Summary

� � There are nine main styles of Yoga in India, but most

of the popular styles, outside of India, are variations of Hatha Yoga.

� Hatha Yoga classes tend, among other things, to emphasize physical mastery.

� � Asanas are the physical postures, but depending

upon the class, the postures may be held for different durations, such as: A half breath (an exhale or inhale), a few breaths, or a few minutes.

� Some classes are very active, with flowing movement, heated studios up to 105 degrees Fahrenheit, and others are tranquil at around 70 degrees Fahrenheit, all year long.

� � So there is a style of Yoga for every person, and you

should be aware of what you are getting into before you start.

� You should also be aware that the doors are not locked, and if 105 degrees is too much heat, it is your call.

� � The Yoga postures release tension throughout your

body, regardless of which style you choose. The added surge of endorphins, as a result of this exercise, is another benefit.

� � Pranayama, sometimes called the Yogic science of

breathing, is cultivation of air - our most vital resource.

� You can increase the amount of oxygen in your bloodstream without classic calisthenics, but when you combine it with the postures; you have a very powerful combination for stress relief.

� � How will all this help you achieve your goals? � Simple: Once you are armed with the ability to

relieve yourself from the burdens of stress, negative obstacles, and needless worrying, you then have the ability to prioritize and learn from your mistakes.

� � If you make a mistake, so does everyone else. � Nobody is keeping track of your mistakes, except

you. � Everyone wants to be recognized, so grab every

opportunity you can. � Make sure you don't forget to write your goals down

and review them often. You will see them come to pass.
