Yoga With Pooja

Welcome to Bloga!

gmantro — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 02:10:56 +0000

Welcome to my blog about Yoga – Bloga! I’m so excited to be able to share some of my yoga experiences with you!

I love to practice & teach yoga and have for many years. I look back today recognizing that I was raised in a unique environment…. one with insights and early trainings that I’m very thankful for. I discovered the world of yoga at the age of eleven and began teaching in my teens. My parent’s dedication, commitment and guidance have evolved my yoga discovery into a dedicated practice. Today 20 years later I would like to take the opportunity to thank my parents for raising me with yogic values.

Another person who has always stood by my side for last 13 years is my husband; I thank him for his continued support and encouragement. Yoga with Pooja also got the web interface because of his vision and endless hours in front of the computer.

I hope to pass yoga values and teachings along to my kids and inspire many more to lead this yogic life.

Please come back! I will have lots to talk about on here and I hope that we can start some good conversations on here as well!

Her Dharma is to share and spread the yogic teachings. Savithri’s teaching style reflects her personal practice of ashtanga.

She often hears people say ‘I am not flexible, so I can’t do yoga’ and would like to remove this misunderstanding. Yoga is all about ‘total awareness’ and anyone can do yoga since it can be modified and suited to each individual’s needs. In her teaching, she incorporates hands-on adjustments to help individuals align better in a posture.

Healthy Heart

One of the most studied areas of the health benefits of yoga is its effect on heart disease. Yoga has long been known to lower blood pressure and slow the heart rate. A slower heart rate can benefit people with high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. Yoga has been associated with decreased cholesterol and triglyceride levels as well as a boost in immune system function.

Full Body Flexibility

Yoga stretches not only your muscles but also all of the soft tissues of your body. That includes ligaments, tendons, and the fascia sheath that surrounds your muscles. In addition, yoga increases the range of motion in joints. It may also increase lubrication in the joints. The outcome is a sense of ease and fluidity throughout your body. No matter your level of yoga, you most likely will see benefits in a very short period of time.

Strength and Endurance

Yoga postures and breathing techniques help develop muscle strength, body posture and alignment and improve overall body strength. The frequency of practice, the degree of difficulty, and how long you hold the posture in combination with breathing techniques, will establish endurance and strength.

Weight Management

The balanced metabolism results in maintaining a healthy weight and controlling hunger. Consistent yoga practice helps find the balance and creates a more efficient metabolism. The benefits of a better metabolism along with the exercise of yoga work to keep your weight in check. Additionally, the stretching of muscles longwise helps to reduce the amount of cellulite that can build around muscles.
