Perfect Evaluation of Yoga

health benefits of yoga
A century ago Yoga was a matter of ridicule almost at every corner of the globe. In 1897 The Strand Magazine published the "fearful and wonderful contortions" of the total body by an unknown yogi at the Westminster Aquarium in London. In sheer contrast the votaries of the Yoga include eminent figures of the film world, world of entertainment and from every sphere of the society. There is no dictionary found today where the term Yoga is not explained. Yoga has charmed the people of the West and it seems in US today there are more practitioners of Yoga alone than in India where it originated. The westerners are trying hard to solve the mystery, the health benefits of Yoga.

Right now Yoga practice for you
Right at this moment Yoga has become so popular that there is seen a sudden rise in the number of Yoga gurus, schools and followers. The effect of the sudden upsurge is not bad. As a result of such a Yoga revolt there emerge dedicated teachers and quality researchers. But on the opposite side there are many who are trying to bring infamy to the field being goaded by the love of money. These money seekers can not offer proof of their quality but they are misleading the people who want to taste the essence of Yoga in the true sense.

Abuse of Yoga
Some eminent personalities tried to diminish the power of Yoga by describing it as acrobatic postures and unnatural cleansing. Though they had gone through many ancient books where Yogic works described the physiological effects of Yoga nicely they tried to undermine Yoga. Yogic practice refers to light and slim body, pleasing face, sweet voice, freedom from all sorts of ailments. The great men had clear perception of the pros and cons of the physiology of Yoga yet they tried their best to underestimate the health benefits of Yoga.

Plenty of Books and websites on Yoga
At this moment no one dares to speak ill of Yoga as there are plenty of books written on Yoga elaborating its effects on the human health. Great writers like Vithaldas, Funderburk and Behanan speak highly of Yoga and Yoga therapies. There are spates of books on Yoga. Even there are special ones with special foci such as “Yoga for Beauty", "Yoga For Sex",” Yoga for healthy living", "Yoga for executives" and so on. There are many do-it-yourself books too in the market. Yoga books are being published daily in the West. Besides, there are so many websites on Yoga that are ready to highlight in details the health benefits of Yoga. Some of them are really helpful to the beginners or the Yoga learners. But maximum numbers of them are mere gimmicks, endless effort to mislead the viewers.

Fervent appeal of Yoga
Hence it is fervently appealed to the viewers not to have firm belief on every thing about Yoga in a blind manner. Take a plunge into the matter and try to find out the truth underneath. Yoga is absolutely a boon for your health but if wrongly directed you can near the catastrophe in no time.
