Body

The human body is more than 70% water. This makes the body suitable for contamination and a perfect ground for dis-ease and illness manifestation.

According to Ayurveda and traditional medical sciences, a thought is the primary and the most powerful agent that causes dis-ease and illness. And a thought affects water the fastest.

While water gets contaminated by certain vibrations and results in the body experiencing dis-ease and illness, water is also used as an agent to transmit positive vibrations to heal.

Healing always happens in the mind. However, there are processes that effect the mind directly and indirectly. While Yoga, Taichi, Pranic Healing and Reiki have a direct effect on the mind, medicines typically have a direct effect on the body and an indirect effect on the mind.

Healing through Yoga

The practice of Asana seems to be a physical practice. This is not true. The word "Asana" itself describes this. Asana is a combination of two words; "Asa" means enter into and "Bhuva" means to be. So, the word asana literally means to be, or A state of being.

Hence, a state of being is hardly only physical. It is a posture in which all faculties of the human being come together to be in a natural state, a state of higher vibrational frequency.

The other practices of Pranayama, Kriyas and Mudras are naturally practices which directly enhance the vibrational state of the human being.

Most of the elements of Yoga are used in therapy. To read more on yoga practices used in therapy click here.
