Deepak Chopra: the goal of this exercise is to give the body, mind and spirit vigor and force
Deepak Chopra notes that the fight against bad habits will help: meditation, exercise, Vata-balancing diet and bringing happiness everyday activities. At first glance, these concepts are very different, but they essentially represent different paths to the same goal of perfect health.
EXERCISE
Many people exercises take the form of competitions or extreme physical activity. However, it is clear that in case of any kind of addiction broke the balance of the mental and physical system of a person, it is not.
If drugs, alcohol or unhealthy eating habits have led to a sedentary lifestyle, you may want to train in such a manner as not to subject his body to sudden or excessive loads. If you have to work hard, moderate exercise also will be very useful.
Treat the exercise as an opportunity for understanding. Moving your body, listen to arise in all parts of the sensations and learn to interpret them. What can you learn about yourself, both physical and emotional side? If you some time been exposed to addiction, you may know that has completely lost its shape. Perhaps you will also understand that you want is too early to stop the exercise or continue it for too long. This understanding is no less important than the fact that exercises your muscles and tendons. With the understanding begins to resume your connection with your physical essence of communication, which, perhaps, has long been aborted due to generated these or other bad habits Vata imbalance.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Starting to execute the training program, refer to the following three principles. They will be useful for you when you accumulate some experience. These principles are quite different from the competition-oriented "work ethic", usually associated with training in the West, but they are the basis of Ayurvedic ideas about how you can use the body to strengthen the spirit.
Train no more than half of their capabilities. Most people are concerned, not giving yourself should load, but excessive load no better than insufficient. Even if you are some time not training, starting to physical exercise, you will be able to very accurately assess their robustness. If, for example, swim five laps, you will feel that, if necessary, will be able to swim twenty, don't swim more than ten rounds. Remember that the goal of training is not to bring themselves to exhaustion, and to become more vigorous and hardy. As your physical qualities will improve your level of half of the margin of safety, of course, will increase. So following the "principle of fifty percent" in no way prevents you from entering the high levels of efficiency.
Try to train every day. If you don't want to train, if you train three or four days in a row, I feel exhausted, you probably crossed half the limit. The training program of any duration should be such as to give pleasure and to increase motivation. Replacing the principle of "no pain, no achievements" to "minimum voltage, maximum achievement", you will be able to derive from the exercise benefits without depleting its energy resources.
Use as an indicator of the intensity of the workout your breathing and sweating. If you find that, doing exercises, you have to breathe through the mouth, this is another indication that you are overloaded. Convulsive breath and intense sweating means you are putting your body too much stress. The frequency of your breathing is one of the best indicators of the effectiveness of the exercises. If you breathe slowly and deeply, without straining, then you are at the proper level.
EXERCISES AND DOSHAS
Ayurveda teaches that each person is unique, and the truth of this situation is especially evident when it comes to training. Just as there is not equally good for all prescription drug, there is no training program that is suitable to everyone. However there are some principles of training that can be associated with three main mental and physical types.
People of Kapha-type, generally speaking, useful an intense workout with a very serious burden. With their stout and muscular physique, Kapha individuals should not allow yourself indulgences and to resist the inherent tendency to sedentary lifestyle. People of Pitta-type, conversely, tend to require your body too much. If your dominant dosha is Pitta, you should Orient yourself to a relaxing exercise, recreational rather than competitive plan. For people Vata type is best suited for light exercise is especially important given the fact that addictive behavior is almost always generates a Vata imbalance, regardless of natural dosha-type person.
Among Vata-balancing activities can be called short hikes, light aerobics, Cycling, however, is better in this respect, perhaps, yoga exercises. Despite the fact that many people Yoga is associated with acrobatic poses, trances and all sorts of asceticism, it is generally misleading. The Sanskrit word "Yoga" means "Union" and its real goal is the unification of body, mind and spirit. Yoga exercises, of course, useful for the muscles and the cardiovascular system, but they also contribute to the removal of the concerns and focus of consciousness. These qualities make Yoga is particularly effective in calming Wool.
Because Vata is associated with the elements of air and ether, her calm is achieved through exercise, creating "prizemlyayasj" effect due to the inclination of the body to its center or head to the ground. These postures should take a leisurely, stress-free. As in the case of all yogic exercises, you need to remember that proper breathing is important no less than the poses. Try to breathe through the nose, deeply and rhythmically. Create yourself by breathing a sense of balance, calmness and inner strength.
