India is the soul of Brahman, the absolute, nondual reality, a yogi friend told me once. With this in mind I set foot for Tiruvanamalai, a spiritual vortex in the state of Tamil Nadu. |

FAQ IV - Yoga and Osteoporosis |
By Ann Barros, Certified Iyengar Yoga Instructor
How can yoga help osteoporosis?
The practice of hatha yoga can help to prevent osteoporosis by strengthening the bones as the practitioner bears weight in the legs in standing poses, and in the upper body in inverted poses such as arm balances and Headstand. Especially in the Iyengar tradition of hatha yoga- which places strong emphasis on correct body alignment -, the joints, muscles and bones are all challenged to hold and maintain a posture. This builds strength and endurance in all the bones bearing weight. Weight bearing exercises increase bone density; therefore yoga is the cure and/or preventative practice for osteoporosis. |

Jakartadoyoga Soft Opening Event: Walking Meditation and Yoga All Day Long November 2007 |
|
Jakarta may not be the friendliest city for those who enjoy their daily dose of walk or just being outdoor. The combination of scorching heat, polluted air, noisy motorists and catcalling bystanders are enough to encourage many of us to hop into a car or a cab to reach our destination, or seek refuge in an air conditioned mall or gym. But wake up early enough, when the city is still largely asleep, and the streets of downtown Jakarta looks like a whole different place. |
