Yoga-Long lives the sweet-smelling

Those are from this place and start the cardinal differences between Yogaradzhem Boris Sakharov and Soviet poetry Middy product.  Sakharov said that deodorant soap that we actively and daily use - not necessary, as it seems.  The same effect can be achieved using only cold water and did not use soap. Our body has pores, and thus runs the respiratory and excretion. Hot water and chemical composition of cosmetic products quickly to cope with the problem of smell, but at the same time they cause the skin to an enhanced production of sweat and grease. Because the effect is immediate, but short-lived. Of course, the hands, feet, face and the junction of these parts of the body itself should be washed with soap and water, but for the rest of the body constantly soap is not required.  It should be used only for periodic removal from the body of dust and dirt. Indian texts do not write about soaps, but the fact that they mention alum, clay and katohu, which by its very nature and are substitutes for soap. Yoga Boris Sakharov offers to women, such an experiment: after shaving armpits treat one armpit with soap and water, and the second - just wash well with cold water.  After a while, says Yogaradzh, you feel that where it was washed with soap, there was a characteristic smell of sweat, and where it was processed with cold water, the smell is not so clear. Hot tub yogic culture does not deny, but considers them only as a remedy for some diseases. Water for bathing should be cold. As already stated, the purpose of washing the body of a yogi is not only its purification, but also closer to nature.  And nature, as we know, no provision for hot tubs.  The purpose of a Yogi - do not try to change nature, and live in harmony with it, according to its laws. Should be washed every time before yoga practitioners.  Well take a cool shower before meditation - such a procedure has a positive effect on the mind, can out of my head and worry and concentrate on the intended business. Try not to overuse cosmetics.  If you need to moisturize your body or get rid of any problems with the skin, will come to the aid of natural cosmetics. Use the recipes of grandmothers instead of chemicals. No need to read Indian recipes of traditional medicine - we live in another country, in another climate, and therefore our body is more receptive exactly what is growing around us. And many European experts confirm that this advice a lot of useful information.  For example, that you should not abuse the soap, will tell you any beautician.  As that cold water hardens the body, and relaxes its hot and makes the skin dull and decrepit. So, comrade Middy, no need to chase us with a washcloth and soap.  We do not chimney sweeps, we yogi sty!
