Yoga Nidra and Susceptibility

Everyday life blunts the susceptibility for most people, but Yoga Nidra expands and deepens this susceptibility. Just as the molten iron can be given any shape, and the molten Yoga Nidra mind can change in a constructive way, if it burned his complexes and opaseneiya. This also deals with Yoga Nidra. For example, if I call something right or wrong, you can agree with me or not, and this will be your only rational solution, not more, for a single agreement is not a willful act of embodying my statement in your daily life. What are the obstacles? 

There are many reasons why it is so difficult to practically implement our ideas. All the lofty ideals of life should not remain on paper only the scriptures - they should live together with us, if they are true. Yoga Nidra enables us at last to touch the mystery of our spiritual identity, which is responsible for everything we think and do. Through Yoga Nidra, we can begin to act in the name of those ideals in which we believe. I once met a professional thief and a hardened criminal. After a lengthy conversation with him I, I thought, convinced him that stealing is not good. He even called himself a sinner. And I thought it a miracle that I drew it on the right path. 

Five years later, I returned to his village and found that he is still engaged in their craft. Why? Because he agreed with me that stealing is bad on the level of sound mind, not unconscious. I decided to stay in this country for another six months to spend in school classes in Yoga Nidra with teachers and children. Interestingly, the thief also attended my classes and soon ceased to steal. This example illustrates that a rational persuasion is small, because it is only one aspect of human consciousness. Each of us has their own idea about what is good and what is bad, but not all follow these ideas. 

Need to develop a sensitivity to everything, what we encounter. This is possible only when the stimuli were removed and the mind begins to calm down. When a well-balanced mind is faced with a stimulus, consciousness is not distorted, and sends people the best way. If a person entered into a state of receptivity, practicing Yoga Nidra, you can tell him about his shortcomings, suggesting to him the positive installation. If its sensitivity reached its climax, he will have to listen and obey, because of his rational mind has lost its activity in the same proportion. Understand human nature Before practice Yoga Nidra, pursuing a goal, try to understand the nature of the person you are going to re-educate or your practice can cause his loathing. 

Despite the fact that you offer people great and lofty ideas during a session of Yoga Nidra, a person can not follow them. It happens that someone is inside us like rebels against the established rules, procedures and laws. This is because the idea stuck in our minds, contrary to our true nature. Each of us has a personal identity of nature, which is impossible and unnecessary to remove. Yogis call this the nature of "svabhava", ie innate nature. We can change habits, religious habits, but not human nature, which accompanies man through his whole life, being the main cause of all his achievements and mistakes. 

To understand the nature, it is necessary to study the spontaneous and not a rational human behavior. But adults are so overloaded with different concepts and so-called rules, that their behavior is rarely a natural and spontaneous. Not so children who are almost always naturally and easily included in the state of Yoga Nidra, extracting maximum benefit from it ...

Yoga Nidra and Nonviolence

Yoga Nidra is a tantric practice, and according to tantric laws must evolve spontaneously. You should not fight with their habits and complexes and to eliminate its nature, because Such actions only form the inner discomfort and hostility. No wonder many people are trying to adjust themselves with the help of various denominations, become aggressive schizophrenics ... Even modern psychology has grown up so much, which gives us: "If you have weaknesses, not to push them forcibly, because they do not eliminate hatred." 

What to do? If you want a tree or fruit, is enough to cut off its branches? Bays its root! In other words, to eliminate the defects, you must get closer to the root of the mind, ie to the subconscious and Yoga Nidra can provide you this service. Man is weak and because he was so clinging to their branches and leaves (the feelings and intelligence), but as soon as he opened the gates to the subconscious, trusting in Yoga Nidra, he finds himself at the door of creativity. 

Wonder in Indian mythology, a symbol of Yoga Nidra is the Lord Narayana, reclining on the ocean of milk. It lies on a gigantic snake with a large number of hoods, and the beautiful Lakshmi, massages his feet, while from the navel of Narayana sprouts a lotus flower, which sits in the pericarp Lord Brahma, the symbol of the subconscious. Lord Narayana - it's your trust, the snake - your blanket and your floor - is the ocean of milk. When practicing Yoga Nidra, you should maximize relax and not deal with concentration. If you really follow the instructions of a man who manages your Yoga Nidra, before you open the gates to update your identity, but if you miss at least a few instructions, it will not happen. All you need to do - follow the instructions to vote.

Yoga Nidra and shavasana

In the morning, after the practice of asanas, you can listen Shavasana. In the middle of the day, when it is felt mild fatigue, for example, after work or school, you can listen to Yoga Nidra. It is advisable to listen to Yoga Nidra every day one at a time. If relaxation does not go head does not turn off during the entire record nidra, you can practice and two days on a daily basis. 

Yoga Nidra - a panacea for the everyday stress, nervousness and sleeplessness. Half an hour of quality practice of yoga nidra is equivalent to the usual 2 hours of sleep! In this practice, no effort has not. All you want - it aside for a 20 minute time to lie down on a flat hard surface without a pillow (for example, on the floor), heat to escape, to hide blindfold (if you are a day) and follow the instructions of the speaker. 

Five reasons of causing pain

Patanjali lists five reasons citta Vritti, causing pain (flare), namely: 

1. Avidya (ignorance or lack thereof); 
2. Asmita (sense of individuality, isolating human and distinguishes him from the group. It is a physical, mental, intellectual or emotional); 
3. Para (affection or passion); 
4. Dvesha (dislike or disgust); 
5. Abhinivesha (zest for life, the instinctive attachment to the earthly life and carnal pleasures, fear of being cut off from their death). 

These reasons are suffering in the depths of the mind Sadhakas (worshiper, seeker of truth). They are like icebergs of the polar seas, in which visible only the upper part. They must be hard to control and eradicate, otherwise the rest will not. Yogi learns to forget the past and not worry about the future. He lives in an eternal present. 

As the breeze stirs the surface of the lake, distorting the image reflected in it, and citta Vritti violate the peace of mind. Still waters of the lake reflect the beauty around him. When the mind is stopped, it reflects the beauty Ya Yogi stops your mind with constant diligence and release from desire. Eight stages of Yoga teach him how to achieve this. 

While the Shiva Samhita and Hatha Yoga Pradipika referred to the possible timing of success, Patanjali never defines how much time is required that the individual soul has achieved unity with the Divine Universal Soul. He said that the mind makes a serene and calm Abhyasa (incessant and persistent practice) and Vairagya (freedom from desires). Abhyasa he defines as a long sustained effort, carried out with devotion, which creates a strong foundation. 

Coordinating and focusing his body, senses, mind, reason, and I, a man reaches the awards - inner peace - and has the desire to connect his soul with the Creator. The main adventure in life - this is his return to the Creator. 

To achieve the goal, he needs a well-developed and functioning coordinating body, senses, mind, intellect and Y. If his efforts are not coordinated, a person will fail. In the third chapter (the Valley) the first part of "Katha Upanishad" God of death Yama explains that yoga Nachiketa seeker of truth, telling a parable about a man on a chariot. 

"Know the Atman (I) as the Lord in a chariot, the mind - as the charioteer and the mind - as the reins. Feelings, they say it's horses, and the object of their desires-pasture. Wise men call I am in unity with the senses and mind Bhoktrom (those who enjoys). Unable to discern never would rule over his mind, his feelings like a skittish horse. Able to distinguish always controls his mind, his feelings are like an obedient horse. Unable to discern become careless, even the unclean, and he does not reach the goal, passing from one body to another. ability to discern is attentive and always pure, he reaches the goal and is born again. The man who is able to discern charioteer, ruling the mind reaches the end of the road - the supreme abode of eternal Spirit. 

Practice Yoga in a meditative Kljuch

In the sixth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, the most authoritative source on the philosophy of yoga, Sri Krishna explains to Arjuna the importance of yoga as liberation from suffering and sorrow. It says: 



"When the thoughts flow, curbed, 
resides only in the Atman, Partha, 
when her husband reassured desire - he was then called "yogi." 

When the yogi, the thought under control, 
itself strengthens yoga 
He is like a candle, whose flame 
does not fluctuate in a place without wind. 

Where the idea of exercise in yoga 
shut down, freezes, 
where there is joy in the Atman 
contemplates atman atman -- 

For there he learns that happiness 
anything beyond the senses, one thought is available, 
supraliminal, standing in which 
he will not depart from the truth, -- 

staying there is not embarrassed 
even the most severe grief; 
in fact, reaching the goal does not claim he 
something higher, better meet. 

Condition this is yoga, 
that opens the shackles of sorrows. " 
( "Bhagavad Gita", VI, 18-23.) * 

In the Katha Upanishad yoga is described as: "When feelings calm down, when the mind is at rest, when the intellect does not fluctuate, then, as the sages say, reached the highest stage. This constant control over the senses and mind is called yoga. Are over him freed from delusions." 

Sage Patanjali (who lived around the second century BC, the founder of the school of Yoga in India), describes yoga as citta Vritti Nirodha "that can be translated as" deterrence (Nirodha) oscillations (Vritti) mind (citta), or as "suppression (Nirodhi) fluctuations (Vritti) consciousness (citta)". The word "citta 'means mind in general or collective sense, and includes three categories: (a) the mind (manas, ie, the individual mind that has spososobnostyami and opportunities of attention, selection and rejection, is a vacillating, indecisive piece of mind), (b ) mind or intellect (buddhi, ie the state decision, finding differences between subjects) and (c) ego (Ahamkara, literally "create itself", ie the state of approval: "I know"). 

Happy is the man who knows how to through their insight and wisdom to distinguish the real from the unreal, the eternal from the transitory and the good of the pleasant. Twice blessed is he who knows true love and can love all God's creation. Thrice blessed is he who works selflessly for the benefit of others with love in my heart. He who combines in his mortal body of knowledge, love and dedication, holy, and to him are the pilgrims, as a confluence of the rivers Ganges, Jamuna and Saraswati. Who saw him will find peace of mind and cleared. 

Um - the king of the senses. The winner your mind, feelings, passions, thoughts and mind - the king over the people. He is worthy of Raja Yoga, the royal union with the Universal Spirit. He found inner light.

Tips from Yoga and Ayurveda

How to keep stressed skin from aging and transformed into healthy, radiant skin. 
Do you know the proverb: Up to 40 you wear the face that you got from his parents and from 40, the face that has given your life. It is a truth lies, and which is often a good news for all those who stress-reducing measures, such as yoga have made a part of everyday life. Yoga asanas nourish not only the internal organs, but they also benefit the health and the complexion of the skin. But what can we do about yoga out yet to make it appear healthy aging skin? 

"Our faces and our facial skin are the physical representation of everything we think and do - an unerring mirror of the soul observes," the Indian Pratima Raichur, author of "Real beauty comes from within," (Droemer / Knaur). "If you want to change your appearance, you must first change the thoughts, feelings and habits, from which stem from the stress and aging." 

The good news are that we have a considerable influence on looking like our largest organ in the long run and will work. If we live a life under constant pressure, poor diet and too little sleep, then the stress, these habits contribute to the body, and finally transferred to our skin. On the other hand, our skin will age gracefully and with dignity, if we learn to empathize with the body's needs and adopting a healthy lifestyle. 

According to Ayurveda is a major factor for the deterioration of the skin that we ignore the needs of our individual body type. Each of us is born with a special mind-body constitution, which is dominated by the respective proportions of the three doshas - vata, pitta and kapha characterized - in the body. Each of the three body types, faces, each with different challenges and different ages. The first step in maintaining a healthy skin, then, is to focus on the needs of our specific attention to the constitution. 

Those predominance of vata dosha, Vata qualities are reflected in their psyche and physique. They tend to be lighter stature, with thin, frizzy and dry hair, as well as fine, delicate skin, with a tendency towards dryness, premature wrinkles and dull, lackluster appearance. 

If vata predominant in your body, they should be your Schönheitsambition focus mainly on the moistening and nutrition - both internally and externally. Drink at least eight glasses of water daily. Get used to a diet of warm, sweet and oily food that appears. Fresh fruits and vegetables are also very helpful, but you never eat them cold. 

Pitta types have very sensitive skin. That is why people tend to wrinkle more of this body type, age spots and freckles due to sun exposure. Pittas also react extremely sensitive to chemicals in personal hygiene and cosmetic products, which then can cause rashes or other reactions. 

If you are a pitta type, then you take extra care to use only 100% natural health and cosmetics without preservatives, chemical derivatives, or artificial fragrances. You should also avoid direct sunlight and satisfy your pitta by maintaining regular eating habits, eat lots of fruits and süßsaftige avoid scharfgewürzte food. 

Kapha types tend to slow aging, compared to the other two body types. Their skin is thicker and therefore less vulnerable to wrinkles. The main problem for Kapha people is their low digestive power, which often leads to the accumulation of ama, or toxic waste materials in the body. And this can affect the allocation of nutrients to the skin and create oily, rough, dull skin with enlarged pores. 

Kapha types should be used to insist on a regular facial skin detoxification and this natural cleaning pads and masks. Practice yoga on a regular basis, because this is a great way to detoxify, while acting contrary to the kapha tendency to lethargy. Avoid heavy, cold and sweet food, since that is indigestible, and, as mentioned, tends to leave toxic waste in your body. It would be useful for you, you are held at regular intervals for several days to a detoxification diet. 

Once you have become one of the needs of your individual skin thoughts, it's time to look more closely at the stress in your life - both the stress in your environment as well as the stress in daily life. "Stress is a major cause for the deterioration of the skin and premature aging," says Dr. Rama Mishra, one of the experts in the field of Ayurvedic body care. "He takes effect on the balance of the doshas and to the delicate process of transformation of nutrients to body cells and also to skin cells. 

What do you too, to reduce stress - it will reward you not only with more beauty, but also enhance your health and vitality. " 

Many of the lesions, which we regard as normal expression of aging, such as some wrinkles, brown spots, or pigment changes caused by stress factors of the environment, and therefore are actually preventable. Air pollution, sunlight, alcohol, cigarette smoke (also known as passive smoking) and chemicals in cosmetics such as in the water all attack the skin. 

While the steps to avoid these negative influences are obviously relatively easy to perform, which can deal with the daily stress to be something more complicated. If the body is under stress, it produces a number of stress hormones - a rational response to short-term stress situations, but harmful if it lasts longer. Hormonal changes can cause a number of specific skin problems such as hair loss, acne, thinning of the skin, itching, excessive sweating, premature wrinkles and skin diseases such as psoriasis, hives, and shingles. 

"The language of hormones," says Raichur, "the skin and the immune system provided exactly what we think and feel in every moment, and they reflect our thoughts reflected by their corresponding functions." 

Prolonged stress is visible in several long-term changes in the skin and hair. The body is vital nutrients from the skin to organs like heart, brain and lung umdirigieren; a process that gradually the skin that lacks nutrition, they actually needed. 

Extended periods of stress also consider slowing down the metabolic processes affected, and the renewal of skin cells, which makes the skin appear dull and gray. Stress causes them upset the fluid balance in the body and leaves the skin relaxed and clean out. In addition, a longer-term stress response increases the production of free radicals, which in turn hamper vital cell structures and functions of the skin and damage. 

Such damage by free radicals are manifested not only in our appearance, structure, they also increase the risk of a gradual deterioration of body functions and, thus preparing the ground for a number of chronic diseases, from heart disease to cancer, the auto-immune deficiency and arthritis. 

One of the biggest promise is that you can give yourself the benefit of stress reduction, that you perform your yoga exercises regularly. Yoga postures induce deep relaxation and help you avoid fatigue and tension. Deep breathing normalizes blood pressure and freed from those tensions, which are for head and back pain, insomnia and stomach pains responsible. 

Meditation gives you an extra bonus skin care. For deep relaxation, which occurs often during meditation, supports the balancing of several sub-doshas of Vata, which are participants in the bloodstream. The skin of longtime meditators often develops a special glow and shine. 

The key question for you is how the way you find appropriate meditation and how to perform this then ever! A good teacher can make a big difference, as he answers your questions and help in overcoming your initial difficulties. 

Put thus diminish for a personal body and skin care program found that matches your Ayurvedic constitution; do this, the effect of environmental factors on your skin - and you will enjoy an exterior blasting, which is a reflection of your inner balance and your overall well-being
