Yog Yoga With Mindfulness - 1363 Words

Yoga with mindfulness Yoga is a mindful physical practice that brings mindfulness to the body in movement. It also offers other health benefits such as rejuvenating the body by keeping bones, muscles, joints, organs and nerves healthy, flexible and supple. Just as in mindful sitting, mindful yoga brings awareness to your breath, thoughts, and emotions as you practice, but it also adds focus on your movement and posture so you will need to wear comfortable clothing that will not restrict your movements. You will also need to make sure you have enough space to do the movements, and might prefer a yoga mat or a carpeted floor. If you are not very flexible or do not exercise regularly, it is best to start out slow and work your way up. A Word of Caution: Everyone’s body is different and some of us may not be as flexible as others. It is better to start your practice slowly and build than to possibly hurt yourself. Also if a posture is hurting it is better to get out of it earlier than to stay in it longer and hurt more. If you are unable to do a particular posture, it is okay to skip it.
