All of the articles in this work originally appeared in The New York Times. eISBN: 9781508004035 The New York Times Company New York, NY www.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/tbooks Yoga After 50 By KELLY COUTURIER May 1, 2013 While many yoga classes across the country seem to cater to the youthful enthusiast who wants to sweat his or her way through an hour-and-a-half workout, a growing number of longtime yoga devotees are raising questions about the best way to safely continue a yoga practice into midlife and beyond. “I suspect that yoga was at times an old person’s sport, and that it has prolonged the life and liveliness of people over the millennia,” said Dr. Loren Fishman, a back-pain specialist in Manhattan who uses yoga in his rehabilitation practice and has written extensively about yoga as an adjunct to medical treatment. “Designed appropriately and taken in proper dose,” he said, “it is certainly safe.” Carrie Owerko, a New York-based teacher of Iyengar yoga who has been a yoga student for decades, agreed. “Yoga can be practiced fully and deeply at any age,” she said, with an added caution that “the practice has to change as the body changes.” Dr. Fishman noted that aging brings impairments of range, motion, strength and balance that can require modifications, even among veteran yogis, like using the support of a chair or the wall for many poses.

  • Yoga: a Competition?
    JOY: The Journal of Yoga Yoga: A Competition? By Nikita Goel Recently there has been a debate going on in the world of yoga: whether or not yoga should be considered an Olympic sport. This debate has become increasingly important as yoga has been pushed onto the world stage with the first annual International Yoga Day, celebrated on June 21st. The debate has caused a rift in the yoga community, with many puzzled practitioners in each camp. Rajashree Chaudhury, the founder of the USA Yoga Federation and the one to introduce the idea of competitive yoga, said in an interview that “Raja yoga is the mental practice and incorporates meditation, pranayama, and mudra. What are the benefits of having a raja yoga practice? The benefit is spirituality. Can spirituality be measured? No. And we don’t try. What we are, what we are actually doing in the competition, is only hatha yoga. What’s the benefit of hatha yoga? Physical. What do you need to do hatha yoga? Physical body. That’s it. Breathing and spirit is a part of any sport. So that’s why hatha yoga can be a sport.”1 This leads us to the question that lies at the heart of the debate: “what is the purpose of yoga?” I, and many others, would argue that the point of yoga is to hone our minds, guide us on a spiritual path and reach a peaceful state. Competition, on the other hand, has been proven to increase pressure. Based on research by Shira Taylor Gura, hatha yoga is an ancient mind- body exercise which uses breathing and postures to relax the mind and body.

  • Naked Emperors
    Naked emperors “People come to me and think yoga is relax. They think little flower, little ting sound, some chanting, hanging crystal… No! Not for you! Waste of time! Here I chop off your dick and play ping-pong with your balls. You know ping-pong? That is yoga!” Bikram Choudhury (quoted in Hell-Bent) I have wanted to write about Bikram Choudhury for a long time: the infamous Bikram, the hot yoga man. First, though, some background. I have practiced yoga for 20 years. In that time I have twice been to Bikram classes: once in London and once in California. Two good friends of mine with long-established yoga and spiritual practices swear by their regular Bikram sweat. I know of a senior Ashtanga teacher who has had the Bikram practice as her guilty secret. Is this the yoga equivalent deep-fried Mars bar? I know of outstanding teachers who started on that slippery mat in all the heat – who did their trainings with the man himself, who then earned their living as Bikram teachers. I have seen the snobbery towards those who practice this form as if it isn’t ‘real’ yoga — whatever that may be. To start at the beginning: I think that there can be some assumptions about the man behind the myths. At best, he is portrayed as bit of an idiot – at worst, a power-crazed megalomaniac obsessed with bling. Ridiculous ‘explanations’ are made for his behaviour: “he’s from a region in India where it’s considered normal to tell stories with a little ‘flair’ so what he says must be taken with a grain of salt”.

By examining the previous literature, our present review offers recommendations concerning the utility of Yoga for the prevention and management of osteoporosis and its related fractures. There is conflicting evidence that Yoga can help build bone mineral density (BMD). The mixed findings regarding the effects of yoga on bone could be due to different types of Yoga being used in research studies that are not performed at a moderate or high intensity as recommended by the American College of Sports Medicine to positively affect bone. Many forms of Yoga also do not generate enough ground reaction force to positively improve bone health. Yoga, however, has been shown to improve balance which may potentially prevent falls and thus osteoporosis-related fractures associated with falls. Thus Yoga could be integrated into physical therapy care.

  • TEACHING CONCEPTS and TECHNIQUES of YOGA to CHILDREN Yogacharya Dr
    TEACHING CONCEPTS AND TECHNIQUES OF YOGA TO CHILDREN Yogacharya Dr. ANANDA BALAYOGI BHAVANANI MBBS, ADY, DPC, DSM, PGDFH, PGDY, FIAY Chairman ICYER at Ananda Ashram and Programme Coordinator, ACYTER, JIPMER, Puducherry. Email: [email protected] Website: www.icyer.com, www.rishiculture.org Abstract: Yoga has a lot to offer children in terms of their health as well as complete well being. Yoga offers us a tool by which we can provide a safe and healthy future for our beloved children. Yoga is both preventive as well as therapeutic for health problems that face children and is also rehabilitative in many situations. It is also important to understand the special needs of the children when teaching them Yoga and methods to create interest in them for this great jewel of our cultural heritage. Yoga helps children cultivate conscious awareness and increases self-awareness and self-confidence. This article describes the health needs of children, as well as the benefits of Yoga for children. In addition, the author describes ways by which the teaching of Yoga for children can be more meaningful as experienced in Ananda Ashram at Pondicherry. Benefits of Yoga Sport in stimulating children to take up the practice of Yoga is described along with important Yoga practices for children such as play Yoga, Asanas, Pranayamas, Kriyas, Mudras, relaxation and teaching of Yoga theory. Yogic values need to be introduced to children in order to make them aware and conscious of these wonderful concepts of daily living, which are qualities to be imbibed with joy, and not learnt with fear or compulsion.

  • A BRIEF HISTORY and INTRODUCTION to YOGA SPORT by Yogacharya Dr
    A BRIEF HISTORY AND INTRODUCTION TO YOGA SPORT By Yogacharya Dr. ANANDA BALAYOGI BHAVANANI, Hon General Secretary PONDICHERRY YOGASANA ASSOCIATION 25, 2nd Cross, Iyyanar Nagar, Pondicherry -13. Tel: 2241561 www.geocites.com/yognat2001/p_y_a Yoga is an art and science that developed from the core of Sanathana Dharma.The Yogic life is the living of a unified holistic concept that assures positive health, happiness, longevity and spiritual evolution. The goals of the Yogi are the sustained struggle against past conditioning, an attempt to control one’s inner environment in order to focus inward. Yoga is isometric, pitting one part of the body against the other and the Yogi strives to be “more perfect today, than he/she was yesterday”. It is practically impossible for classical Yogasanas, Pranayamas and other Yoga practices to harm the practitioner when they are performed in the proper manner. Though the world of sports and that of Yoga lie on nearly opposite poles, they have a lot to offer one another. They can stimulate, strengthen and benefit the practitioners of either science to a great extent when approached properly and with an understanding of their respective merits and limitations. Yogasana competitions can be an effective link between Yoga and sports. It is now necessary for the practitioners of Yoga and sports to understand the benefits of their close association with one another and create the needed framework in which both can complement each another more effectively. The association between these two sciences can provide humankind with a disciplined, strong, efficient and healthy body and mind for further evolution towards the Divine.

A native of Bethlehem, Pa. Mar 17, Robyn rated it it was amazing Shelves: yoga , If you practice yoga, read this book. His experiences make me happy to remain on the sidelines of this rather cultish phenomenon. The writing is superb. Just as you wouldn't go to a tennis class if you didn't care for the teacher or a Zumba class if you didn't I have practiced yoga for years. If you don't practice yoga, read it anyway — you may learn something about the impulse for self-transcendence. Visit the Australia site Continue on UK site.
