BHAGAVAD GITA

1 of most important pieces in Gita is the famous idea about relinquishing the RESULTS of any actions while performing the actions themselves.While performing the YAJNA(sanskrit term,explaining action without any interest in it shown)we here control not any result of it,but instead the condition,in which this particular brain is as we perform the action in question.This is easily achieved by controlling the condition of each eye;tired right 1 shows that detailed actions would better be stopped;tired left eye shows that most all actions must be relinquished as the left brain's part IS the controller,which makes arrangements over the right brain pieces' actions;at least this is the way it all works here;and my experience shows me that in some people the entire ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS' scheme works much in a different way-their electric nets are working electric impulses in different ways altogether;this fact being the REAL difference betweem people,seemingly working over weirdly different tasks.THEIR brain nets simply move informations through very different inter- neural schemes/nets/paths through their brains;this difference does exist,and it is too realistic not to consider it a reality.So to control your brain you must watch the eyes,condition of which shows in what condition the entire brain is;right 1/details working over and left 1/intentions/pleasures/colours etc things worked over.Whichever things are worked over(1 does all too different ones in life),under no circumstances any of the 2 different brain parts may get damaged,and this is seen AS simply as by the according eye's condition.I can easily And the way a tortoise takes its senses "out of action" by hiding them in its shell 1 retreats into the "shell of 1's mount"(into himself as needing a break 1 just sits and watches)till the very moment the brain is back to a good condition.1 more outcomes to make out of this tortoise verse is the liquidity 1 should use in performing most any action:AS soon as the brain starts getting damaged HERE("1 can feel it coming" as they say)you must leave this particular scene to work over a different 1 simply to improve the brain work conditions.The verse,if you try to decifer it correctly(1 should try different explanations to many verses all along),along with Gita itself too,recommends us not a better job to do but instead a better way of performing most ANY ACTION IN OUR own LIVES,which must profit most from these,and not any particular job's improvement at all.Actions we perform are not to be done for the actions themselves or their results,this is the lesson here,but rather for final good of this particular organism;sensitivity you possess(recommended to have it developed to larger sizes for similar ends)telling you about the exact moment the action you perform at this moment to be left alone and aside as soon as it starts damaging your brains;nicer brains always possess large enough sensitivity to warn 1 of the impending danger and destruction of sorts;at the moment you feel it coming(dogs are super sensitive to so many factors and we must be sensitive too)you leave the action for a very different 1 instead.Funny tbing i did notice numerous times is however many numbers of foods had you telinquished lately the very same amount of sensitivity will return to you.Its like taken out of HERE it just HAS to grow up in completely different spot;i mean your neurological/brain based achievements.This is a detailed explanation to the Gita verse about a tortoise,which leaves its work for the safety of its shell as soon as danger approaches it.The Gita text is that tense and explicit that it never allows any single verse to be repeated twice-the author attempted to make the text short in a deliberate attempt to make it worth a museum piece,as longer pieces arent holding one's attention for long simply;but in 1 specific text(mantra) twice repetition HAD taken place,unlike the rest of the extremely terse text.This text prises working over the very same activities/goals and aims 1 had been working over his entire life;and with the interesting hinduism stress upon the activities repetition and never making new ones it is a stable part,which supports the main hinduism life points.As we know,when 1 starts to consider/work over new life styles and activities he never before even attempted,his brain then has to come through a massive overdose of working over things he never ever even tried in his life;this particular situation is very dangerous for the brain as the newer a topic to deal with threatens the stability of his brain - things a brain HAD been dealing with beforehands already are dealt with and doing them again is 20 times or so less dangerous than dealing with things new in character.As a set of rules(all hinduist texts are always a simple set of rules,keeping to which 1 can hold on to happy and long a life)Gita is much reminding other hindu texts;however,its recommendations are funnily for rather extreme life situations;and when we take a look at the amount of weirdly uncommon changes the authors of Gita had to pass through(again,they participated of the "Post Alexander the Great immense turbulence period" in northern India)we can see why exactly did the text become so an "external violence coming through" marked;recommendations of coming through violent times are naturally arriving with those times;and the above mentioned indian turmoil indeed HAD been a major 1.After Alexander finally was forced to stop his conquerous India war,the remaining victorious kingdom that stopped him had to fight several other desirees to hold the supreme power over India,and i am certain that 1 of those pretenders/desirees was indeed the author of the text.The idea with this is that if you never do any new things your brain is never in any danger as real disastrous effects one's brain might get all come from things he never ever did beforehands;brain is nothing more than electric signals' processor and when 1 of those processors starts to work over new things(the text forbids us to)it is under a 20 times larger electric pressure;and pressure CAN kill neurons unlike other things ever might. THE TURTLE VERSE The verse recommends actions of a tortoise with leaving objects of action for other ones as soon as complications of sorts arise.A tortoise is able to at any chosen moment withdraw to its own sphere,that inside of the shell,returning to whatever it does only when wishing to.I personally often in this way of "hiding-in-the-shell" use either yoga or else pranayama,which is a subsidiary of yoga,dealing with breathing.As well into pranayama i aquire qualities of weak or mostly abscent signs of life;the state 1 gets into once deprived of oxygen;and partial deprivation of oxygen IS what pranayama will bring you once you ARE good in it;to be good at it though is a trick 1 must learn and it does not come easy,taking a while to "get there".This "shell" i might at any moment hide into,and each yoga and pranayama ARE able to provide a shell to hide in in hard life circumstances,brings me of weird,not commonly seen in people,qualtities of 1)capacity to exactly the way any tortoise is,being a vegan(no animal foods eaten),and 2)amazing slowliness of action i CAN and often DO enjoy in life.So why would such a slow and lazy looking animal like a tortoise be recommended as THE model for great speeds actions(thats EXACTLY what Gita deals with in its verses)?Indeed,externally seen(not brain actions connected),tortoise is too slow for any extreme type actions;and the answer is the actions are happening yes,just in areas,generally unseen;and we know that unseen actions(of the brain)are the most important and influential ones.To explain it further,say the tortoise had just been munching upon a leave of a grass;now a predator appears,threatening it all;the tortoise is withdrawing into the shell;all the way inside of its brain overly active brain circuits immediately start exchanging the sleepy actions' pattern to a fast withdrawal with disposal of any external actions;now the brain is overly active for it,replacing 1 external activity with a completely different 1 on its own insides.THIS exchange of actions in the extremes is exactly what builds the brain and as the brain is overactive its body HAS to slow down to allow it its action;thats why tortoises are this slow.More,building up of the brain cells(and these ARE what makes us intelligent/wise etc)is much stronger after exactly such extreme exchanges than how the brain grows up after small details of life like stepping upon your feet or else eating another foodie etc.

SHADANGASANA

The name of this pose(i never saw it in any yoga books and am adding the pose to yoga somewhat anew out of my OWN yoga experience)suggests using 6 directions of leaving your comfortable state into the ''outdoors''(anga in sanskrit)let us say for health benefits of sorts. HOW TO DO Lay down into Shavasana the corpse pose;now 1)pick up the head so that it was above the ground level and balancing without efforts.As tired of this,get the head down upon the ground and relax a bit.Now 2)pick up your left hand and point it upwards;when tired/feeling uncomfortable with this,get it down upon the ground into Shavasana the basic pose of THIS 1 as well.As feeling well(this might take some while and you must be ready to note the exact time)again,3)pick up your left leg and point it all the way upwards.Then touch your genitals with 1 of your hands next,in the 4).The next time do use your other hand for this(as the complete 6 ends(''shadanga'')cycle IS finished finally).As 5) pick up your right leg all the way it can reach.As 6) do have your right hand pointing all the way it can upwards.After the 6 subexercises(6=anga in sanskrit the original yoga language)are finished,do another cycle and so on till tired of this large pose at last.In this cycle the body parts you act upon make a circle around your body beginning with your head,then moving clockwards and returning to it at the end of such a circle.Each of the 6 subexercises tends to somewhat replace the blood pressure volume throughout the entire blood volume your body holds inside;this us,according to physiology,around 6 litres of blood,and by moving the body parts you replace blood pressure in a body part with a new 1 as the part gets up and so next blood pressure in it is already higher;these innocent enough games with blood pressure still can account to much better blood pressure people would be aquiring with time.As i personally do each of the 6 partial sub-exercises,they each end with heavy breathing by their end;however,most people will not develop heavy breathing.No heavy breathing(some are sensitive enough to notice such changes even as they DO exist for every human being nevertheless)does not mean that your body gets no effect from the pose whatsoever;it does exist and it is practise that appropriate muscles of your body do get in the process;the practise of certain muscles in this case.Even so,the reason i get it will do similar profits for everyone,and this is:1)exercises your blood pressure gets and so profilactics to heart conditions and 2)stretching with final strenghtening of the muscles of each of the currently used body parts for exercising the entire muscular system of your body into its gradual,even as very slow a developement.This exercise slowly yet for certain exercises your different muscular system's pieces into a better final condition;blood pessure conditions prevented along the way.Muscles though,as stretched outwards,then also tend to massage those body parts that come close to them and in this way additionally improve your general physical condition,1 thing i find yoga as a subject even fails to achieve.Yoga as a physical discipline mounts its pressure mostly upon the great final condition of its user,condition of mostly the brain itself,and the brain uses great condition of its lower body subjects for its OWN ends of better feeling;even failing to add to those lower body pieces' condition themselves,1 thing i personally find amiss in yoga texts.When in the poses i personally added to yoga(several headstand variations,this Shadangasana and also Catangasana as well)the brain leaves the centre,where the brain resides with a pleasurable condition well present for additional works on its outside terrains for better final results this entire system of bodily parts he then enjoys.Whenever doing different small exercises(i frequently do these at times i am NOT active in more potentially important life acts)i always include this Shadangasana into the list of numerous half poses i perform daily.The pose i never saw in any textbooks for both yoga and exercising elsewhere.

TOES EXERCISES

These exercises can be done in any condition and in each life situation unlike multiple ones,1 needs special gear/circumstances for.Sometimes i can achieve heavy breathing by such fingers' exercises as i walk around upon life missions and find it better to have them for health.The toes exercises can be done in 2 ways: 1)) FINGERS' EXERCISES HOW TO DO: Take 1 finger at a time and simply roughly outstretch it(all the while holding the entire fingers' pack in 1 single block together/relaxed for better results;this capability WILL be there for you with time)into outwards,so as to have the entire finger stretched into 1 straight line,even,pressing it further on into the outside more.I personally often get heavy breathing with this overstretching of 1 of my fingers;but others will not have the effect.As done with THIS finger(this practises you in several ways even as you are,say,standing upon a road etc),move to the next 1 and so on(from the left pinky gradually moving to the next,then to the forefinger etc,and reaching the right pinky by the end,accounting the exercises for your own self all along),so as to try each of the 10;then move on to the next 10 and so on;all the way do count the exercises you perform in this way.Accounting such small exercises actually is something like a mantra in hinduism,and a mantra there is ''a way to protect one's mind'' while yet YES doing along with this things useful,in this case practising both nervous and muscles' webs that stretch thoroughly inside of us.Each finger is a substantial part of both:1)web of nervous cells inside and 2)the web of muscles that stretch throughout the body sidewards whenever is it necessary.As both of the 2 sizeable(as you practise this they gradually develop)webs each body has constricts just to support the applied so pressure,the ENTIRE system of both nervous and muscles' parts accordingly constricts/elongates just as well;and keep in mind that fingers are a very considerable part of both the above mentioned critical body systems/webs.Like this,even while not doing visibly anything,1 is able to practise both the systems with small exercises.I personally(my sensitivity is pretty high though)can achieve heavy breathing after each of such harsher finger stretches.The secret(people wont find heavy breathing here even as the effect WILL be similar/weaker somewhat)here is that each finger of a palm is a part of the entire bodily muscular system and stretching it out increases the pressure your ENTIRE muscular system experiences.Like this exercise is possible even while walking around on foot along with it;i myself do this exercise while walking on my city errands quite often.But even in people,who never have any sensitivity to things alike the forceful elongation of fingers and furthet their relaxation provides for a very small exercise.Keep in mind that the simpler things do you keep practising the greater your final result will definitely be as heavy exercises are way too demanding and can even injure your health,if performed incorrectly.This very same principle IS correct for foods you consume just AS well.Smaller though exercises arent even able to injure you and in case they are done often over years of practise they invisibly even as very powerfully yet very gradually improve your health on and on.I am certain that such smaller sized exercising,if done constantly each day at leasure/mostly otherwise empty times and for some considerable while too,can give 1 better final health results than can provide much more complicated forms of sporting that each need complicated sportive gear/ways of performing.Life nowadays is full of things,too complicated anyways,and simpler exercises alike are exactly what CAN counterweight successfully the otherwise excessive pressure each human brain has to come through in our everyday lives. 2)) LEGS' TOES EXERCISES These can be practised even as standing upon a certain stable spot,like in line to cashier in a store etc.I often use them exactly in such a situation,as body needs action even as brain its master has to watch over the current situation. HOW TO DO As standing in a stable position,1)pick up the entire weight your body holds with toes of only 1 left leg,the heel/the rest of the body going up with it/not touching the earth;so that these toes cause the body to rise a somewhat;watch out though that you do support the body weight by attaching at least and better 2,1 of your hands to a nearby stable thing like a wall,a counter etc.Next retreat to normalcy when standing as every1 does,have a WEEKEND(i mention this elsewhere),and do the same for 2)your right leg,finishing this cycle by 3)picking the body weight by both the legs' toes;finally giving a bit of rest/no activity at all by your entire body.All the way long i personally count the number of such cycles(1 cycle here is 1)+2)+3)),which works well the way mantras do in hinduism-concentration upon your own speech makes you more capable of performing the action better.Very often i do this exercise as i stand in stores in numerous lines to pay up my bill for foodies i just chose inside of that store.Instead of doing nothing 1 can do such exercising without leaving the line or even obstructing the standing in line of other potential buyers,which are pretty sensitive to things around.

SELF MASSAGE

It applies to exerting pressure to certain points of your body;the pressure you exert then allows additional inflax of your blood towards those areas you find desirable for additional developement;the said inflax of blood increasing work over the just pressured upon areas with blood;and if anything CAN seriously affect the tissues inside of us it is the blood,which is highly specialized to do just that.I personally use it pretty often and find it IF USED CORRECTLY only a very effective method of improving certain bodily parts' condition.1 though will need considerable.Again,in no circumstances must your heart be suffering with it;in some cases other body parts can suffer as well;in my case i might find an eye worsening in eyesight sometimes as i pressurize the tissues,but others would find more complications;the point here is to never endanger any body part,as unlike in yoga(and it is designed so as never to give 1 any problems)this sort of pressure this organism gets might easily go awry and waste a thing or 2;yoga being preplanned to never achieve such dangerous effects,self massage just might do this bad influence.Yet just the way yoga influences a human,self massage,being similar my general influence(yoga pressures from inside of us as your hand(i use 1 for this mostly)influences this organism from its outsides,even as doing the very same action of,simply speaking,adding amounts of blood that work over the disignated for this effect body part,and you can program specific body parts for additional influence with your self massaging practises.Whichever complication arises from this means the corresponding body area pressurizing must be avoided further;and in case you do this self massage correctly(a piece of mastery 1 would better learn gradually)it will easen/improve your life just the way correct use of yoga does,as yoga is nothing but preprogrammed pressurizing of certain body parts for improvement of their general condition while self massage does exactly the same-"blood's heating this organism up" thing,just not upon a preprogrammed basis but upon an freelance and completely unprogrammed basis you both program and execute yourself while yoga is managed by older times' masters for the very same aim achievement;instead,even as with practically the very same effects of additional work of this blood over internal tissues,the result will be more to your personal ideas/approach;dangerous as this approach might certainly be,it also brings additional capacities for health improvement even masters' programmed yoga fails to achieve;while in yoga when you follow THE path all WILL be well,here in self massage 1 must be even better a master of internal management to do it correctly.In this way,even as i practise yoga,i often additionally massage certain areas i find as underdeveloped.Such practises though might get bad for your health IF you perform them uncorrectly;the way to accertain it is to simply watch the reaction of your heart(or other body pieces to that effect)to the additional pressure closely,refusing it in case the heart(it CAN do so easily)starts suffering through such an exercise.Whichever additional health complication is it you are having,its final improvement(even as,indeed,a very slow by time 1)is best achieved not through numerous chemical substances our medicine wants us/recommends to use,but instead through such simple self massage or else yoga as well;because the complication you are having is either a poisoned with chemicals body part or else a badly exercised body piece that simply lacks enough blood fusions around it,fresh air etc;blood preprogrammed to fix most any of simple natural complications with enough time passing,we might use this instrument of body parts self massage more or less freely;slowly yet really for certain self massage/fresh air in quantities will fix most any health condition 1 is having now.My own experience shows though that unlike it is in yoga and other known to humans systems of working out(yoga IS a physical exercising system/body workout as they say it anyways,even as it is never claimed as such by contemporary sports,despising such "feminine" workouts,the body can get REALLY exhausted with self massaging in a really short time the way traditional sporting/workouts can never manage;so watch out for any signs of exhaustion/premature tiredness closely.Internal body pieces(our weirdly weak and overly sensitive brain is a perfect example of this)are tenfold AS weak/sensitive as our external/"street trodding" ones are;unlike the street ones,these also must be watched all too closely to avoid possible complications.AS soon as you are inside of this BAD and unfriendly territory of =damaged organism= leave it right away!

CATANGASANA

This pose isnt seen in any yoga books even as it can be deduced as a part of yoga practise anyway.Most of books on yoga propose us the main and very basic exercises anyway,and we are to develop the theme ourselves afterwards.Yoga books so are nothing but a very general course "one would better know of".Tradition that produced those books(India well before Christ)believed that 1 must develop any theme himself for best results possible.Sometimes a specialist in a theme was a teacher of novices just the way any specialist nowadays has students that try to become masters by watching a larger 1.Some of poses/exercises arent even meant to be displayed as they are potentially much more dangerous for health and might easily endanger your health condition even as their existanse can be deduced out of many other similar/reminding poses;whichever the reason(some are clearly never mentioned in yoga books even as definitely in use by masters)we do not have their descriptions in yoga literature even as they DO exist. HOW TO DO When in Padmasana(you start in it and its the best basic pose to do Catangasana in even as other sitting poses would do too just the way masters describe it),turn your entire body as much leftwards as you can with your face also going as left as it can backbone holding straight preferrably in 1 line all the way,but not with any pressure applied for this at all;**the position must be comfortable in each case**;this latter rule btw is good for any yoga exercise.Stay in this position for as long as you can(i personally leave the position as my breathing becomes laboured/heavy but everyone must find his own best way here)and return to Paripurna Padmasana(this is just what you see in any yoga textbook nominally as Padmasana the lotus pose and the pose,best taken when performing THIS 1,the "crossed legs 1")as tired;the next of the 4(4 = cata in sanskrit,anga=''leaving this centre for that out-of-the-centre'' approximately;and all yoga texts originally were written in that exclusively anscient indian language,the tradition i try to keep to here)positions you take is with your chin and the entire upper body going upwards into the sky;again,as tired of it(and not even as your breathing becomes laboured)you must retreat back to the now comfortable for you Padmasana;the third stage is your body being pulled rightwards(as if you must see something to your right now)till heavy breathing ensuing/loss of comfortability;the last 1 with your chin laying comfortably upon your chest in what yoga masters know as Jalandhara Bandha.Each of these 4 positions pulls your numerous muscles into different directions in 1 single pose/exercise.And after 1 such a cycle you move to the next 1 till the moment you become tired of the pose,not leaving it before that.When in a good condition(sometimes it just wont work as you must be listening to your Kundalini for what it IS ready to perform)i make up to 10 such cycles of "body leftwards-upwards-rightwards-downwards" before i must rest in Shavasana the corpse pose for a while.Most people will find this pose physically too demanding and will not be having any heavy breathing along it the way I personally develop it normally.However,the massage your numerous muscles DO get in this way does deserve its use;the stronger each of your muscles becomes for instance the less possible a heart attack becomes just as well.Such poses both strenghten and gradually elongate your internal muscles,and what 1 sees upon his legs and arms is absolutely less than half of the entire system of muscles;our interior organs holding well over half of this time invisible to us ones too.Stronger and longer though muscles bring healthier heart and also as a long time profit healthier other internal body parts;for instance the digestive system,which is well intertwined with the muscles' one,will then get healthier.What we get inside as our intenal muscles get stronger and more effective roughly reminds a large fat worm of ones we sometimes see feeding itself inside of an apple;as you develop your internal muscles(these though are somewhat different from arms' and legs' ones)they gradually start twitching with exchange of the form inside of us just the way an apple worm(this example is excellent just to understand the resulting influence to the internal health)twitches from side to side in an apple.Its neighbours the other internal body parts like liver,kidneys,spleen etc then get actively pressurized and exercised by these muscles;unable to be physically active upon themselves(their function is mostly to produce certain needed inside life agents out of what we take in a our foods)yet pressured into exercise by these internal muscles(and we all possess these in quantities,even as mostly completely unpractised and in a very weak condition too)internal health of numerous and other decisive for life organs is then guaranteed.After the 4 just mentioned smaller positions you must be proceeding into the next block of 4 smaller positions i just described up there untill the tiredness this pose will bring you anyway becomes a complication.I personally use this pose i never saw in any of yoga/other health related books too each day,find it very demanding physically and eating away amazing chunks of my internal powers very quickly.It is best to use all the 4 smaller positions in 1 single pose practise even as some will find that vertical 2 are better done separately from the horizontal 2;or else vertical ones first and later only horizontal ones.Such a variation does exist but its use simply exercises your muscles in a worse way,which,simply speaking,gives your health less per 1 minute of exercising it.The point of this is to use AS many muscles' pulling/stretching in 1 single exercise as you can because the entire gain you get is then increased several times over;the gain itself being developement of your muscular system harmonically and from many angles of it too. SUPTA CATANGASANA Supta term means ''laying down with face up'' and we perform this very same pose,simply with the padmasana bent legs well above the head and the neck-head block resting upon a blanket.I use both of 1)getting first into Padmasana and 2)performing it while with legs up because for me this is no real complication;yet beginners would better start with Padmasana and then going into the ''legs up'' form(Supta Padmasana pose)as going into the lotus pose while in a topsy-turvy pose(a legs up head down 1)will undoubtedly bring in undesired blood pressure complications 1 always wishes to avoid to newcomers to yoga.I am able to easily be transferred from Catangasana Paripurna(the traditional pose you see everywhere IS Paripurna by traditional books)into the Supta Catangasana variation without complications of any sort,but novices in yoga will find this recommended variation(it simply practises your body better and so IS recommended)hard to perform.You will find that with coming into Padmasana while being in the topsy-turvy position,is only(a desirable 1 though)for masters in yoga and specific acrobatics as it demands from an individual much more capacities.Its preferred performance is recommendable/more desirable though as it additionally pressures your heart and the entire cardiovascular system(arteries/veins,connected to it and moving blood around)so much more and in this way gives it an additional boost/improvement.Again,such details are only for masters of yoga;but knowing which exactly a nicer perfection is awaiting you will undoubtedly boost your entire desire to succeed in yoga and so fasten the process you will follow to get there. HOW TO DO Get into the lotus pose Padmasana.Now push the body upwards with your arms pushing against the ground.Not always easy to achieve,yet with time it will be ok.Now turn your now topsy turvy situated body(legs up head down)leftwards till heavy breathing/discomfort ensues;after reaching it return to the Paripurna Catangasana pose(the basic 1);as well feeling in it finally(might take a bit for newcomers to yoga/this pose),push your legs that are now in the lotus pose downwards so that they preferrably pressed into your abdomen stronger;as uncomfortable,release the pressure you here make upon the abdomen with the heels inside it with;part 3 of the 4(and 4 is CATA in sanskrit)exercise parts is pulling your lower body with bent in lotus pose legs rightwards by the power of your muscles till uncomfortable in it,then you relax a bit in the normal(Paripurna variation)Supta Catangasana and finally 4)pull your lower body as much upwards as able to;in a good variation you will be touching your chin with your bossom now(chinlock in english);this part is very effective with practsisning muscles we almost never use yet which DO need exercise just as well.After finishing this cycle of the just mentioned 1) to 4) repeat it till finally exhausted/tired of the pose;do remember always that(i witnessed ''braking own bones while getting there'' effect myself with some yoga poses-here with yoga this CAN happen unlike in normal life situations as yoga is extremely demanding to your authonomic internal system while i the brain most times operate with external affairs anyway;and know-it IS best to always keep comfortable in whichever yoga pose you are/trying to get into;no final result is ever allowed to tear you off this good state you have to be in always whatever is it you are busy with;and this very interesting lesson only yoga of physical exercises can teach us(even as we need it in each life situation anyway)is 1 of great goods 1 is destined to find in this simply looking physical discipline yoga.Because in yoga there are only 2 variations unlike in normal life:1)We use it correctly and gain or 2)We mistake some steps,make them wrongly and later leave yoga as ''this...".The Supta variation(nondifferent other than done head down legs up)is recommendable as it can interestingly exercise/practise into perfection our blood pressure levels much better than the Paripurna 1;i believe that nice masters of yoga are never subjects to any blood pressure conditions,which are rampant/very destructive nowadays,and even are believed to be ''killer number 1'' of us people yet can be very nicely counteracted with many yoga poses,performed systematically(day by day and month by month i mean,an hour each day or so as nice effects are only to find us with this slow constant approach).Stupid as they might look,the gains 1 finds in such ways is tenfold the amount of physical tension/discomfort 1 simply has to undertake ''to get there'',meaning learning yoga poses performance. SUPTA CATANGASANA Just the way you do Catangasana(preferrably while sitting upright in Padmasana)sitting upright,this pose is practised the very same way,just laying down face upwards.This can be done from Padmasana towards laying down and then pushing your lower torso upwards;or else,and THIS variation demands additional physical capacities 1 might find only later(time brings additional perfection in most any path chosen)you may cross your legs into Padmasana while already being legs upwards head downwards.This variation better practises blood pressure as your heart in it is additionally tasked with pushing the blood through via ways,otherwise never used-with your head down;it is 1 more of topsy turvy poses,great for indulging your blood pressure additionally into working out.Out of many things that CAN exercise your heart and then the thing it does work over tirelessly anyway the blood this most intricate of the body organs blood pressure replacing with a complletely different pressure ones are the strongest and most influencing the blood with great importance;thats because blood pressure changes that occur suddenly at a specific moment,and which are changing the current blood pressure into a SO much larger 1 is actually killer number 1 of human beings;and so when we AS simply as replace our current blood pressure with a slightly different 1(topsy-turvy poses with head down and legs up do this in great sizes)we exercise our blood/heart/internal pressure greatly;and so i highly recommend to(no novices are good here but mostly experienced yogis though)specifically collect legs into Padmasana as already being with head down and legs up-this way exercises the blood system a much better perfection.

DWANDVA YOGASANA

Dwandwa Yogasana is when you sit stably in the lotus pose Padmasana and,after achieving it and feeling stable in it too(it takes a minute-2 to get there),you lower your upper body to the bent in padmasana legs so that it touches first the left leg's heel,bent in Padmasana and then(but after getting the body up again and a certain needed relaxation too)the right 1 too after returning for a relaxation to the Paripurna Padmasana(the 1 that you can see in any yoga book on shelves)pose.What influences your health strongly here is:(1)massage the heel gives to your abdominal cavity(your backbone must be AS straight for this purpose as it comfortably can),pressurizing your digestive organs seriously here,and also:(2)additional extensions your connected to the backbone/ribs cage and surrounding it muscles do achieve as the result.It though isnt the heels what turns muscles a lot here;if you consider muscular system(Kundalini)of your entire body,too many of its muscles are at work as you turn from 1 side to the other 1 in this pose;all the muscles of your abdomen,legs,and the chest as well.Yoga in general tends to not only develop,extend and strenghten/elongate one's muscles(THE task most any other workout takes up),but along with it also develop by physically pressurizing them your abdominal cavity's specialized digestive organs like stomach,liver,kidneys etc;and unlike normal workouts,busy with activizing externally visible body parts/muscles,yoga offers its practitioner also internal body parts perfectioning.Always give the body a ralaxing break till it can be back to exercising;in this pose till you again feel comfortable in Padmasana;return to yoga,which seriously overstretches body capacities upon a regular basis as a matter of normal thing,may only be done as you finally feel comfortable in the pose you perform currently and not any before,so watch for signs of physical exhaustion,which must be avoided at all costs-it can very easily happen and really wastes away the great profits 1 can find in yoga.1 who is efficient in Padmasana(not at all normal among people,who may get the body stretched instead till it CAN be stretched out comfortably and no more)will be able to easily touch the legs with his upper chest and even the floor with his forehead;this effect though is not for beginners in yoga.I personally(and i am a nice yoga master now after many years of practising it)sometimes cannot do certain poses correctly(the way they are shown in books),but instead prefer to stop at that exact point in time,where those poses become troublesome and overextending my,let us say,for now pleasant and not demanding this,a request;as THE real point 1 must search in yoga is no ''correct performance of a pose'' but instead physical satisfaction/pleasure and good condition in which you are as you are just out of any yoga practising session/most any pleasing you exercise to that too.Because if you fail to find pleasure and satisfaction in yoga you wont be back to it later.Too many yoga attemptees turned away from it once overpressured in it,and yoga CAN and does overpressure your body easily.DWANDWA is a sanskrit term that tells us that 2 very similar sides of the very same exercise are performed 1 after another continuously;here these are both (1)first lowering to the left and then (2)lowering main torso down rightwards after it.As done with both (1) and (2),keep repeating this cycle till excessively tired of this Dwandwa Yogasana pose.When in Padmasana and lowering the body downwards,it is best to first turn the body leftwards,touching the legs with it to the left so,and then,as back up to Padmasana and fully recovered from it too(1 must wait till feeling good in Padmasana again as up to the lotus pose),repeat the same body lowering to the right side,and to touch the legs with the breast already right from the legs.Such a floor touching with the breast is the best of variations,even as not the only 1 at all.This pose is particularly good for numerous muscles that surround your lower back torso and the lower backbone too.Such a changing from right side to the left 1 is traditionally called ''Dwandwa...'' in yoga.This particular pose(for masters it makes heavy breathing come easily as going down and upon the heels finally)has stronger influence i personally recognize as a stronger that the Yogasana has,it is never mentioned in yoga books yet can be deduced out of general yoga practising.Its additional value Yogasana does NOT possess comes from turning sideways of the backbone and the muscles that surround it especially;the turning that rotates the backbone and its particular backbone segments as well,and SO practises backbone muscles additionally.A master of this pose can make like 20 such turns ''upwards Padmasana-left side Dwandwa Yogasana-returning to Padmasana as tired-right sided Dwandwa Yogasana'' with effects that boost the condition of the entire backbone surrounding muscles following suit and still not overtire the system.This pose though is not for beginners in yoga as it demands a very good condition(and velocity/capacities)of one's backbone and its numerous muscles.This is 1 of my own favourite poses/exercises.Do not overtire the system though with prolonged stay in the pose as the condition the system works at can be easily falling;always watch for tiredness/heavy breathing and such to stop the pose right away-these things CAN overheat the sensitive internal metabolism 1 has inside.

TOPSY TURVY "1 PADA ...'' POSES

Never did i see descriptions of such poses(exercises)in any books about yoga even as i saw several larger ones nicer yoga specialists wrote;of those best i read were yoga books by B.K.S.Iyengar,who was a great yoga teacher/specialist at around 1960 in India;even as existance of these poses(just as it is with so many life events we lack anyways)can be deduced by 1 who researches this subject of yoga persistantly enough upon a regular/constant basis.The poses i describe here are only loosely belonging to yoga postures because yoga is,roughly speaking,a science about how to find peace AND great physical condition ALONG WITH just mentioned PEACE OF MIND,peace of mind being the main task.My OWN version of yoga though(wise people always have their own attitude to every subject and take out of it only pieces they DO like,rejecting pieces they do not like,refusing to notice other its pieces and it is normal too,is much more sportive and acrobatics' orientated.Because i suppose that it is not wise to keep to your brain's good condition while your body is still getting weak blood supply/feeding/oxygen approach etc.Anscient yogis were suffering exactly from THIS sort of addiction-1 that refused to deal with internal body necessities but concentrates mostly on peace of mind,even if this peace comes via physical perfection.What we see in those texts is always the simplest/ ost concise/most accessible part an exercise has,additional perfection added with time.In these poses your lower body parts get nice physical exercise that remind traditional street jogging/running,while the upper body portions like the head,shoulders etc get much richer blood supply just AS well,with blood being under a greater pressure to squeeze through the body,the other/lower body part like legs is engaged into active acrobatics(here your lower body is running the way a street guy runs)and the both(brain and legs' pieces)gain from this a common action additionally,like the brain finds in it even richer blood supply even as the legs are running the way any street runner does.Their common wealth increases best exactly in this a way.Most of poses i propose here arent exclusively yoga even as they CAN be seen as a part of yogic stuff,but are also developement into smaller body parts like muscles etc,all of which might get additional developement just as well;it is what yoga itself generally fails to achieve.Being never for newcomers to physical activities,these poses/exercises will develop both your internal extremely important glands like thyroid,kidneys etc additionally in comparison to what yoga books would give you AND the legs' muscles just AS well.And even as upper body parts indeed get so much better blood circulation during this pose,the lower body parts like legs,knees,blood itself(blood IS the lowest ever level inside of a human body organism)are unexpectedly active with great speeds increasing all along the definitely better peace the mind 1 finds in the pose just AS well.And so,strictly speaking,"1 Pada..." poses are a live mix of both yoga and pretty radical(demanding physically)acrobatics,because the positions of legs exchanges ARE acrobatic monouevers anyway;my own experience shows that exactly THIS variation(it feeds better both brain AND the physical body needs)is most effective for the both,brains/specific glands etc AND lower bodily muscles too.Here in Haifa by the flea market(where i am pretty often)there are several very old structures,used as homes even before the english rule was around,i would roughly guess their origin at the middle of 1800-es.Now in the latest years the government started adding to them new very contemporary upper levels/floors,which use those older levels as support for newer contemporary ones;also meant for human apartments while smaller buldings hold offices of notaries etc.The lower older structures hold the new comtemporary ones/levels in 1 piece even as upper floors keep the society alive and prospering,working cash bringing jobs i'd guess.Now this "1 Pada ... " poses remind exactly this situation,where older too ancient levels(its what traditional yoga is supposed to bring us)are profiting from the upper ones as those,not allowing them to fall down,also gain as they do not fall apart(and they would if left to stand just so).The lower anscient levels in the poses is headstand Shirshasana and newer ones are much what street running is.Upper body parts profit too nicely even themselves,as the blood streaming through my arteries in these poses hits their walls with like twice or thrice the strenght it would hit them(tissues following suit as profiteers sure)in traditionally seen Shirshasana variations.Yet the amazingly greatly feeling itself heart(1 always has to stop at the correctly right moment anyway and i am a master of this art by now)keeps supporting both the lower levels AND the pretty much great acrobatics(thats what sportive people would call this),performed upon the upper levels,and these are exchanging the position of my legs;only greatly developed physically people can manage such extensive sporting,which goes along with older structures(brain,tissues)profiting all along too.Strictly speaking,even as called by sanskrit names,the "1 Pada ..." poses are acrobatics of a higher level,funnily co-existing with older yoga poses,which greatly profit from them juast as well.In contemporary language the exercise can also be seen as "running while standing upon your own head".The main of these topsy-turvy poses that divert blood into a new direction is the king pose Shirshasana,even as the description is very same to each of the several poses with the legs stretched upwards and the head down. HOW TO DO As upon your head(with the head downwards in other but a headstand variation poses)and stably to it(it takes me a minute or so to become stable in any pose so better wait out this time!),lower your left leg,bending it at the knee,so that it preferrably touched the left buttock by simply ''letting the leg go'' and fall down towards the left buttock.As your breathing becomes laboured/heavy with the pose finally(it is best to hold on to the pose till your breathing becomes laboured,returning to the Paripurna variation,or the normally seen in books 1);with myself it takes just a little to achieve laboured breathing as my organism is both sensitive and well practised with yoga exercising;but others will develop heavy breathing only after some time),return the leg to its original Paripurna Shirshasana position(the 1,shown in every yoga book-legs straight up head down).As your condition IS stabilized after the exercise(heavy breathing and discomfort disappearing),and you will feel it IS back to normal,repeat the same with the right leg this time(we started bending the left 1)by lowering it down while bent at the right knee.And the 3rd,the last stage of this block of 3 ''1 pada...''poses is to lower BOTH the legs down at the same time;this 1 brings you exhaustion somewhat faster and accordingly tires the heart more just as well.Because 1 must know that what really is under pressure in such poses is no muscles and no legs but the very blood itself.If you try to imagine just what happens inside of the body as your legs go down while in a headstand you will see that nothing does change except for the condition of different blood volumes that fill the separate compartments of your legs and other body parts too,even as less than the ones in your legs.These suddenly experience internal blood pressure changes,which are then destined to very easily yet for certain exercise your blood in a very simple yet in a long run a very efficient way.This internal to nothing but blood itself exercise of smaller changes inside of different volumes your blood has throughout your body(as say the thigh blood volume IS suddenly here different by blood pressure to the volume of let us say the ''under-the-knee'' area)has to then put the blood inside of you under considerable internal pressure of the sudden need to quickly adjust to what you make it do while exchanging the blood flow direction freely here.Once resuming your good condition(each of such 3 repeated till exhaustion lowerings is a considerable effort your heart and the blood itself too comes through as you will easily find after finally going down to rest in Shavasana and feeling your heart's condition upon the neck situated/carotid artery with your fingers,and this DOES show the condition of the heart's work very well indeed;the heart's final condition felt as excellent with the fingers upon the carotid artery)lower the next of the 3 just mentioned body pieces.For me(and i am a seasoned yogi)the number of such changes per a headstand is around 30 when i am in a good,not too tired a condition;but most people and beginners in yoga especially,will find this block of leg-bending-in-topsyturvy-poses a pretty hard task to accomplish.This specific exercise is an excellent workout your heart and even better,your blood itself,gets,a much better 1 than applying leeches(yet another,even as a very similar to it,a booster to the blood itself of a very similar influence).No leeches necessary,and their life byproducts(what we call leeches' excrements too)ARE able to complicate our internal condition;the effect influencing us with these poses here is very similar though-very simple work that our blood producing and then regulating its condition,and there ARE such too,organs(these are based inside of our bones so we may know just HOW important they are as the limits this body goes just to safeguard these especial for health organs IS extensive just the way it is in case of the brain itself)-ALL extremely important body pieces are well enclosed/incased into well boned surfaces;then do simply to reproduce the blood as it is either lost to leeches or else has to be reenvigourated back into a decent working condition with something as in this pose;these blood producing organs were sometimes additionally activated in human history past by applying leeches;THIS though a method of ALSO additional activization of those blood producing bones' marrow mini organs brings with itself no such complications and its use is even simpler;this interesting thing yoga can do is 1 of its very useful side effects 1 might find.Additional substantial works the blood has to come through in this simple way absolutely call for more investments the way blood producing bone based agents to support this VERY centre of the organism,and the blood IS the real central piece of any human body,such things red blood marrows do normally;the VERY basic things doing wonders to our overall health even as never AS much as any noticed by our eyes,even as yes giving 1 very substantial health benefits IN THE LONG RUN of health events.No doubt that such a basic operation as new blood cells' production(just what blood marrow does normally)must be making substantial changes the blood simply has than to come through,the process greatly improving the blood condition all the way.As leeches CAN be harmful(the effect is indeed similar),these poses that also boost blood condition arent harming the body in any way.And if 1 follows the arguements pretty closely he will find that correctness of those is obvious.1 must be of sufficient proficiency with the main yoga pose Shirshasana to do this particular pose though;this pose is not for yoga beginners at all as its use might bring 1 unwelcome losses with the backbone condition like inverted backbone segments and even backaches;so watch your backbone closely for any signs of malfunction and/or aches please!No backaches are ever allowed here;they are a definite sign that the exercise must be stopped immidiately!These topsy turvy ''1 pada poses'' are never shed any light in any yoga books even as their profit is pretty serious and they are better practised.These ''1 pada...'' poses though may not be practised right after getting up from bed,and this is the reason i guess they are never mentioned in yoga literature-they just might get dangerous,just the way they ARE if done right after getting up from bed.Lately i did make this exact mistake,yes doing the poses after getting up.Feeling my heart with my fingers upon the carotid artery(normal assess of heart condition method here)after the pose just done i found my heart in a great condition,yet making its progress with a definitely slowed down premeditatingly tempo.This happened as the blood itself,this specific ever moving body part,got excessively overtired while doing this blood overengaging pose,and SO the heart,being in great condition as it was evidently,was obliged to comfort its main subject the blood with much slower push of the blood through the arteries.Overactive and strong normally after yoga even this early in the morning,it suddenly showed MUCH slower pace of action applied.This very interesting example of yoga exercising shows just how important for blood ''1 pada ...'' poses are-as they THIS much overtire the blood,which can NOT be seen in other ways of perception.The poses are a much better way of perfecting blood condition than the older method of internal very basic conditions ''bloodletting'' ever is.Being somewhat of a nice specialist in these ''1 pada...'' poses(this effect comes to you only after numerous exercising sessions and mastery over any pose)i can make somewhere inbetween 50 and 200 of such ''rounds'' of 3 repeating each other smaller positions when i return to this pose,the repeating themselves blocks of 3 exercises(namely:1))left leg down;2))left 1 up,when comfortable-the right 1 down till discomfort achieved,and 3))both the legs down)finilized only when(it takes me no less than 5 minutes to find my heart exhausted)the heart becomes weak and approaches failure.1 can only guess the profit his blood finds in this particular pose-blood and its condition are never seen with our eyes;yet my experience and feelings tell me of numerous exhaustive overexercising the blood finds while i perform this particular pose.However,this pose must never be practised as your day is only starting-if yes done early after bed it can exhaust the blood itself,and none wants this.1 Pada Shirshasana simply is not for the very start of one's day-it can overexhaust/dangerously overextend capacities the blood holds on to;however,other topsy-turvy poses(head down legs up like 1 Pada Viparita Karani etc)can be performed without many complications in a day start hours just as well in case the yogi is in a good enough for this a condition(not a novice).As my own experience/internal feeling tells me(i use this pose frequently,finding it to be just the perfect tool to boost the real basics of my organism and watching its works in action)this particular pose engages/activizes the red marrows that exist inside of the bones and which produce then new blood cells that later join the bloodstream to invigorate the blood;blood though,increased in numbers of its most basic cells,later is more realistic in performing its duties as the organism's provider of sorts.These "1 pada..." poses are attachable to:headstands Shirshasana,Sarvangasana,ones i myself like adding to - Viparita Karani;and other topsy-turvy poses as well.The more frequently do you lower your legs down the better your health will be here;i personally came to find what i call "step" of my exercises in this pose;such 1 step is roughly the lenght of time,during which your legs change from upwards position into the downwards 1 with resulting blood production and internal processes increasing in speed/productivity;and i find my step varying from 1.6(best of MY own capacities shown in it)seconds to almost nonexistent/very weak 1 at around 3 seconds per 1 step(during these 3 seconds 1 of my legs gets from pointing upwards to then pointing downwards and later/finally to the original Paripurna position with legs toes facing upwards again).These intricate "1 pada..." poses though are never for beginners and this is exactly why they are never mentioned in any yoga sources even as i am certain they were well known to older yoga masters-if used uncorrectly they CAN and will damage your precious health;the only cure against yes possible here health complications(1 might develop,say,heavily overworked and so endangered blood production cells in one's bone marrows as those are in need of careful orchestration)is to feel approching danger "by your inner senses" as they say,and these inner senses are pretty hard to develop.However,all said and properly warned against possible misuse,the "1 pada..." poses are THAT powerful and influential to one's health that i strongly recommend their use as a goal a healthy individual searches for.The gift they do give must be similar to the gift drugs like cocaine/heroin etc give a human-strenghtened capacities/better condition etc;their effect though is perfectly natural and healthy even as touching the very same things that boost a human being after drugs' use.Drugs' power and influence is nothing else but touching/pressing/activizing our inner well hidden spots with their purely temporary activization and resulting from this boost in internal condition,which with time will not only evaporate into nothing,worse,the effect will bring with itself complications 1 then needs to come through;yet poses like "1 pada..." ones can do the very same thing drugs/narcotics are able to give,even as never endangering those areas of specific agents' productions.Because this body never reacts nicely to drugs/all the chemically based/produced agents and tends to get really exhausted after their use,refusing to perform even ANY activity these are supposed to perform;these methods though use no chemical and so foreighn to this body agents but instead the very same body and its original mechanisms we then practise and direct into petterment/improvement. STEP This term is connected to the time,which it takes from you to perform 1 full cycle of "2 legs up-1 leg down-the leg back up";the smaller in seconds this step for you the better.If doing yoga in a nicer condition(mornings/start of yoga exercising)i personally achieve best of my results with step of around 1.6 to 1.8 seconds with worst results running around 3 full seconds(when tired/unable to perform well).Noting such results will inevitably boost your sportive performance(in reality and in hands of real yoga masters yoga is nothing else but 1 more sport that particularly well develops the inner homeostatic processes)with better physical condition achieved simply faster as attention here increases with the effect of better final results following suit;this is a very practical piece of such calculations and terms 1 better finds use of. WEEKEND I found experimentally that just the way saturday and sunday actually increase output of any of our human activities(thats exactly why we do have weekends btw and for no other reason many claim for them-they simply increase the final output of any human activities)the very same "free of any activities period" any weekend is is also better performed after each cycle of "2 legs up-1 leg down-both back up" simply to increase and improve the very results we'd be getting if having no weekends at all.Funnily weekends greatly increase results from any activities we do;because otherwise we would simply never have any weekends around.And after completing this cycle i mention above(1 leg up-going down-its return upwards)we must have also a weekend-time,free from any tensions in the legs just the way weekend is free from any things around,as both the legs are up and relaxing in Paripurna Shirshasana position.It takes from me a couple of seconds to get full rest/relaxation legs need to recover nicely,because they just MUST get a break after each cycle for better results);but watch for some relaxation and rest to yes take place in your tired by now knee areas(the knee areas are getting the hardest hit this exercise makes to the health).This blood internal processes' boosting effect "1 pada..." poses DO always bring their practitioner is very similar to the effect drugs bring to a human being i notice.Once or twice as i actually failled to(i perform these poses regularly with interest,arising out of effective results)perform my daily "1 pada Shirshasana" poses the effect was very similar to things i'd be experiencing with sudden lack of drugs if i did take these(was a drug addict or so);the resulting lack of BOOST TO the very INTERNAL bodily WORKS my blood performs left me then powerless and without any good condition whatsoever.And i was experiencing only upper brainy results;lower ones(much more serious in the blood)are never reaching the brain as there never was any need for this effect in the days of yore,when we humans appeared.Human bodily system though(unlike the brain,the ME we know us to be)runs around very much by the very same rules that existed once long ago when human beings only appeared upon this planet.It isnt always good to use headstands in the very beginning of a day because the backbone muscles are not in a good enough a condition for it often as you are just up from bed/sleeping.I personally would even recommend to avoid using headstands right after bedtime.However,some "1 pada..." poses CAN be used early mornings as well;in particular 1 Pada Viparita Karani is not harmful right after 1 wakes up and gets out of bed.This pose involves after laying down in Shavasana getting your legs upwards along with your thighs/entire bodily corpus with the power of the arms;then supporting the lower body weight with the arms,holding the thighs right above the buttocks and in the back/lower parts of your backbone.After this is achieved 1 bends his left leg in the knee,it falls down to touch the left buttock,a WEEKEND(time free of any muscles' hardships/tensions)ensues,then left leg goes back up;then same for the right leg;finally BOTH the legs do this exchange from up to down to buttocks to back upwards.This particular pose,unlike headstands/Shirshasana(backbone isnt always good for it after sleeping),is perfectly possible to perform even as 1 only got up from bed/sleeping and i DO think that starting every day with exercise is a recommendable thing.Some say that washing the face with water from tap is the best way to start a day;but this is good for people,who work face as the main instrument in life;while for some this isnt so and they work their physical bodies as THE main life instrument;exactly for such people is yoga as a day start occupation;as going outdoors(to do sporting)isnt available as the day has just come in yoga IS available and CAN tune 1 into the right direction right after waking up.These "1 pada..." poses actually have a stronger effect upon one's body than sex does and everyone knows just how much stronger does 1 feel during sex-it simply releases powers 1 fails to achieve otherwise.If we try to consider what exactly is happening in this body while we are having sex we will find that things,responsible for the attached to it uprise and increase of power/capacities are direct result of boost of activity of highly specialized organs(glands)that produce specific hormones 1 needs during sexual intercourse,and exactly because these glands get activized we do have the resulting boost of power/capacities.However these glands(like ones that ovaries produce as under considerable pressure from the brain,because thats JUST what happens in such situations)are less powerful an instrument in BOOSTing the INTERNAL MECHANISMS(and these increase our homeostatic processes tenfold simply speaking)than massaging the blood itself,because during such "1 pada ..." poses what indeed does happen/brings opiatelike improvements in an organism is pressurizing the blood itself.If we try to consider the nature of the changes we will see-blood's internal pressure rhytmically exchanging itself the way ocean waves change its surface and such CHANGES IN PRESSURE INSIDE OF the BLOOD itself(this would be the very lowest and most powerful level we might ever influence)are responsible in result for the boost in general condition 1 certainly experiences as performing these "1 pada..." poses.Like this the poses have a larger influence upon this organism than even sex does.The stuff is only known/experienced by yoga/health masters,which are ever reluctant to release/open these secrets to public.Just the way it is with hinduism,where students approach a master,who teaches them(thats what IS known of such things)the art himself,only masters can show 1 way into this "trove of happiness" as hindu worshippers occasionally claim.Just as in most any other life branch though these results of lower HOMEOSTATIC PROCESSES BOOST only can be reached with holding on to a specific technology,in this(very simple a)case the correct performance of this pose;because unless the pose is performed correctly/with regard to all limitations involved they will not produce the desired result,and thats exceptional boost to homeostatic processes this body holds on to.The situation reminds me 1 of claims playing cards hold,that the ace is even more than the king himself;ace being 1 and accordingly the most basic physical things like internal homeostasis etc.And when king(face of this game lets say)is not able to influence things strongly enough,ace yes can do this often;homeostatic processes,strongly boosted(here different blood pressures inside of this blood interchanging rhytmically and for a long time)and for a while too,can do so much more than its face might ever do.Here in Haifa some buildings that were built in old ages are added with upper stories nowadays;these upper stories not only need their support,they also give longer years to the below them and as support situated old things,built well before english rule was around in Haifa.Indeed,these "1 pada..." poses well remind this example-they are based upon old and long gone/less developed structures of old ages-yoga in this case.Supporting the headstand pose itself,upon the shirshasana pose base they develop what modern physical art might call acrobatics,because it IS roughly speaking,serious acrobatics,-to swing your legs phytmically up and then down for a long time/while(this morning i did this exactly for 20 minutes at 1 time,standing upon my own head)and i even guess that this exact composition of the both in 1 thing/exercise gives the both otherwise abscent yet necessary boost to exist.Headstands arent the only "1 pada..." poses 1 might do;i recommend for this other topsy-turvy poses just as well(less effective though-use these too):1 Pada Viparita Karani,1 pada Niralamba Sarvangasana etc.Their real effect is the just mentioned stable and the way sea waves exchange each other effective pressure of different sized blood pressure upon the blood itself;this effect of the Ace(and blood IS the ace here)that card games main actor is so much more than even the King(face lets say)might ever do;this old times' idea seems useful even nowadays.As 1 does the pose(and it involves rhytmical exchanges of legs' positions the way sea waves replace each other)it influences his blood to that a degree as to substantially boost/increase speed of activities of cells 1's blood consists of;even as his heart itself does not feel THIS size of internal pressurizing(heart is a separate from the blood organ,which simply works with/conducts it and its nice condition can be felt upon the carotid artery right after the exercise),the blood IS under extreme pressure and it DOES feel the great changes involved here.If you fail/neglect to perform WEEKEND as you do the pose blood cells are under serious pressure,which might result in death of some blood cells;in real life and from our external point of view it can be seen in the way i noticed rusty dark areas around the places my legs normally hold on to blood for too long in,and these are around the knees and the places,where tendons touch normal tissues.As 1 does these poses,the speed of all actions in the blood rises dramatically and i would guess up to 5 times the size the blood normally has to work with;and the dark areas are nothing but dead blood cells,still retained in the areas.What happens here is what happens during a stampede inside of a large population demonstartion;as all cells/people march normally(and blood is overactive here),some debousheers to break order become overnervous,wreaking havoc inside of it;like this some of the cells,engaged in orderly activities,die out;others move on unstopped/with no help to weaker ones as i direct the blood into overactivity the "1 Pada..." poses inevitably bring to the blood.And the fact that some or this extremely organized group of bodily cells(blood IS 1 absolutely)is dying out(it never happens in normal activities 1 performs)shows just to HOW LARGE A PRESSURE had just increased the blood pressure levels around the knees.Practical outcome out of this situation is that 1 has to always keep up to WEEKEND as a definitely unavoidable part of this specific exercise "1 Pada..." has and try to always await the final relaxation his blood must get at the very end of each of preferrably more numerous cycles "Both legs up-1 leg down-both legs back up",or what i myself call a STEP.Now as i perform this 1 Pada Shirshasana pose(daily and several to 10 times each day)the STEP for me is inbetween 0.83(seconds per 1 cycle of legs throwing around)the best and 1.3 the worst(smaller ones arent noticeable even as they are often on.What is good in "1 Pada..."poses is peaceful and so increasing each other's effect coexistance of: 1)Headstand the famous and effective yoga pose from your belt up together,and it boosts your brains with 2)Pretty heavily physically affecting you contemporary acrobatics as your legs constantly exchange their places even as the brain in the meanwhile profits from them tenfold(10 times so)as a normal headstand pose affects your brain.While as you measure your blood pressure upon the carotid artery(right abive your thyroid gland that centers your neck)with your fingers right after this pose you will find your blood pressure amazingly intact and like with no major weakening.Heart no weakening down along with boost of blood's condition(pumping it all the time will do to this body part number 1 exactly this)is 1 great effect 1 will not wish to relinquish;hard as it certainly is to perform,this pose still is a highly recommendable thing for every sports/health orientated person to perform daily.1 more thing worth mentioning about this pose is its stronger influence than traditionally seen for headstand pose 1 is;the same effect(stronger as your legs somewhat exchange their places frequently)is achieved SO much faster;and the sleepy condition you are certain to achieve(with your eyes closing down and yourself drifting off easily)with traditional headstands(Shirshasana yogic pose)will find you less than after a half of the same time,spent Shirshasana pose.In these "1 Pada..." poses what really gains a lot and practises into perfection are 1)and mostly your blood,which is the lowest level you can ever influence your body / health upon and then 2)your heart.And while changes your blood DOES come through are never reported into the brain(we never needed this once we started to be important upon the Earth),condition of your heart muscle IS reported into the brain and so can be monitored closely,which is highly recommended;because AS soon as serious heart tiredness appears you must stop practising these "1 Pada..." poses right away-those lower health levels are extremely sensitive and can be easily influenced.I already can hear critics saying that it just isnt realistic to follow such exercises correctly as "they are way too hard".Wasnt for me either;but practise makes perfect;the longer you try the sooner you find the result.Once it wasnt easy for me to bend my legs into the lotus pose;it took months and months,later more than a year just to achieve the effect of heels touching the abdomen;but i knew what exactly was then expected out of it,which pushed me along.Best advertisement is what you find not along the way there,but instead what awaits you right upon the desired/not reached yet spot.Real life seen yogis are telling us exactly what that will be in some future.Start from bits and move along a little at a time;just remember the golden rule:"ANY ache/inconvenience-& i am off all of the program now".It will be long in this way indeed;but no real fall will touch you here and yoga history is full of spectacular downfalls."1 Pada..."poses are only to be a good thing for you if you are for a long way upon the road to health and yoga perfection;for beginners they just arent the point to reach/consider seriously.When recently i had a serious fall in health/my overall condition,these poses were nor requested by the body and so will it be for most beginners just as well.Much complicated poses like this 1 are for promoted health condition only.My body only agreed to perform this pose(i always do exercise only if i feel the body WILL gain,and thats the explanation to the idea of "body agreeing")after a great health downfall after it reached its older nicer condition with time;this noted time much delayed;some days of very gradual return to normalcy here.The REAL hit the health gets with this pose is rhytmical exchange of blood pressure volumes "higher-to lower-to higher" again as you move your legs above your head;if you consider just how exactly does the blood pressure here varies from 1 to a new size and back,you'll see just how big this exercise is for your health quite clearly;blood is the lowest level you can work over your health with;influencing it might do a lot of good.I ventured into these "1 Pada..." poses quite accidentally as my joints/blood volumes inside etc are quite elaborated into their sizes(are longer/more voluminous in blood than most of people have them naturally)as i feed almost completely upon liquid foods,avoiding hard foods if i only can.Larger blood volumes and longer joints WILL bring you more physical activity in the end;thats 1 of consequences of liquid only feeding;having these larger/more voluminous then will bring along 1 moore thing-DEMAND from these latter to be active/more physically active than most people around you normally are.The thing that is going on in you as you "run while standing upon your head" as i often call these "1 Pada..." poses is rhytmical(which is never moving elsewhere but into what you pull it into)exchange of blood pressures your lower/upper from the knees legs' parts do hold to themselves;imagine just how powerful such a low extremities' change level might bring your health as most serious changes we CAN introduce here are always based upon the ever lowest levels we might approach.I am 53 as i write this and i do believe that none i ever saw had such a young/capable stance/physical capacities as i do;unless 1 introduces lowest ever levels to changes these wont bring serious results.Hard as it certainly IS for a newcomer to heavy physical exercises("1 Pada..." poses ARE)to perform these,1 CAN and will go there knowing just how much better one's life will be once he DOES go into the direction.I know that heart conditions,strife nowadays and being killer number 1 of us contemporary people(i saw statistics of worldwide medical community),will never touch ME,exactly because of thingies of the sort these "1 Pada..." poses are.If anything DOES get stronger/more effective with those,heart IS the first thing that gains with these.And whichever gains 1 might get,these OWN ONES are able to elongate and make those other oner simply more profitable/longer by time of performing them.Users of mostly liquid food sources,myself included,know that it massively elongate/encrease in litrage/size the inner to the body intestines/thingies that process food they consume.Increased litrage/volume of those inner mechanisms with time also increases in size/elongates other body parts like tendons,muscles of sorts;these just get longer/stronger;hence users of liquid foods mostly will 1 day need a lot of exercise these latter will undoubtedly NEED;and these "1 Pada..." poses are exactly how such exercises are best/wisely managed,without too many complications to their users.Thats exactly how many sportsmen NEED to throw around a weight just to keep their bodies in THE form.
