- Moksha According To Yogic Philosophies
By: Dee Braun | - Moksha is a term used in many Indian religions. Someone who is thought to experience Moksha is absolved of the suffering and constant rebirth (reincarnation) that life brings. Constantly going through life and death is not considered to be a good thing according to many religious Indian people.
In Hinduism, Moksha cannot be obtained until one reaches a state of full self realization. A Hindu is likely to practice at least one form of Yoga. They also realize that God shows up in ma ...

- Yogic Insights - Why Are We Here?
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Yogic insight is a form of analysis, which allows each Yoga practitioner to find logical and rational answers to questions that confuse each of us. 'Why are we here?' is a question which has puzzled humankind since the beginning.
In answering this question, great temples and monuments have been built. Holy Scriptures have been written in every language. Yet, people still ask, "Why they are here?" Answers to our purpose are often based on religious, political, or scientific knowled ...

- Become A Yoga Teacher - Finding Yourself
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - How do you define "finding yourself" and what does this phrase mean? Would becoming a Yoga instructor help one find himself or herself? There are many people, who struggle with their direction and purpose in life, but how can intensive Yoga training help?
When we say: "I need time to find myself," what are we really saying? We feel lost, our sense of direction is off, and we may wonder why we are here. During times like these, we are spiritually, emotionally, and mentally vulnerab ...

- Discover How Yoga Can Turn Your Life Around
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - How can Yoga turn your life around? Where do you start? If you are a Yoga student, a steady practice is a good start. If you teach Yoga classes, and have students in need of help, where should they start? At least some of us see a need for a starting point, which is an early form of self-awareness.
In making a decision to change our lives, we need to know our perceived limitations. This viewpoint of limitations may not be based upon reality. Sometimes, a limitation is only a proje ...

- Yogic Insights - Five Solutions For Progress
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - No matter who we are - we may feel "stuck" at times. We may see an obstacle and feel like we have hit the end of the road or a 'road block." How can Yoga help you when you struggle, at an impasse, which looks like there is only one solution?
We know there may be multiple solutions, but all we see is one, and the one we see may not be appealing. When we gather information to make decisions, we can create a system for progressive thought that gives us multiple solutions.

By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Could Yoga help you restore your faith in humanity? Have you ever had "one of those days" where everything seemed to go wrong? On one of those days, it may start with one crisis of the moment, and continue onto the next, until we become exhausted by the events of the day.
In the worst of times, we might feel like: "What worse can happen next?" Maybe your faith in humanity is challenged by rude behavior, traffic, or an Email that attempts to steal your identity. You might begin to ...

- Yoga And Natural Healing Remedies
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - All forms of Yoga are being given a closer look by medical and scientific communities, due to the benefits of living a Yogic lifestyle. We often read or hear about the benefits of Yoga poses (asana), Yogic breathing techniques (pranayama), or meditation.
Yet, the benefits of taking Yoga lessons into daily life are not usually taken into account. The Yogic lifestyle, itself, is hard to put under a microscope. Daily application of lessons occurs when we are out in the world. Here is ...

- Yogic Insights - A Closer Look At Fear
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - The teachings of Yoga show us to look within for answers and solutions to obstacles; but there are matters that people do not want to look at, and there are matters we cannot change. Many people do not want to look directly at the source of their inner fears. A meditation session, devoted to looking at our phobias, might not be fruitful - unless we have professional guidance.
How can we deal with the fear of loss, death, or evil? In Psalms 23:4 of the King James Version of the Hol ...

- The Best Yoga Teacher Is Inside You
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Where can we find the best Yoga teacher? Who is the most mystical of Gurus? If I climb one more mountain, will the answers of my purpose in life be revealed when I get to the other side? These are questions each seeker (sadhaka) wants answered.
Many people qualify as seekers. They search for a way to improve the quality of their lives. Yet, they spend their lives on a quest to find a special person with answers to their life purpose, in remote places - only to find the true Yoga t ...

- Yoga, Natural Healing, And Daily Treasures
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - We might hear: Hatha Yoga can be applied toward healing, without a mat or a visit to the local ashram, but how can this be? What daily treasures are we missing out on, and how can Yoga be applied toward healing outside of our practice time?
The time we spend practicing Yoga is "practice time for life." We should enjoy every minute of it. Too many people do not take the time to enjoy what they are doing, when they are doing it. This is why the benefits of Yoga take a little time be ...

- The Yogic Art Of Living
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Why do so many people practice Yoga? Why do students want to become Yoga teachers? What is the attraction to the Yogic path, which bonds so many people from around the world? Is the Yogic way a science or an art? Let's look at these issues closely, to unveil a timeless art of living, within Yoga practice.
There is a saying: "You can't have it all." Some of us want four assets of life all at once. These four assets are: friends, love, unlimited money, and good health. If you could ...

- Yogic Insights - Making Time To Give Thanks
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - How often do we talk to an acquaintance or friend, who says: "I wish I had time for Yoga."? We have all heard plenty of creative excuses to avoid Yoga practice, meditation, and taking care of one's health. Maybe you wish there was a way to get through to people who never seem to run out of excuses.
Unless someone wants to take care of him or herself, it does not matter what we do or say. We can talk until we run out of air, and it will have no effect on the person who refuses to t ...

- Yoga Off The Mat - Three Yogic Principles For Achievement
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - The concept of deriving achievement from Yoga practice is nothing new. Yoga has the ability to alter anyone's direction in life. Throughout history, it has been possible to reach mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and financial goals by practicing or teaching Yoga.
The debate over whether achievement is good, or not, depends upon what we do with an opportunity. If one makes great financial achievements, and contributes large donations to charity, is that wrong? If one becomes ...

- Yoga Off The Mat - About Perceived Limitations
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - It is amazing what a Yoga session can do for personal growth. I am not referring to the physical body, as much as the mindset of the average Yoga practitioner. It is agreed that Hatha Yoga is a great form of physical maintenance, but let's look at the changes that take place within the mind.
Have you ever met someone who is quick to accept impending doom as the eventual outcome in all matters of life? There is always someone in the crowd who will tell you how your idea will never ...

By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Did you ever feel as if faithful Yoga practice would grant you immortality? When we are young, we do not see the world with experienced eyes. This does not mean we should give up, but we should realize that Yoga is great for spiritual growth, prevention of ailments, a natural form of therapy, and a good form of pain management for the mind and body.
The holistic approach has sometimes been pushed aside for purely medical and scientific methods that do not take mental, emotional, a ...

- How Yoga And Martial Arts Create Successful Studios
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Some people think Yoga and Kung Fu are polar opposites, but nothing could be further from the truth. Many of today's martial arts can be traced back to Yogic origins. At the same time, both of these systems develop human potential far beyond normal expectations.
Having seen children develop in Karate, Kung Fu, Ju Jitsu, and Yoga classes, there is no denying the benefits of mental, emotional, and physical training. When my family owned a 4,000 square foot wellness center, with thre ...

- Yoga Off The Mat - What Are Your Dreams Worth?
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Yoga practice is much more than practicing postures on a mat for a few hours each week. Once the mat is rolled up, we begin to apply the teachings of Yoga to life. Granted, most people will apply the physical mastery, learned from Hatha Yoga, toward other physical activities.
However, the Yogic techniques learned, can also change one's life on a much larger scale. When you enhance the power of the mind through Yoga practice, you learn to put your dreams to good use. Each of us has ...

- Yogic Insights - The Significance Of Dharana
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Dharana is the sixth limb, of the eight limbs, described by Maharishi Patanjali, within the Yoga Sutras. We also classify Dharana as a focused concentration of the mind. In this world of cell phones, lap tops, and television, the mind becomes trained to sift messages quickly - without looking at them in depth.
Unfortunately, we can miss out on valuable knowledge and relationships by skimming over everything, without really reading into it. The value of pointed thought, self-analys ...

- Yogic Insights - Observing Doubt, Fear, And Faith
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - We are often taught to scorn doubt and fear, but some may claim this is the age of doubt. After so many political, banking, and business scandals, what is left to believe in? Many sports icons, movie stars, musicians, and religious figures have fallen from grace. Who are we to believe in?
In Yoga, we are taught to look within and believe in ourselves. If the sky falls tomorrow, the people, who work to solve the problem, will have to look deep within to find the solutions. This is ...

- Yoga And The Power Of Positive Energy
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - If you participate in a Yoga practice, you hear terms related to negative or positive energy. Negative energy is most commonly seen as worry, anxiety, pains, aches, pessimism, and doubt. Negative energy prevents progress and can bring your life to a standstill.
Positive energy is an arousal within the mind that causes action and creativity. Sometimes, problem-solving skills are enhanced, due to a surge in positive energy. Religious theologians, of all faiths, call positive energy ...

By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - You read and hear so much about being consciously aware and spiritual awakening, but what does it all mean? What does Yoga have to do with it? How could Yoga practice cause a practitioner to live with intention and complete mindfulness?
Firstly, let's talk about being consciously aware. One of my Yoga students is celebrating her 96th birthday this weekend. Her husband died quite young and she raised three children by herself. You might picture someone who is bitter, comes to class ...

- Yoga For Self-discovery - The Discipline Of Yoga
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - When we consider the word "discipline," we might think of the military or harsh training. Yoga may not come to mind, when considering the many faces of discipline. Yet, Yoga is a genuine discipline, which has evolved for thousands of years, and it qualifies this description for two reasons.
1. Yoga is an immense branch of knowledge.
2. Yoga will develop positive behavior through instruction and practice - especially in the art of training one's mind.

- Teachings Of Yoga And The Fear Of Success
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - If one is in search of spiritual enlightenment, should he or she avoid success in all other matters? How many Yoga practitioners think that success is a bad thing? Abundance, success, and achievement are shunned by many Gurus. There is a logical reason for this, but there is also a drawback for all of humankind.
One of many reasons, for embracing poverty, is to practice Aparigraha (non- possessiveness). Yet, those who tell others to enjoy poverty, give this advice to keep greed "i ...

By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - How has the Yoga teacher community managed to flourish so quickly? It seems to have occurred around the time the web made rapid advancements in technology. There is no coincidence in the timing of the popularity growth of Yoga and Internet video technology. Here is what happened and why.
Until recently, most Yoga practitioners were dependent upon training with their Guru, in small groups, or training alone with a book. Without constant stimulation, feedback, or guidance, most stud ...

- Practicing Hatha Yoga For A Personal Growth Path
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - In Yoga classes, we are taught about Santosha (contentment). Yet, how can we be content with our lives, when we are influenced by the past, and the society we live in? We have to accept the fact that we are products of our family, culture, and education. To accept oneself at "face value" and without judgment is the beginning of finding inner peace.
For each of us this is a starting point in the journey of Yoga practice, and the path of personal growth, which runs parallel to our Y ...

- Yoga For Prosperity - Define And Cultivate Abundant Energy
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Why do some Yoga Gurus frown on the concept of prosperity? What does a prosperous life mean to them? How do you define prosperity? If you want to be prosperous, how would you go about cultivating abundant energy? Let's take a journey into Yogic philosophy and the energy surrounding the cultivation of prosperity.
Is a prosperous life bad? Is abundance the reason for a miserable existence? The reason prosperity is scorned by some is based upon what a person does with it. Will a pers ...

By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Contrary to popular opinion, within different forms of Yoga, there are combined methods of meditation, mantra, and affirmation for prosperity. The world could use some prosperity right now. Should you become too prosperous, as a result of the following practices, you can always donate your surplus to the nearest charity.

- The Purpose Of Yoga - Is The Path Toward Prosperity Un-yogic?
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Since the humble beginnings of humankind, we have prayed for prosperity, abundance, and happiness. Why have so many Yoga teachers scorned the path of prosperity? Many people equate prosperity with material possessions. Too much material abundance has created the desire for more and more possessions.
Consider these words by the Buddha: "To live a pure unselfish life, one must count nothing as one's own in the midst of abundance." The clear problem with material prosperity is greed ...

There seems to be some conflicting ideas about what a beginner, or an advanced Yoga practitioner, are. In all forms of Yoga, energy within the body is channeled for maximum potential. Many types of Yoga focus on mental, emotional, and spiritual growth. The ph ...

By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - How has Yoga kept surviving for thousands of years? Yoga has survived gluttony and poverty. Some people question everything they do, when an economy turns tough. Yet, people will still pursue their vices in the worst of times.
It is no secret that many people do not practice preventative health, whether the economy is good or bad. Yet, it is clear to see that people will spend discretionary income on bad habits, even when money is scarce. Why? The public has a difficult time compr ...

- How Does Hatha Yoga Heal Us?
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - One of the most common questions Yoga teachers answer is about the healing aspects of regular practice. As we become more aware of our health, we would like to capture wellness and hold onto it for as long as possible. This is not only an indication of self-awareness, but also a sign of intelligence.
Unfortunately, some of us will abuse our bodies in one way or another, but Hatha Yoga gives us a path toward the best possible health. The asanas (yoga postures) create movements, whi ...

1. Breath: In work, many people breathe shallow, or unconsciously hold their breath, throughout the day. In Yoga, we learn to control our breathing. This control of breath is called "pranayama." There are many variations of pranayama, but let's work on one ...

The more you listen to the news, the worse you might feel. Yet, you can visit a local Yoga school, center, or studio, for some rest and relaxation.
Even if someone is on a tight budget, Yoga classes are affordable, in comparison to any other form of stress relief. There is a sense of community within classes. In the past, people ha ...

- Yoga Terms And Yogic Misrepresentations
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - If you listen closely, you will hear people misuse terms related to Yoga because of lack of knowledge or by bending and twisting a definition to suit their needs. An example of this would be when a student claims a teacher who charges for classes does not have a "Yogic attitude."
In general, Yoga teachers tend to be charitable with their time, money, and possessions, but when one chooses to teach, there is no vow of poverty. Many Yoga instructors have families, and do not live in ...

By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - What is Yoga? Many times, Yoga is explained away as a Sanskrit word which means, union. In fact, Yoga means many things to many people. Yoga has been called a Hindu discipline, an exercise, a science of life, a self-improvement system, a gateway to God, and many more explanations.
There are some who will argue that Yoga is all of these things or none of these things. Is Yoga good or evil? If you look at the foundation of Yoga, it is Yama and Niyama. There is no evil in moral codes ...

- Yoga And The Manifestation Of Success
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - In some Yogic circles, the word "success" is considered selfish. On top of that, the concept of manifesting success could create the type of personality that is only concerned with itself, and taking advantage of situations, to the exclusion of others.
Knowing this - why should Yoga practitioners be interested in the manifestation of success? Think about this: The polar opposite of success is failure. Should Yogis be interested in the manifestation of failure? Absolutely not; ther ...

We often hear people say, "I need more time," but how can we get more than 24 hours out of a day? Truthfully, we only have 24 hours, so there must be something to getting the most out of each day.
