Yoga is one of the easiest ways to channel your energy and rejuvenate your senses. With a plethora of asanas, postures, and meditation sessions, one can get to connect with one’s inner self. While beginners are able to grasp the fundamentals of yogic practices, what they struggle with is how to deepen their practice. In this blog, Inner Yoga Training, the best yoga teacher training in Bali, will tell you five fascinating tips that can help you in deepening your yoga practice in 2023. So, without any further ado, let’s get started.
Focussing on your Inner Self.
For most of us, yoga is about the precision of yoga postures, the hold one can exercise, the Vinyasa sequence, etc. Only a handful of us can actually start moving our attention away from the yoga poses and physical body and start to focus our intention inward. Tapping into our inner self requires us to turn our senses inward and observe our minds. Practicing the fourth and fifth limbs of Ashtanga Yoga, pranayama (breath extension) and pratyahara (sense-withdrawal) can help us heighten our sensitivity, concentration, and awareness. In your daily yoga, start incorporating simple pranayama exercises such as square breathing or gentle alternate-nostril breathing. Candle-gazing is an excellent technique to build concentration and sense withdrawal.
Chanting and Mudra.
A mantra is a sacred phrase, word, or syllable that is recited to support our meditation or to invoke divinity. Some of the common mantras are the Gayatri mantra and the sound of Aum. Mudra is a spiritual gesture performed with the hands, fingers, and body. Mudras are often used in conjunction with pranayama to stimulate different parts of the body involved with breathing and to affect the flow of prana in the body. Chanting and forming mudras in your yoga practice helps strengthen your psychic abilities, willpower, devotion, and the power of manifestation.
Get, Set, and Perform Yin Yoga.
Sometimes the best way to improve is to take it back a notch. This couldn’t be truer than with the beautiful practice of Yin Yoga, which has many benefits that can’t be achieved through other practices. Yin Yoga involves holding poses (mostly lying down on the mat) for around 3 to 5 minutes. It is the best form of yoga practice out there for releasing the fascia located deep inside the body and for mobilizing the joints. Try starting with Yin Yoga 3 times a week and you’ll soon start to notice the difference in your flexibility. Need some guidance?
