Vibrational Yoga by charles lightwalker
Vibrational Yoga has shown to be effective in alleviating chronic aches and
pains. Many people have found that a simple, regular yoga practice
strengthens their back, one of the most common complaints in our culture. In
fact yoga has been adapted to support many different needs including asthma,
relieving stress to joints, pregnancy and stress reduction.
ProgressiveYoga stretching is becoming increasingly popular as a complimentary means of facilitating the body's capacity to restore balance and well being. But the journey of yoga just begins with the physical body. As Gary Kraftsow notes in his newly released book, Yoga for Transformation, "Although people today turn to yoga for different reasons, the underlying motivation for many is the hope that, through yoga practice, they can transform recurring, troubling emotions and find greater meaning in life, even lasting peace. This is the promise of the yoga tradition, and by following it, the potential to realize these goals is actually quite high." Vibrational Yoga promotes a healthy interaction between the mind , body and spirit - an important benefit given that so many common physical ailments are attributed to stress and one's mental or emotional state. For example, recent studies show that a majority of common back ailments are triggered not by physical abnormalities or by heavy lifting, but by chronically tight muscles caused by stress. Emotional stress causes the back muscles to become tense and more vulnerable to injury. Gentle Progressive yoga stretches help reduce physical tension directly. Simple breathing techniques and encouragement to stay aware in the present moment help alleviate the mental and emotional distress that causes such tension. The mind-body interaction works in both directions. When you are physically tense, the mind becomes more easily agitated and critical. When muscles relax, as they do in Vibrational yoga practice, the mind becomes more tranquil. The result is greater clarity, a healthy change of perspective, and the ability to respond to challenges more creatively and with calm and ease. Vibrationa yoga and progressive yoga stretching are taught by Charles Lightwalker, intuitive healer, channeler,and yoga dad to a beautiful daughter. He and his partner Serena live in the Pacific northwest with their daughter. For more info.go to: www.thefamilyofllight.com [All work by author is copyright protected.
