How Bikram Yoga Helps Heal the Body

With students back in school and snowbirds back for “season” there is an increased potential to catch a bug – whether someone is passing it around the classroom or it is traveling here from up north. There are preventative measures that can be exercised to decrease the risk of catching an illness.

In general, regular exercise can help ward off colds and flus by strengthening the immune system. The heat and humidity in the Bikram yoga studio help to enhance this benefit. The Bikram yoga practice also works every ligament, muscle, joint, and organ in the body which in turn can help the body heal from the inside out.

The body’s natural defense system is to raise its internal temperature to fight off infections or viruses that may come into its path. The heat and humidity in the yoga studio mimic this natural process. It also helps to clear nasal passages and makes breathing easier.

Sweat is another powerful healer. It works to:

Help the skin heal wounds.

Help rid the body of toxins and replacing lost fluids with fresh cleansing water. It is like an internal cleaning for the body.

Releases a natural antibiotic called dermcidin, produced by our skin when we sweat. This is a highly efficient tool to fight germs and other dangerous bugs.

A regular Bikram yoga practice lends positive effects on the mind and body. Some of its positive benefits also include:

Bhakti Yoga Helps You Find Peace

Yoga helps people achieve a tranquil mind. Bhakti yoga does the same by allowing practitioners to form a connection with God. Through mantra chanting, where you repeat positive affirmations to yourself, bhakti yoga practitioners delve deep into their inner selves to connect with God.

Bhakti yoga helps you acquire inner peace, realise life’s true values, and see what is truly important to you. Practitioners can grasp true and lasting peace through not only their connection to God but also through reaffirming their true values and priorities.

Bhakti yoga also allows you to be less dependent on real world circumstances. Worldly notions such as beauty, pleasure, status, success, and wealth will not plague your mind once you have acquired peace. Your health will definitely benefit from the reduced stress, doubts, fears, and insecurities.

Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga

Vision of an ideal Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga learning and resources to reach it

March 19, 2018

Fortunately, we do not live in a perfect world that would be a major obstacle to all progress and learning. Samsara and Nirvana would be one and the same river idling on the banks of an eternity whose tamasic lament would implore the terrible Kali to do her work of destruction so that the world may be reborn in the creative chaos of Prakriti.

Blessed are we then to live in what strongly resembles Kali Yuga with the countless opportunities to test our beautiful practice of Yoga.

Before formulating what for me would be an ideal learning of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, I would like to sincerely thank all the dedicated teachers who transmit their art day after day to the best of their abilities and the expectations of their students.

Namaste.

So far my experience of learning from this noble school of Yoga has resembled the reconstruction of a mandala with multiple pieces scattered around in the form of led classes, Mysore sessions, workshops, lectures, documentaries, numerous readings and researches, hours of online video, thousands of kilometers traveled and above all assiduous practices integrated into everyday life.

The diversity of approaches and teachers is certainly beneficial up to a point, but for a beginner, the lack of consistency and above all of a global vision is quite disconcerting.

Perhaps this is part of a modern rite of initiation, certainly less demanding than when some aspiring yogis came to cut off one hand in order to show their determination to enter into the ser[……]

Acro Yoga

Taking yoga to new heights with acro yoga

December 6, 2017

A Charlottetown yoga instructor is taking the fear out of flying — Marie-Eve Filion is teaching acro yoga, a combination of acrobatics and yoga.

Filion, 30, recently moved to P.E.I. from Montreal, where there’s a large acro-yoga community and where she received certification to teach it last summer from AcroYoga Montreal.

I enjoyed that freedom, of trusting another person to hang onto me.

— Jack Wheeler”It’s really scary at first — going past this feeling of being afraid,” Filion said. After that, “it’s easier than it looks … you might just fall in love with it.”

Jack Wheeler had tried acro yoga before and brought his 11-year-old son Nathan to class.

“I thought I’d bring him just to give him the opportunity to fly a little bit,” Wheeler said.

“It was really fun,” said Nathan, whose favourite part was “being in the air.”

“I like the freedom of sometimes letting go,” said Wheeler, who is six feet three inches tall. “Marie-Eve has done very well in getting us to trust each other, so that was a big part of it too — I enjoyed that freedom, of trusting another person to hang onto me.”
