Anahata Yoga Health Benefits, Meditation Asana Poses Video Online
What is Anahata Yoga? What are the health benefits of Anahata Yoga?
Anahata Yoga is aimed at uniting, expanding and rousing the practitioner’s heart ‘intensely’ through Pranayama ( breathing exercises), Yogasanas (postures), and Dhyana (Meditation).
In the words of Yogananda Paramahansa, it is wrong to sit, walk, talk rest, or lie down slouching. This deprives the lungs of precious oxygen that results spinal problems later. So by correcting wrong posture, you open up your respiratory tract, and permit Prana, to enter and nourish your body for life.
Anahata Yoga stipulates a set of warm-up exercises. These include Yogasanas (poses), Pranayama (breathing exercises) and, finally, short meditation session. The usual sequence consists of sitting meditation after setting one’s personal intentions in order of priority. Then, in the silence of one’s heart the practitioner establishes his breath through certain set breathing techniques. This is followed by a set of Yogasanas that are designed to exercise and flex the whole spine. The normal sequence is warming-up poses, followed by standing poses and then, finally, balancing poses. Then comes a brief meditation session.
The Yoga poses in the program are designed to flex the joints and increase the flow of energy to every part of the body. This asana session ends with meditation and the practice is completed by the reclining pose Shavasana (the corpse pose), which is the final posture. The Corpse pose facilitates cooling down the body and gives the practitioner keen inner awareness, stillness and quiet. Last but not least, the practitioner sits upright and returns once more to the intentions laid down at the start of the session and then leaves with the blessings of the teacher.
Health Benefits of Anahata Yoga:
The Anahata is the fourth primary Chakra which is positioned in the area of the heart. This Chakra is associated with compassion, love, charity, and forms of psychic healing. It is also associated with the ability to make decisions outside the realm of karma or what is commonly referred to as following one’s heart.
