Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think- Albert Einstien
Yoga is just this - a discipline to train the mind to think correctly. its about mental, physical, emotional management. And this can happen only when we spend time with the subject - ourself. The more you pay attention, listen to yourself the more you understand and then develop management techniques and skill. So you can acheive what you wish. But it has to begin with listening to yourself, without judging.
Practising asana tells how our body feels now, whats going on. Pranayama shows the mind condition. quiet time meditation can happen only once the body and mind is a bit quiet, settled, comfortable. Then we begin to make progress in seeing ourself for what we are, what our thoughts are about, our responses to thoughts. How to manage is clearly seen. This process allows us to deal with any situation because we are a bit detached, above it so can solve it with calmness. Its just like solving a riddle, doing sudoku!!
attention without tension :) Its a personality development that results from such education. Hows the sadhana going??
