Shanti Yoga Teacher Training Asana Supplemental Handout 1 Key Concepts and Terms from Classical (Patanjali), Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga, Asana 1, Hailey June, 2014 Asana offers time-honored techniques for feeling more at home in your body. When you feel better, you not only enjoy asana practice, but you also have the energy necessary to continue your exploration of the Self, which is the soul of yoga. When you approach the poses with an open mind and loving heart, your journey remains fresh and rewarding as you make the poses your own ~ Judith Lasater Asanas are a doorway to the true nectar of yoga. ~ Patricia Walden Biologically our bodies are constantly trying to achieve homeostasis in order to survive. Asana challenges, allow our body to find its own homeostasis. (Balance) Asana is the most well-known aspect of yoga in the West, but is actually just one part of a wider philosophy, the third limb of Patanjali’s classical yoga system, the Yoga Sutra (200 BC - 200 CE). The first two limbs, the Yamas and the Niyamas, provide the foundation for the third limb, Asana. It’s essential that they’re considered when practicing Asana. Yamas: Ahimsa (nonviolence), Satya (truthfulness), Asetya (non-stealing), Brahmacharya (right use of life energy), Aparigrahah (non-grasping, non-greediness). Niyamas: Saucha (cleanliness), Santosa (contentment), Tapas (heat, discipline), Svadhyaya (self-study), Isvarapranidhanani (Surrender) Specific asanas, as we know them, were not addressed in the Sutras.

Yoga for Chakra Balancing
Yoga for Chakra Balancing by Ula Moleda There are seven major power center in our body called Chakras. Chakras is a Sanskrit word which means 'wheel or disc'. Each of those centers correlates to our endocrine system which mediates the intimate relationship of body and mind - emotions such as love or hate, anger, rage or grief reflect hormonal activity. A severe shock or tragedy upsets the whole system and can cause illness. In addition the chakras also correlate to levels of consciousness, archetypal elements, colors, sounds, developmental stages of life, planets and much more. The state of each chakra reflects the health of certain area of our body - our psychological, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. There are some people who compare chakras in our body to database in the computer. That actually might give you even better picture - imagine that every event, thought, experience you had (have and will have) is filtered through these chakra databases, and stored into your cells. Just imagine all that stuff being stored in you - all negative and positive thoughts you feed yourself every second, people you surround yourself with, the projection of your experiences, your life, your dreams. How ''Your computer'' look like? How does it feel? There are so many different therapies which are shown to balance, energize, heal and profoundly affect our state of mind and health. The knowledge of chakras, what they represent and how we can help to sustain the healthy flow of energy in them will help you to choose the right therapy for yourself. Chakra healing maintains the natural balance of the body and the flow of life energy. -
