Download or read book The Yoga of Cleaning written by Jennifer Carter Avgerinos and published by BalboaPress. This book was released on 2014-02-27 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is The Yoga of Cleaning? These are two activities that dont usually go together. Or do they? Yoga means union or yoking of the mind, body and spirit. When these three aspects of us are brought to the task of cleaning (which is the art of purification) a greater expansion of well-being is created. When cleaning is combined with the technologies of yoga and its sister philosophies - ayurveda, meditation and vastu the result is the cultivation of sacred space within our homes and within our lives. You do not need to practice yoga to read this book and you need not be a germ-a-phoebe either. This essential guide will show you how to spiritualize your cleaning routine, take back your life and recreate your home as sacred space. Praise for The Yoga of Cleaning: In the yoga world, a popular meme is to take the practice off the mat and bring it into daily life. The Yoga of Cleaning does just that in full force and with playful intention. This very fascinating book poses the surprising interplay between yogic principles, yogic philosophy and the processes of cleaning. The Yoga of Cleaning is not just an esoteric overview that attempts to stimulate a deeper awareness and sense of spirituality to cleaning. Nor is it simply a how to cleaning manual. Instead, Jennifer has produced a work that merges the two in an engaging fashion, introducing the reader to methods that inspire otherwise mundane household and personal chores to something of a higher purpose. She reminds us that all actions have meaning and impact on our lives. She supports the process with holistic, efficient and streamlined strategies for care of the self and its surroundings.

Download or read book Ayurveda for Beginners written by Rohit Sahu and published by Rohit Sahu. This book was released on 2020-07-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you underweight? Are you easily fatigued? Do you experience discomfort in the joints? Do you suffer from dryness, insomnia, or constipation? Are you constantly restless or agitated? Is your skin dry, rough, or thin? If so, you need to balance your Vata Dosha... Ayurveda, which derives from ancient Vedic scriptures, is a 5,000-year-old medical ideology and philosophy based on the idea that we are all made up of different types of energy. There are three doshas in Ayurveda that describe the dominant state of mind/body--Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. While all three are present in everyone, Ayurveda suggests that we each have a dominant dosha that is unwavering from birth, and ideally an equal (though often fluctuating) balance between the other two. If doshas are balanced, we are healthy; when they are unbalanced, we develop a disorder commonly expressed by skin problems, impaired nutrition, insomnia, irritability, and anxiety. Vata, Pitta, and Kapha are all important to our biology in some way, so no one is greater than, or superior to, any other. Each has a very specific set of basic functions to perform in the body. Each of the doshas has its own special strengths and weaknesses, and with a little awareness, you can do a lot to remain healthy and balanced. I've made a complete series of these three. This is Vata; the other two are also available. You can use this series to adjust your lifestyles and routines in a way that supports your constitution. Because Pitta and Kapha cannot pass without it, Vata is assumed to be the chief of the three Ayurvedic Standards in the body. It is therefore really important to keep Vata in a good balance. Vata reflects the energy of motion and is therefore always associated with the Wind (and the element of Air). Vata is the invisible force of movement--composed of Space and Air. It controls breathing, blinking, contraction of muscle and tissue, pulsation of the heart, and all movements of the cytoplasm and cell membranes. Vata fosters innovation, creativity, and versatility in a balanced way. But it also causes fear and anxiety when out of control. In Ayurvedic medicine, the Vata Dosha is the lightest and most innovative of all doshas. When Vata type are out of control, their creative minds and bodies, which are always on their way, will overwhelm themselves with fear and chaos. In this book, we'll dive deeper into what Vata means, what throws Vata out of balance, and how to identify the Vata Dosha in your environment, in yourself, and in others. With this book, I'm going to share with you everything you need to know in order to balance your Vata Dosha and use it for your overall vitality, joy, and well-being. Reading This You'll Discover: Vata Characteristics Vata Doshas and Subdoshas Disorders Caused by Vata Imbalance What Causes Vata Dosha or Imbalance Ways to Deal with Vata Dosha Vata-Stabilizing Lifestyle Tips Clarification on Vata Dosha and Fasting The Relation Between Vata Dosha and Warm Foods Guidance on Different Vata Diets What Tastes to Favor for Vata Balancing Foods that Pacify Vata and What Foods to Avoid How to Eat for Vata Balancing Vata Friendly, Delicious Recipes Vata Seasonal Guide Best Yoga Poses Essential Herbs Ideal Oil Massage for Vata Balancing Just follow the book along, and you'll reveal the easiest step-by-step routine to balance your Vata Dosha by the end of it!
