YOGA: VIDEO #2

Yoga asanas are specific body positions which open the energy channels and psychic centres. Asanas are classified into three groups: beginners, intermediate and advanced.

The beginners group should be performed by those who have never practised yoga before. This group consists of elementary techniques designed to prepare the body and mind for major and meditation asanas.

These practices are no way inferior to the advanced asanas and are very useful in improving physical health.

Included in this group are the pawanmuktasana series, eye exercises, relaxation, pre-meditation and meditation poses, asanas performed from vajrasana, standing asanas, surya and Chandra namaskara.

In Sanskrit these practices are referred to as ‘sukshma vyayama’, which means subtle exercise. The word ‘pawan’ means wind or prana; ‘mukta’ means release and ‘asana’ means pose. Therefore. Pawanmuktasana means a group of asanas that remove any blockages preventing the free flow of energy in the body and mind.

Pawanmuktasana is divided into three distinctive groups of asanas: the anti-rheumatic group, the digestive/ abdominal group and the shakti bandha group to release blocks.

All three groups supplement each other, stimulating and encouraging a free flow of energy throughout the body. Practitioners are advised to perfect each group before attempting the major asanas.

LAUGHTER YOGA: VIDEO #22

हास्य-योग करने की शुद्ध विधि इस विडियो में सुन्दर व सरल ढंग से समझायी गयी है. इसे देखकर आप सही ढंग से हास्य-योग करना सीख सकते हैं और सिखा सकते हैं. हास्य-योग के चार चरणों को इस विडियो में समझाया गया है. ये चार चरण हैं:

१. ताली बजाना

३. बच्चों की तरह मस्ती
४. हास्य व्यायाम

This video explains in a simple and beautiful manner how to do Laughter Yoga in the correct manner. After watching this video, you can learn and teach the four basic steps of Laughter Yoga.

The four steps of Laughter Yoga are:

1. Clapping and chanting
2. Deep breathing
3. Child like playfulness
4. Laughter Exercises

हास्य-योग बिना किसी कारण हंसी और प्राणायाम का मिश्रण है. कोई भी बिना चुटकुलों के, यहाँ सिर्फ हास्य व्यायामों के माध्यम से देर तक लगातार हंस सकते हैं. बच्चों की तरह मस्ती और नज़रें मिलने से हंसी वास्तविक हंसी में परिवर्तित हो जाती है और एक-दूसरे की देखा-देखी सब खुलकर हंसने लगते हैं.

Laughter Yoga is a unique concept of prolonged voluntary laughter created by an Indian physician Dr Madan Kataria in the year 1995 in Mumbai. We begin laughter as an exercise and it soon becomes contagious by eye contact and childlike playfulness.

LAUGHTER YOGA: VIDEO #21

Gibberish is a language that has no words, only sounds. It is the language that the kids speak when they are born. Gibberish meditation clears the clutter from the mind.

Laughter yoga is a unique technique by which anyone can laugh without the use of jokes, comedy or humour. We permit one joke occasionally in laughter sessions – Gibberish joke. It is the best joke in the world. After hearing it, everyone pretends to laugh like mad – rolling on the floor laughter (ROFL)!
