The meditative aspects of yoga are inherent in the physical postures, the most commonly practiced form of yoga in the United States. The benefits of a physical yoga practice are endless, but for the sake of your probably busy schedule, I will share with you seven life enhancing byproducts of a good, solid physical yoga practice.
1. Yoga increases flexibility. In fact, flexibility is practically yoga's calling card. Pictures of yogis with their legs wrapped around their heads and bodies twisted beyond recognition are images often called to mind at the mention of yoga. From the practice of yoga, flexibility naturally increases. What often goes unsaid is there is more benefit to flexibility than just flexibility.
2. Yoga prevents aging. Along with preventing injury, flexibility also keeps the body young. As a body ages, its connective tissues and organs become rigid. This rigidity is the effect of denseness without circulation. If a plant that has not been watered in a long time, the roots have trouble drawing nourishment from the soil. If the body is not regularly stretched out, tissues become dense and are often coated in fibroid tissue. It's difficult for the tissues to get blood through them, let alone vitamins, minerals or energy.
3. Yoga tones the organs. Every posture in yoga has several functions. The forward bend helps to flush the kidneys. The triangle opens the liver. When held for the right amount of time, a yoga practice can revitalize and tone every one of the internal organs. The benefits of keeping your organs in good condition go without saying. The financial benefits alone of avoiding a visit to the hospital for a transplant speak for themselves.
4. Yoga increases healthy energy flow. The yogis of ancient India discovered nadis, or energy pathways, that flow through the body. As we age, the nadis constrict, allowing less and less vital energy to flow through the body. The result is aging, loss of energy and eventually death.
5. Yoga focuses the mind. As you progress with a physical yoga practice, you will find your ability to concentrate will also increase. The yogis of ancient India were very clever, and it seems that they developed the physical postures in such a way that it is practically impossible to do them if the mind is racing elsewhere. It's essential to focus on what you are doing in the here and now while practicing yoga? unless you want to wind up in an out-of-balance heap on the floor.
