Yoga is a discipline that provides methods to unite the mind, body and spirit.

The true age of yoga is not known. It existed for centuries before the first written records of yoga.

Yoga provides methods of preventing and healing mental and physical stresses of various types.

No one knows who invented yoga. It was passed down orally for centuries. After this during the 2nd century BC yoga was first written as aphorisms by a sage named Patanjali. Many consider Patanjali as the founder of yoga.

Yoga originated from India.

There are various types of yoga created from the mental and physical expressions of their founders.

The type of yoga that suits an individual is based on their mental and physical makeup which is in transition. The yoga practiced should not be too strong or too easy. That way a state of flow is achieved.

Once injured allow a few days or weeks to pass for the inflammation to subside. Then practice around the injury in order to enable blood flow to the injury and stop muscular atrophy from developing. When in doubt always consult a doctor.

Yoga may help heal injuries and ailments. Yoga is most effective as a preventive method by keeping the body from acquiring afflictions.

You do not need to go anywhere to practice yoga. Your yoga, which is always in evolution, is found within.

Any place that is quiet and clean is best. I taught students within apartments bustling with the sounds of the city and on floor spaces I dreaded to be barefoot on. Despite such conditions I witnessed good progression.

It is recommended to practice everyday. Practicing once or twice a week will experience benefits.

You may practice yoga and still experience benefits at any of the places mentioned.

It is ideal to always practice at the same time of day. This will connect you to a stable cornerstone in your day. If the schedule is always changing then you will benefit from any convenient time within each 24 hour period.

Until instructed to do different always breathe into the nose and out the nose at all times.

Information on the lessons is available within the introduction of the lessons. When you click on the series you want you will also find information regarding that particular series. Using such information you may consider the appropriate lesson.

You may advance when the current lessons feel easy and when the sequences of postures are committed to memory. When the body demands more and the mind knows where the instructions are leading to then one may advance. It is important to maintain such a state for a few weeks before advancing.

If the lesson felt too hard then consider a previous lesson or series.

If the lesson felt too easy then consider a higher lesson or series.

After you choose a lesson endeavor to complete it from the beginning to the end while paying attention to any contraindications. Once concluded consider steps 3 and 4.
