Psychological Shift behind Yoga

Author: Chanakya Ganguly | Posted on: 17th, Jun, 2020

This is the associated text with the Yoga Session video, which describes the poses in that order.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Start with each pose 1 time, and hold each pose for a count of 100. Slowly
increase the count of each pose to 2-3 times. Also, increase the Breathwork
from 20 rounds to 30 and 50 rounds. Meditation starts with 25 rounds then
moves to 50 and then to 108. Slowly increase capacity month after month,
until it becomes part of natural behavior to appreciate the beauty of silence.
==================================================================
– Forward bends – energize, create awareness and focus
– Backbends – open the heart, release tension
– Balancing poses – build greater physical and mental balance
– Warrior poses – balance, rise up, become strong, build resilience
– Hip-opening poses – open the root chakra, emotional healing
– Cat-cow pose – tone the Vagus nerve
– Savasana (corpse pose) – calm the nervous system, allow introspection,
  connect with issues, let go
– Meditation – build focus and calmness at a deeper level, connect with
  issues, let go, build spirituality
