Hug to all, very happy to share knowledge about well-being emotional, mental and physical. This time I am going to give you an introduction about the postures done in Yoga and a brief explanation about Hatha Yoga; as you know there are many types of Yoga, with the purpose of uniting your body-mind-spirit. These practices are for all ages and tastes. It just depends on which one suits your needs.

Según el libro "Anatomia & Yoga" de Sanchez, Joana y Coll, Mireia hace referencia lo siguiente:

“Estas técnicas han ido apareciendo a lo largo de la historia. La bhagavad gita (siglos VII a.C) nos habla de tres tipos de Yoga como camino de liberación: Jñana Yoga (camino del discernimiento), Karma Yoga (camino de la buena acción) y Bhakti Yoga (camino del amor y la devoción). Patanjali, en su obra los Yoga-Sutra sistematiza el Raja Yoga y en cuanto al Hatha Yoga se encuentra ya mencionado en algún Upanishad y en los Puranas, aunque su práctica se cree que es mucho más antigua.

According to the book "Anatomy & Yoga" from Sanchez, Joana y Coll, Mireia. It refers to the following:

These techniques have appeared throughout history. The bhagavad gita (7th century B.C.) tells us about three types of Yoga as a path of liberation: Jñana Yoga (path of discernment), Karma Yoga (path of good action) and Bhakti Yoga (path of love and devotion). Patanjali, in his work the Yoga-Sutra systematizes Raja Yoga and as for Hatha Yoga it is already mentioned in some Upanishad and in the Puranas, although its practice is believed to be much older.

Since we already know that there are many modalities within the "Yoga World" I will be telling you more about "Hatha Yoga"(path of vital and mental force). As I mentioned in previous publications the meaning derives as follows: Ha "sun"; controls the physical and vital aspects, Tha "moon"; the moon represents the mental aspect, giving harmony to these two energies. In case of an imbalance, if the lunar one predominates it is an excess of thought and if the case is the solar one, extraversion and physical activity.

It is a simple game where we require attention and concentration; “the breath” being the element air, “meditation” connection with the whole by activating the pineal gland, “mudras” the rings necessary to circulate our energy and “the bandhas” the bonds necessary to hold you with stability. Being the main goal of Hatha Yoga, together with the realization of postures (Asanas) is the overall health of the whole being, where we will experience from a great inner peace, resistance to disease, spiritual strength, perfect coordination in body movement, flexibility in all members of the body and maintains an optimal immune system. And of course, the magic it brings to all your senses, purifying yin and yang; the great dance of energies.
