In a conversation before International Yoga Day, he said, “Most people understand that yoga is only for keeping the body healthy or stretching. But if there is no attention in yoga, it remains incomplete.”
Pranic Sadhana associated with healing and meditation says that when yoga and meditation are done together, their benefits become deeper. Physical yoga opens the body, blood flow is good, and stability is found for meditation. At the same time, the mind calms down, stress reduces and emotional stability increases.
She believes that only yoga or meditation is also beneficial, but when both are done together, both body and mind develop. If someone does yoga only, you will get physical benefits, but old stress and mental discomfort can remain as it can. On the other hand, meditating on the body can become a challenge for many people.
The role of breath is very important in meditation. Sadhana says that taking slow and deep breaths calms the body’s nervous system. This reduces heartbeat, blood pressure is balanced and indicates relaxation to the body. When we pay attention to the breath while meditating, it helps us to stay in the present and reduces the restlessness of the mind.
how to start?
No major preparation is necessary to start meditation. Sitting silently for 2 to 5 minutes a day can be a good way. For those who cannot sit, methods like walking meditation or body scan are also beneficial. Look at meditation as a practice, not like a goal. Gradually, when it is made a habit, the mind itself starts to calm down.
