McCall | 592 pages | 31 Jul 2007 | Random House USA Inc | 9780553384062 | English | New York, United States Yoga as Medicine by Yoga Journal, Timothy McCall: | : Books If you are new to yoga, welcome. Yoga can change your life. If you are sick, it can help you feel better. If you are depressed or anxious, tired Yoga as Medicine: The Yogic Prescription for Health and Healing the time, addicted to drugs, or bothered by low back pain, yoga can set you on the path to recovery. And for people suffering temporary symptoms—such as tension headaches, hot flashes, or sinus pressure—specific yoga postures, breathing techniques, and other practices can bring relief. As someone who has been an MD for over twenty years, I can tell you that yoga is quite simply the most powerful system of overall health and well-being I have ever seen. Even if you are currently among what might be called the temporarily healthy, as preventive medicine, yoga is as close to one-stop shopping as you can find. The absence of symptoms Yoga as Medicine: The Yogic Prescription for Health and Healing in no way equated with health in yoga. Health to the yogi extends far beyond not having a headache or knee pain—or even being cured of cancer. It is about optimizing the function of every system in your body from the muscles to digestion, circulation, and immunity. It is about emotional well-being, spiritual resilience, and buoyancy, even joy.

  • The Secret Power of Yoga
    Praise for The Secret Power of Yoga “This sweetly voiced explication of the Yoga Sutras is disarming in its simplicity, charming and inviting the reader into the happiness of realizing that she/he is actually a manifestation of the Divine. I read it smiling all the way, and learning yoga philosophy as I was doing it.” —SYLVIA BOORSTEIN, author of Pay Attention, for Goodness’ Sake: The Buddhist Path of Kindness “Nischala Joy Devi has provided a dynamic new interpretation of the Yoga Sutras, one of the most important but esoteric guidebooks to deeper Yoga practice, that will make this wonderful ancient teaching accessible to modern readers and useful in their daily life. She has explained the essence of Yoga in a simple, direct, and relevant manner for all sincere students of the spiritual path.” —DAVID FRAWLEY (VAMADEVA SHASTRI), author of Yoga and Ayurveda “Weaving together her deep knowledge of the Yoga Sutras with her many years of teaching and studying, Nischala Devi has created a very readable and insightful book. Her words ring with the authenticity of a committed practitioner, and the exercises she oers the reader can be truly life changing. But I must admit, I loved her funny and inspiring stories the best! A book to be read again and again.” —JUDITH HANSON LASATER, PH.D., P.T., yoga teacher since 1971 and author of six books, including A Year of Living Your Yoga “Nischala Devi has given us a fresh and compelling new look into the mysteries of one of yoga’s most important scriptures. Bravo! I heartily recommend her new book to all who want to understand (and trod) the practical path of liberation so brilliantly described by Sri Patanjali.” —STEPHEN COPE, author of The Wisdom of Yoga: A Seeker’s Guide to Extraordinary Living “This book has the feel of divinely guided inspiration.

  • Thriving in Healthcare: How Pranayama, Asana, and Dyana Can Transform Your Practice
    Thriving in Healthcare: How pranayama, asana, and dyana can transform your practice Melissa Lea-Foster Rietz, FNP-BC, BC-ADM, RYT-200 Presbyterian Medical Services Farmington, NM [email protected] Professional Disclosure I have no personal or professional affiliation with any of the resources listed in this presentation, and will receive no monetary gain or professional advancement from this lecture. Talk Objectives Provide a VERY brief history of yoga Define three aspects of wellness: mental, physical, and social. Define pranayama, asana, and dyana. Discuss the current evidence demonstrating the impact of pranayama, asana, and dyana on mental, physical, and social wellness. Learn and practice three techniques of pranayama, asana, and dyana that can be used in the clinic setting with patients. Resources to encourage participation from patients and to enhance your own practice. Yoga as Medicine It is estimated that 21 million adults in the United States practice yoga. In the past 15 years the number of practitioners, of all ages, has doubled. It is thought that this increase is related to broader access, a growing body of research on the affects of the practice, and our understanding that ancient practices may hold the key to healing modern chronic diseases. Yoga: A VERY Brief History Yoga originated 5,000 or more years ago with the Indus Civilization Sanskrit is the language used in most Yogic scriptures and it is believed that the principles of the practice were transmitted by word of mouth for generations. Georg Feuerstien divides the history of Yoga into four catagories: Vedic Yoga: connected to ritual life, focus the inner mind in order to transcend the limitations of the ordinary mind Preclassical Yoga: Yogic texts, Upanishads and the Bhagavad-Gita Classical Yoga: The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, the eight fold path Postclassical Yoga: Creation of Hatha (willful/forceful) Yoga, incorporation of the body into the practice Modern Yoga Swami (master) Vivekananda speaks at the Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893.

  • Focusnyc Aliza M. Yoga
    FocusNYC Aliza M. Yoga Aliza is a native New Yorker who spent much of her childhood on the bench keeping score. Until she discovered yoga, she was uncoordinated and always the last one picked. So she studied musical theatre and communications at Emerson College, and went on to work as a professional actor for many years. Fueled by competition but burned out from stress, Aliza sought out and discovered something more grounding in yoga. It was the physical practice of asana that originally enticed her, but it ultimately led to something much more satisfying – for her body, mind and spirit. She wanted to share these benefits with others in an accessible way and became a certified Yoga Instructor. Committed to serving all populations, Aliza’s yoga sessions range from dynamic and energetic to restorative and blissful. Her style is engaging and individualized to needs and preferences in all settings. Aliza has taught privately, in health clubs and spas, in corporate settings and even at the college level. Her areas of expertise include the history, philosophy, anatomy and physiology of yoga, as well as asana, pranayama and meditation, and working with special populations.

  • Inside Ecumenism
    Volume XVI, No. 3, August 2009 Ecumenism by Sri Swami Satchidananda Ecumenism is Integral Yoga. Though we follow one teacher, we learn to respect all other teachers. The teachings may vary, but the central teaching is always the same—to know our True Self. That is the first and foremost goal. Once we know the Self, then it is easy to know all other things. Until we “know” our Self, all our knowing will be a big “no.” Because we try to know everything through our conditioned minds, all our knowing will be conditioned, prejudiced, limited, and colored. Real knowing is only with the pure, neutral, and unconditioned mind. We should have that clear and uncolored vision, and that is the purpose underlying all these practices—to remove all the coloring. The mind should be freed from all these limitations and preconditioned ideas. We literally should wash the brain. Wash it clean of all colors and conditions. Don’t merely switch from one prejudice to another; simply see clearly for yourself. That is the purpose behind all the teachings—whether they originated from Moses, Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, Shankara, Krishna, Rama, or Siva—to keep the mind clean. With all that, even though all the religions teach essentially the same message, we still can appreciate the differences—just as we would want a good garden to have a variety of flowers. If you have only chrysanthemums for acres and acres, you wouldn’t even call it a garden; you would call it a farm. Even if the garden is small and doesn’t have that many flowers, if it has a variety, you call it beautiful.
