How To Meditate Like Goldilocks
If Goldilocks were to leaf through a few meditation books, she might find some approaches to be too hot, others too cold. But soon enough, we know she’d land on a system that feels “just right” to her. She always does.

Teaching Peace In Yoga Class
In conjunction with the Global Mala Project designed to unite the worldwide yoga community on the UN International Peace Day (September 22, 2007) I have been inspired to teach yoga this fall through the mantra of yoga as peace in action. Naturally some questions arise: What is peace? How do you teach peace in a yoga class?
Although everybody seems to have an innate understanding of peace, it becomes a difficult state to describe. In the context of a global community peace is understood as the cessation of war. On an individual level peace can be described as calm, serene, silence, equilibrium and harmony.
Yoga For All
India is the place of origin of the art of Yoga that refers to skill or discipline of asceticism and meditation. Today Yoga is considered as a prime tool to fight against several physical and mental deformities. This includes:
Hypertension,
Hypotension,
Stress,
Phobia,
Mania,
Depression,
Circulatory disorders,
Indigestion,
Physical ailment,
Mental disorders etc.
The burning question which is generally asked by several modern physicians is that Yoga is not an experimental verified therapy so how come an individual apply it in their life. There might be some hidden risks and side-effects which are yet unknown.

Could Yoga have all the answers to anxiety? Why is it that anxiety, stress, and unhappiness take over so many people’s lives? If you listen to a “doubting Thomas,” nothing works, but if you read below, you will see some solutions.

The struggle for direction is within our minds. We must be aware of the struggle from within.

Hatha Yoga - The Yoga Of Postures - The Ancient And Spiritual Path
It is the most popular branch of Yoga. People call it “Yoga of postures”. Hatha Yoga is so ancient, and its main concept is that a strong and relaxed body guarantees a spiritual progress. Its goals are to have a strong, healthy, flexible and relaxed body. The word “Hatha” means “sun + moon”, which symbolizes the opposite currents in the system of the human body. This is because Hatha Yoga depends on a set of exercises, which supply the body with positive and negative currents, and so, it neutralizes the harmful energies in the body and increases beneficial energies, making the person more active and productive. This is due to the stable state the body reaches on practicing it.
