Yoga is a way of life that integrates the body, mind, and spirit. Yoga alleviates mental stress and encourages relaxation and inner peace. Furthermore, yoga can also be therapeutic - both as a remedy and as a prophylactic.
In the Ayurvedic teachings, yoga, and meditation are an essential part of any program of treatment to establish a balance between the Doshas. In all but a few cases, yoga and meditation practice are integral parts of the daily schedule.
The four main paths of yoga:
Raja yoga is the path of systematic analysis and control of the mind. Compiled by Patanjali Maharshi, Raja yoga is also known as ‘Ashtanga yoga’, because its practices can be divided into eight limbs (Ashtanga = eight limbs).
The eight limbs:
Yogasanas are various body postures that are practiced to calm the mind enabling a deep state of meditation to occur. It involves various poses such as standing poses, sitting poses, and lying poses. During their performance, you will stretch and relax your structure fully. This frees nerves from stress and strain and improves their functioning.
Pranayama - knowledge, and control of prana (vital energy) are called pranayama. Controlling the mind is not possible without controlling the prana as the two are intimately connected. Through pranayama, the body becomes strong and healthy, and the mind becomes one-pointed. The mind is prepared for Dharana (control of senses) and dhyana (meditation).
Dhyana (meditation) is a state of higher consciousness achieved through a fully rested and relaxed body and a fully awake and relaxed mind. In meditation, there is a constant observation of the mind. Meditation is an experience that cannot be described just as colors cannot be described to a blind person.
Whether you are a beginner or an advanced practitioner, the Namaste Ayurvedic Wellness Centre team's extensive experience in teaching will leave you very relaxed and help you deepen your knowledge and skills.
You will have a picnic to Athirappilly Waterfalls.
Athirappilly Waterfalls is located at the entrance of Sholayar Ranges, the major host town of Chalakudy. This waterfall is one of the major picnic spots in Kerala. Affording to the onlookers, one of the most bewitching sights, Athirappally Waterfalls is 80 feet high and located exactly in the forest area. Combined with the natural greenery, it infuses freshness into any tired soul. The Athirapally Falls joins the Chalakudy River after plummeting a drop of 80 feet.
A much-needed escape from the troubles and stress of life. Let the soothing sounds take you to some of nature's most relaxing places, the beautiful waterfalls of Athirampally and Vazhachal. The charm of the Athirampally and Vazhachal nature cannot be described by words. Starting calmly from the high ranges and crashing through gorges overhung with trees, this waterfall is one of the best places in India to re-capture a real sense of the classical idea of the 'picturesque', not just calm and sweet, but something wild and natural.
