About the Book

Yoga has a long history. It is an integral subjective science. Its spiritual mental or physical import cannot be separated from each other. According to Panini, the Grammarian, the word Yoga is derived from two roots, viz. Yujir and Yuja one referring to Yoking (Yujvir Yoga), and the other referring to mental concentration (Yuj Samadhi) and to sense control. Yoga is an integral part of our lifestyle. It removes the impurities from the level of mind and unites everything with the spirit. For instance, insomnia could be connected to stress, anxiety or depression. You have to address that issue instead of merely taking medication. This way, you have a wider perception of your own mind, body, thoughts and emotions and there's more clarity and you are able to guide your prana (life force) in a positive way to progress in life. Yogic asanas impart physical and mental health all over the body by controlling, regulating and balancing the effect over the sympathetic arid parasympathetic nervous system. Through regular practice of Yoga normal physiological activities of nervous system, flexibility and contractibility of muscles, vital capacity of lungs, blood circulation etc such biological processes are toned-up. A regular practice of Deep Pranayarma, Shavasana helps to regulate inspiration and expiration, which in turn, provides adequate amount of oxygen in the body. Oxygen gets attached to blood and circulates the entire body. The present book entitled Yoga and Health discusses all the aspects of Yoga from health point of view. The text are written in a lucid form and written in simple colloquial English.
