I have been attending yoga classes for sometime now. Why am I not noticing much improvement in my health?
From my experience this is usually due to a ‘mindset’ problem. Get rid of the mindset that ‘yoga is exercise’. The mind and breath play a major role. Look again at the Choosing a Teacher and the Yoga Gems links. Yoga is a holistic system – the word ‘holistic’ is derived from the word ‘whole’. Unless you really look at your mind and body as one integrated system you will not perform yoga with the right technique and attitude. A good yoga teacher will always take a holistic approach to teaching yoga.
