Hatha Yoga
Hatha-Yoga is a Sanskrit term. This type of yoga, through the precise and rhythmic practice of postures, allows the practitioner to master the body and the senses. It finds its origin in ancient texts, the yoga sutras of Patanjali.
Hatha-Yoga is also inspired by three other traditional Sanskrit texts:
- Hatha-Yoga - Pradipika, (from the 15th century Indian sage named Svatmarama),
- Gheranda Samhita,
- Shiva Samhita.
Hatha yoga works on postures
Hatha-Yoga is a series of very simple or more complicated postures (asanas in Sanskrit).
Hatha-Yoga being a discipline that is for everyone, there are different levels depending on whether you are a beginner or more experienced in the discipline.
Unlike a gymnastic sequence, the postures must be maintained long enough: about 3 minutes per posture.
We associate breath control (pranayama) and concentration.
The benefits of Hatha-Yoga: better shape
As with other forms of yoga, Hatha-Yoga allows an improvement in the overall form of the practitioner, as the practice progresses. We recognize many benefits:
On the physical level:
- More flexibility,
- A strengthened skeleton and joints and the disappearance of back problems;
- On the mental level:
- More concentration,
- Improved memorization,
- A clearer mind;
- On an emotional level:
- Better stress management,
- Less anxiety,
- Better quality of sleep.
All this can only be seen if one is assiduous in its practice. Hatha-Yoga, like all other forms of yoga, requires patience and perseverance and above all very regular practice!
