Yoga For Overall Health

(January 30, 2009)

I am 21 year old girl,vital status 34-27-42, I feel very shy due 2 my heavy thighs and hips.Please suggest me a perfect yoga asana and also suggest that can I use morning walker

Why do you want to use the morning walker when you can go out for a walk instead? Going for an early morning walk has more benefits then you know. For one you get more fresh air and oxygen and if you live by the sea then you can benefit by the ozone present in the early morning air. That will help to improve your overall health and not just the shape of your legs.

Apart from exercising you should also pay attention to what you eat. You have not mentioned your height or weight here but from your stats it seems like you might be overweight. You need to eat a well balanced diet that is free from excess oil, spice and salt. Eat plenty of fresh vegetables, sprouts and fruits that will cleanse and detoxify your body and will get rid of unhealthy fat deposits. Also have plenty of water throughout the day as it will flush out the toxins and keep your system clean and active. You should totally avoid overeating and also avoid the refined, processed junk foods that are loaded with preservatives and unhealthy fats. Stick to simple fresh natural foods and eat on time.

Besides this you can practice Dhyana or meditation to help you calm down and get rid of your stress. It will also help to boost your concentration and focus that is essential for practicing the pranayama or the breathing exercises and the yoga asanas or postures. You should practice Pranayama next after 15 to 20 minutes of Dhyana or meditation. This will help to increase your lung capacity, will harmonize and correct your breathing pattern and will also clear the blockages in your system. This will help to improve the functioning of your lymphatic drainage and will help to tone your body. Practice kapalbhati or the breath of fire daily after doing Dhyana or meditation and pranayama or the breathing exercises, as it will help to tone your abdomen and waist. Besides this you can practice the yoga asanas or postures such as Surya Namaskar or the sun salutation, Uttana asana or the standing forward bend, Ardha Chandra asana or the half moon pose, Parivritta Trikonasana or the revolved triangle pose, Ardha Matsyendrasana or the twist pose, Janu Shirshasana or the head to knee forward bend, Paschimottanasana or the forward bend pose and inversions like Viparita Karani or the upside down pose and Sarvangasana or the shoulder stand.
