your minds, senses, and efforts are doing only one thing and hence making the most out it whic
