Benefit Of Yoga Part I



Karmic Yoga The Internal Element
One cannot build a seven forty seven with only cinder blocks. One cannot build much of anything that is complex when one only has .....
Yoga is a science; and indeed, in many places in the world (such as India), it is referred to as a science. This is not merely playing with words; it truly is approached as a science, which means that it is understood in terms of scientific methods.
Yogic science seeks to verify cause and effect, and build principles based upon objective observations. Indeed, in many places in the world, to be a yogic master of any credibility, one must be highly educated in the sciences, including physics and the biological sciences.
This discussion on yoga as science is important for us to include because it allows us to sensibly ask the question: what are the benefits of yoga? After all, if yoga is a faith or a belief, then asking this question isn't fair; because it's one that yoga cannot answer in terms that we can objectively understand.
Yoga is a science; as empirical and pragmatic as kinesiology, or exercise science, which seeks to understand how the body acts and reacts to changes in the internal physical environment. And even more simply than any of this: each of us has a right to ask the basic question, "why should I bother practicing yoga and what experience or benefits can I expect?"

For the last two decades various yoga practices have been brought into the mainstream. These decades could be better termed as .....
Indeed, while the experience of yoga cannot be reduced to words - just as reading a book on preparing for a marathon isn't going to actually physically prepare you to run a marathon - the goals and principles of yoga can easily be discussed.
Here's the Mayo Clinic's take on the benefits of meditation:
"Meditation is used by people who are perfectly healthy as a means of stress reduction. But if you have a medical condition that's worsened by stress, you might find the practice valuable in reducing the stress-related effects of allergies, asthma, chronic pain and arthritis, among others."
Yoga involves a series of postures, during which you pay special attention to your breathing -- exhaling during certain movements and inhaling with others. You can approach yoga as a way to promote physical flexibility, strength and endurance or as a way to enhance your spirituality.
The Mind-Body Connection
Yoga is centered on the mind-body connection. This mind-body harmony is achieved through three things:
- postures (asanas)
- proper breathing (pranayama)
- meditation
Mind and body draw inspiration and guidance from the combined practices of asanas, breathing, and meditation. As people age (to yogis, ageing is an artificial condition), our bodies become susceptible to toxins and poisons (caused by environmental and poor dietary factors).
Yoga helps us through a cleaning process, turning our bodies into a well synchronized and well-oiled piece of machinery.

Physical Benefits
By harmonizing these three principles, the benefits of yoga are attained. And just what are these benefits?
- equilibrium in the body's central nervous system

- increased breath-holding time

- improved dexterity skills.
- Improved balance
- Improved depth perception
- Improved memory
Psychological Benefits
As noted above, Yoga also delivers an array of psychological benefits; and in fact, this is a very common reason why people begin practicing it in the first place. Perhaps the most frequently mentioned psychological benefit of yoga is an improved ability to manage stress. Yoga diminishes an individual's levels of anxiety, depression, and lethargy; thus enabling him/her to focus on what's spiritual and important: achieving balance and happiness.
In part II of the Benefit of Yoga we'll reveal how yoga can help deal with stress, unhealthy habits and pain management. The benefits of Yoga go far beyond meditation and stretching, it is a way to release those toxic emotions that tend to stand in the way of living a healthy life.

Leatherman 934850 Quick-Release Pocket Clip and Lanyard Ring
RELEASE LANYARD RING & REMOVABLE
Customer Review: Much better now!
I just got my new Leatherman Wave & couldn't wait to get this pocket clip because carrying it in the belt sheath just isn't me. I can't comment on the lanyard ring because I don't plan on using it, just going in the drawer for now. This pocket clip allows me to carry my Wave with a "lower profile" & that's what I wanted. It doesn't pull your pocket down or anything, keeps it right where you need it & looks really good when attached. One concern I had about it was that it would get in the way when using the tool, luckily it's not an issue with this clip. If you're like me & don't want to carry your Leatherman in the belt sheath, get this clip, you won't be disappointed.

Stainless Steel Backpack Bottle - 16 oz / 0.5 L
Customer Review: Best Thermos Ever
This is not the first thermos i've used, but it is the best. It's design is great, fits into most car cup holders. It also allows for one handed operation. Best of all, this thermos delivers on what it promises, it is leak-proof, perfect for being bounced around in a backpack, and it keeps your hot drinks hot, cold drinks cold. But do follow the directions, and dont over fill.

The Fuse folds down to a tight, easy-to-transport 4 inches.
Leatherman's Fuse Extra-Large Multitool

The Leatherman Fuse multitool packs 12 tools into a lean, 4-inch frame.

All of the tools available in the Fuse are made from 100-percent stainless steel, engineered to the optimum grade hardness for each individual tool.

The Fuse features a system of all-locking blades. To release the interior blades, just press the grooved portion of the push-button lock and carefully rotate the blade back inside the tool. These blades are straight, and they may be sharpened by using standard sharpening methods, for easy maintenance.

Warranty

All Leatherman products are covered by a 25-year limited warranty. If within 25 years from the purchase date of your genuine Leatherman tool you find any defect in material or workmanship, you can count on the manufacturer to make it right with fast warranty service. To obtain warranty service, return your tool to Leatherman Tool Group. Depending on the tool defect, they will decide whether to repair your tool or replace it with a product of equal or greater value. No variations, upgrades or refunds are offered.

The Leatherman Tool Group and its History of Quality

In 1975, Leatherman Tool Group founder Tim Leatherman was inspired by leaky pipes and a cranky car on a budget trip to Europe -- and thus the idea for his first pocket survival tool was conceived. Since then, Leatherman has become an internationally recognized company with hundreds of employees and a wide variety of durable, versatile, stylish products. Created with bold designs and truly rugged construction, Leatherman products are a perfect addition for tool kits, emergency sets, and glove compartments everywhere.


Customer Review: Oooo! Ahh!
A neighbor's son is a US Marine and requested a Leatherman for his upcoming second tour in Iraq. He stipulated it should be inexpensive as well. I ordered two Fuses, one for him and one for me, on the reccommendation of a previous review by a US Army sargeant. I can understand why these tools are so beloved. I've only had this little device for a few days but I REALLY like it. It folds to a compact size, is reasonably durable, and has a huge number of tools contained within its frame. Its essentially a tool box on my belt. It has a place with my wallet, eye glasses, and keys. #1 upside: I have large hands and the handle is just right for me. The grips are perfect as well, non slip without being sticky. Definitely engineered in America for Americans. #1 downside: Sometimes you need to manuever around the wire cutters in the jaws of the pliers to grip a bolt. To me, it was a bit tricky at first, but that should be the worst thing about this fantastic little device.
