Breathing is life, but how little we know about it! For example, do you know that you use only one nostril at a time for breathing?

Tantra teaches you that nothing is ugly or bad. Sex is definitely not bad as this was the cause of your birth. All those people who condemn sex condemn their parents and themselves. If sex is a sin, then you are born of sin. If sex is bad then you are bad. Husband and wife - a man and a woman have sex and as a result the man’s semen is released in the woman’s body. The meeting of the sperm and the ovum is the beginning of a new life, a new baby. Every saint and every sinner has got a physical body because of sex. How can one condemn sex?

For keeping the body healthy and fat free, yoga plays a vital role. Yoga is considered as a three way approach for body, mind and soul. Where stress is one of the grounds for binge eating, yoga controls everything. Yoga can be performed in many ways- in the form of asanas, pranayamas and mudras.

The best way to be established in brahmacharya and to be divine is to have the tantric attitude of passionless-ness, reverence and worshipfulness. In an act without passion there must be mastery over the yogic kriyas, kumbhaka, uddiyana, vajroli, etc. Without this, brahmacharya is self-deception.

Pregnancy- One Becomes Two

Pregnancy is a natural state in a woman’s life. It does however bring a great physiological change throughout the body - this should be understood and respected. Yoga is an ideal form of exercise during pregnancy as it helps one to relax, to keep fit and to enjoy the pregnancy. In particular, it can help strengthen the pelvic area, normalize the thyroid function, keep the blood pressure in check and help one stay calm and relaxed - all of which is good for the baby too. Yoga helps improve breathing, fluid and hormone balance and prevents varicose veins. You will find that the physical yogic postures or asanas; the breathing techniques or pranayamas; the meditation techniques or dhyana; are all ideal mind-body preparation tools for childbirth. Yogic postures exercise the spinal column lessening lower back pain and strengthening the floor of the pelvis. The cavity in the pelvic region is expanded, creating space for the growing uterus. This ensures that there is proper blood circulation and adequate room for the baby to move comfortably.

Menstruation is a natural monthly cycle in women. The discharge consists of blood and cells which sheds from the lining of the uterus. The bleeding can last from two to seven days and signifies that no conception has taken place. The main hormones involved in controlling menstruation are estrogen and progesterone. The cycle begins when a dormant egg cell within an ovary begins to ripen. The cells around this maturing egg cell then release estrogen which prompts the lining of the endometrium to thicken as preparation for the receipt of fertilized egg. When the egg matures, ovulation begins. In ovulation, the matured egg will burst from the ovary and go down to the fallopian tube to the uterus. The cells that are left behind after ovulation will then begin the production of progesterone. This hormone, the progesterone, is responsible for the further growth of the endometrium.

Winter is upon us but does that give you the excuse to stay at home for the next two months? Certainly not, especially if you want to stay in good health and maintain your shape. Winter normally ushers one into physical discomforts like cold, fever, sometimes even depression also; your body increases its fat reserves as a protection against the cold.
In winter, beginner or an intermediate practitioner should practice dynamic yoga, meaning instead of holding a pose for few seconds, one should practice each Shuksham vayama and Asana 2 to 5 times continuously.
