Proper exercise (Asana)

The yoga postures (Asanas) are excellent physical exercises for maintaining a high level of physical fitness. The muscles are made strong and elastic, the spine and the joints become flexible, the nervous system and the internal organs are toned. The classical system of the asanas is the best method for stress management. Proper breathing (Pranayama)

Breathing exercises (Pranayama) help us to reconnect to the battery of the body (solar plexus) and to recharge our body and mind with life force energy (Prana or Chi). Relaxation is the natural way of the body to recharge. Any classical yoga class includes techniques of relaxation (Savasana, autosuggestion) which have very positive stress relieving effects and thus enhance our physical and mental health. Proper diet (vegetarian)

A vegetarian diet is ideal for the practice of yoga. It is nutritious and healthy for the body, as well as light, which helps the mind to concentrate better and facilitates the practice of meditation. Positive thinking and meditation

A positive mind with a strong power of concentration is the key to happiness and success in Yoga and in life. The science of Raja Yoga (meditation) offers various techniques which lead to a controlled, focused, and peaceful state of mind.
