International Yoga Day 2023: Achieving Fitness and Avoiding Injuries through Yoga Poses

On International Yoga Day 2023, it is crucial to understand that all yoga poses contribute to maintaining your fitness levels, provided that you take precautions to prevent injuries. Similar to any other form of exercise, yoga demands a strong foundation of strength, stability, and body awareness to perform the asanas accurately. Venturing into complex yoga poses without proper guidance can have adverse effects on your physical well-being, such as muscle pain and ligament tears.

As the world celebrates the health, wellness, and fitness benefits of yoga, it's essential to approach this practice with mindfulness. The allure of yoga might entice you to immerse yourself completely, but it is crucial to exercise caution and avoid pushing your limits excessively. Attempting intricate yoga poses and asanas without adequate preparation can lead to injuries. Hence, before delving into the realm of complex yoga postures on International Yoga Day, prioritize your safety and well-being to prevent potential harm to your muscles. Read More

Happy International Yoga Day!

Today we celebrate the ancient practice of yoga, which has been a cornerstone of Indian culture for over 5,000 years. We honor the "Father of Modern Yoga," Tirumalai Krishnamacharya (1888-1989), who played a crucial role in popularizing yoga worldwide. We also honor the original "Father of Yoga," Patanjali, who authored the celebrated yoga sutras.

_History of Yoga:_

Yoga has its roots in the Indus Valley Civilization, with evidence of yoga practices dating back to 3000 BCE. The word "yoga" comes from the Sanskrit word "yuj" meaning "to unite." Over time, yoga evolved through various traditions, including Hatha Yoga, Raja Yoga, and Bhakti Yoga.

Patanjali:

Patanjali was a Hindu author, mystic, and philosopher who authored the Yoga Sutras, a categorization of yogic thought arranged in four volumes. He is regarded as an avatar of Adi Sesha and is believed to have lived between the 2nd century BCE and the 5th century CE ¹.

Tirumalai Krishnamacharya:

Born in 1888, Krishnamacharya was a Indian yoga master, ayurvedic healer, and scholar. He studied yoga under his father and later under the revered yoga guru, Rama Mohan Brahmachari. Krishnamacharya went on to teach yoga to prominent students, including B.K.S. Iyengar, K. Pattabhi Jois, and Indra Devi, who spread yoga globally.

BENEFITS OF YOGA

Yoga offers numerous benefits, including:

- Improved flexibility and strength

- Reduced stress and anxiety
