Our products have been developed through extensive long term research and also with the feedback from several yoga masters and various customers. Here we have answered all our customer's clarifications and queries with utmost accuracy.
1. Can I do Yoga at home?
One of the great things about yoga is that you can do it almost anywhere. Beginners wondering how to get started should first attend as many classes as possible so they can benefit from the expert advice of a teacher.
2. Do I have to be vegetarian to practice Yoga?
The first principle of yoga philosophy is ahimsa, which means nonharming to self and others. Some people interpret this to include not eating animal products. If you are considering becoming a vegetarian, be sure to take into account your personal health issues as well how your choices will affect those with whom you live. Being a vegetarian should not be something that you impose on others–that kind of aggressive action in itself is not an expression of ahimsa.
3. Can Yoga help to control high blood pressure?
Yoga promotes a feeling of calm and relaxation as well as bodily awareness, so some people can experience help in this. Belly or diaphragmatic breathing reduces stress. Pranayama (controlled breathing) techniques, called Nadi Shodhana, are very helpful. Avoid the Shoulder Stand, Headstand and Downward Dog. Also approach the Warrior 1 and 2, the Mountain, Triangle, Half Moon, Tree, Standing Squat and Symbol of Yoga with care and do not hold these poses for more than a few breaths.
4. Will Yoga make me taller?
If you are a fully grown adult, you won't grow as a result of Yoga. However, a regular Yoga practice will improve your posture, which will have a similar effect. A regular program of asana (postures) and pranayama (breathing) will do the trick. The postures outlined on the Yoga Site's Posture page are good place to start. You may find that one of the side effects of practicing Yoga is that you no longer care as much about your height. If you are young and still growing, regular Yoga practice and a good diet will help you reach your full height.
5. How many times per week should I practice?
Yoga is amazing–even if you only practice for one hour a week; you will experience the benefits of the practice. If you can do more than that, you will certainly experience more benefits. I suggest starting with two or three times a week, for an hour or an hour and a half each time. If you can only do 20 minutes per session, that's fine too. Don't let time constraints or unrealistic goal be an obstacle–do what you can and don't worry about it. You will likely find that after awhile your desire to practice expands naturally and you will find yourself doing more and more.
6. Can Yoga be helpful in the weight reduction?
Yes, only if Yoga practices like Yogasana and Pranayama can improve the digestion capacity of the body which reduces excessive fat consumption of the body.
7. Can you reduce sleep by practicing Yoga?
Yes, being Yoga as Relaxation Technique, the practice of it reduces the Body’s consumption in daily routine. The sound sleep obtained through Yoga can give peace of mind.
8. Which is the best time to perform Yoga?
Early in the morning, But if not possible then, you can practice Yoga in the evening at least Four hours after your lunch.
9. Is there any age limit while performing Yoga?
Yoga can be practiced at all ages above 6 years. It can be practiced at the age of 80, years. But one should do only those asanas that are suitable to one’s physical conditions.
10. Should I do Yoga while I am pregnant?
Yoga is a great way to strengthen the pelvic area, normalize thyroid function and blood pressure, and reduce stress, all of which are good for the baby. It is fine to continue modified practice if you were doing yoga before; if you are just beginning, it is best to work with a teacher who has prenatal Yoga experience. In general you should avoid strain, compressing the abdomen, and inverted postures, especially in the later stages.
