Best time to do yoga

Best time to do yoga
The early morning is the best time to do yoga. The reason is
1. At this time, it is called as Brahmamuhurta, the spiritual energy level is high.
2. No internal and external disturbances
3. Naturally the stomach is empty, with loaded stomach, it is very difficult in practicing yoga
4. The freshness that you get while doing morning yoga can be experienced throughout the day. You always feel briskness during the day.
5. The level of stress decreases and can be felt during the day
6. You feel relaxations all the time
7. Morning time is always quiet and pure & fresh air circulates at this time.
However, you can schedule your time if you are not able to wake up at the early morning and regulate it to do your yoga practice at your scheduled time.

Best place for practicing Yoga and Meditation

Best place for practicing Yoga
     Yoga and meditation is an art of living for our body health and peace of mind. Where i have to do yoga and meditation is question for yoga learners or beginners. Sometimes, the our surrounding may not suit to do meditation, the better place to do meditation should be very pleasant and calm. Recently i visited Vevenkanatha Rock memorial, located 500 m from the mainland of Kanyakumari, India. Swami Vivenkanada swam this rock during the month of December 1892 and meditated deeply and got enlightenment, then became a reformer and philosopher. At this place, I  meditated for about 10 minutes, I went deep meditation, mind became so peace. Such places are so natural where we can hear only the sound of waves. In my life, i would say, this is the best place for meditation.   Few snapshots of this amazing Vivekanatha memorial,

Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.

This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals ..not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.

It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed . It will slow down the digestion.

Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
