Two men meet on the street.
One asks the other: "Hi, how are you?"
The other one replies: "I'm fine, thanks."
"And how's your son? Is he still unemployed?"
"Yes, he is. But he is meditating now."
"Meditating? What's that?"
"I don't know. But it's better than sitting around and doing nothing!"

Don't just do something -- Sit there!

A student went to his meditation teacher and said, "My meditation is horrible! I feel so distracted, or my legs ache, or I'm constantly falling asleep. It's just horrible!"

"It will pass," the teacher said matter-of-factly.

A week later, the student came back to his teacher. "My meditation is wonderful! I feel so aware, so peaceful, so alive! It's just wonderful!"

"It will pass," the teacher replied matter-of-factly.

Diese Frage hat mir lange keine Ruhe gegeben. Vielleicht euch auch? Seht was ich in einem Forum gefunden habe:

Das Ergebnis sieht so aus:

"Ich fürchte, wirklich 'wachsen' wirst Du wohl nicht...mehr als 2 cm werden da wohl nicht drin sein. Es sei denn, Deine Haltung ist wirklich sehr gekrümmt. Yoga kann, wie fauna schon beschrieb, Deine Haltung, Körpergefühl und somit Dein Selbstwertgefühl steigern. Ich kenne einige 'kleine' Yogalehrerinnen, die 'groß' wirken, da sie eine sehr positive Ausstrahlung haben. " schrieb Saraswati.

Of course, yoga can do it. People think Yoga is just a "new-found ability to touch your toes", they are mistaken! The practice of Yoga has a substantial foundation in science and provides all-round benefits to a human being.
Owing to its many positive effects - direct and indirect - on the cardiovascular system, Yoga can play a pivotal role in heart care. Yoga, as defined by Pitanjali, is "restraining extrovert activities of the mind so the self emerges in its own form". It drives a person to self-realization, to awaken latent powers of the body through various asanas (yogic postures) and the mind through meditation and pranayama (breath control). All this results in relaxation of the body and the mind.
