Yoga challenges push to your limits

Yoga challenges are meant to push you to your limits physically, mentally, and spiritually. Exercising daily yoga will strengthen and stretch the body in a monotonous way; it will help you feel light, refreshed, and relaxed.

Surya Namaskar, best Yoga practices ever.

Worshipping the sun in the morning is the traditional practice of Hindu uprising. And to bow down to this sun is called Surya Namaskar in Yoga practice. This Surya Namaskar has twelve sequences that are connected to many asanas. The twelve sequences of asanas are dedicated to Hindu God Surya.

What are the benefits of Surya namaskar?

One of the significant benefits of sun salutation is that it strengthens the whole body, Sun salutation stimulates the nervous system, including the brain, lower plexus, spinal cord, Helps lose weight, Glowing skin, Better digestive system,ensures regular menstrual cycle, brings down blood sugar level, improves anxiety, helps your body detox, battles insomnia.

Perfect time for Surya namaskar

The best time to greet the sun, preferably before the sun rises or at 6 a.m. 6 times a day, is enough for the Working busy person and 13 times better for others. One of the rules of sun salutation is to have the stomach empty and wait 15 minutes after consuming water. The sun salutation must be done slowly and concentrated and try to get the benefits.

Sun salutation is a science; not an art

In the purest sense, the sun salutation is the key to yoga: it enhances the body's overall strength, composes stamina, and formulates flexibility. This series of 12 postures has the benefits of both Asanas and Pranayama. It should be done very early in the morning, facing the rising sun. It combines every movement of the body with the breath, inhaling as you lengthen and stressed out and exhaling at the fold collection. However, nothing in yoga is cast in stone; it can be practised at no fixed time. Before exercising Surya Namaskar, one thing remembers surely that the stomach should be empty. Sun salutations are also an effective cardiovascular workout; it enables to increase the metabolic rate of the body. As a result, it reduces weight; it is a fundamental part of the asana practice.

The series of 12 poses of Surya Namaskar is linked to a Vinyasa. In yoga, we understand that the right step comes when it comes to proper thinking. Its connection with Surya Namaskar is that we must concentrate on adequate breathing so that there is parity in the posture and breathing is correct. When we practice this way, we remember all our turmoil. It is good to learn the steps of sun salutation from an excellent teacher who will provide you with different types of body fit. This is the main reason why the ancient Rishis recommended the practice of Surya Namaskar because the regular exercise of this technique enhances the solar plexus, which increases one's creativity and intuitive abilities.

Yoga asanas 

There are 84 Classic Yoga Asanas found in The Yoga Pradipika. The first four yoga asanas are highly recommended. Those are 

  • Siddhartha.
  • Padmasana.
  • Bhadrasana.
  • Simhasana.

Let me introduce another essential part of yoga that is called meditation. 

Meditation provides a way of learning how to let go. 

Meditation is a chronic method of motivating your mind to concentrate and shift your thoughts. Why do we meditate? Nowadays, it is not possible to stay healthy just by taking medicine as well as meditation, yoga, exercise. They keep the body healthy as well as help keep the mind thriving. If health is not well, it hurts the human organ, and people are gradually suffering from hypertension, stress, anxiety, high blood pressure, etc. And meditation helps to reduce ourselves from these and develop concentration. Remember that meditation is a part of yoga.

What are the benefits of meditation?

I am discussing the 12 health benefits of meditation: 

  • Restraints Anxiety.
  • Stimulates emotional health.
  • It helps strengthens Self-Awareness.
  • Extends attention Span. 
  • Age-related memory loss can reduce.
  • It can generate kindness.
  • May help fight addictions.
  • Decreases stress. Stress reduction is one of the most popular reasons people try meditation. 

In general, start your meditation with breathing session. One of the most popular techniques of meditation is concentration.

The execution or performance of Meditation an artistic way

The following seven examples are best-known ways to meditate:

  • Loving-kindness meditation. 
  • Body scan or refine relaxation. 
  • Mindfulness meditation. 
  • Breath awareness meditation. 
  • Kundalini yoga. 
  • Zen meditation. 
  • Metaphysical Meditation.

How do we meditate daily?

Just commit to two minutes a day and build a habit. Choose such a time and trigger — usually, the best time to wake up in the morning or at lunchtime.

The peaceful spot is the best for meditation.

·       Sit comfortably.

·    Start with just two minutes.

·       Focus on your breathing.

Yoga vigorously helps prevent memory loss, puts together focus and concentration, and increases brain functioning. The impact of postural yoga on physical and mental health has been a topic of systematic studies, with evidence that regular yoga practice yields benefits for low back pain and stress.[19][20][21] On December 1, 2016, yoga was listed by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage.[22]
