Geeta Yoga - Illuminating Lives

Many people find that their mind is their biggest problem; it is restless and they find it difficult to control. The mind is constantly changing moving from one thought to the other, from the present to the past and from one situation to another. Such a mind is an undisciplined mind and can be a source for many problems. The thoughts are so powerful that they are difficult to control and remove from the mind. The negative thoughts germinate and grow and create imbalances in the body and mind.

Many dwell in the past, thinking, brooding and talking about their past experiences, not realizing, it causes disturbance in the mind and body. Old unpleasant thoughts are impurities for the mind; they cause anxiety and negative energies that destroy the inner peace and make your present life also unpleasant.

When the past has passed from your life, why do you carry that baggage with you? This baggage burdens your mind with worries and tensions and destroys your clarity and peace. You experience negative energies such as irritability, anger, confusion, poor perception, disappointment and unhappiness.

Living in the present is being conscious of everything you do now;  you can put in your 100%  effort in the work on hand.  Your mind works clearly and efficiently, you make less mistakes, you appreciate and accept everything around, you have more friends and less problems.

Breath improves awareness
Living in the present is a yogic way of living. It is a fantastic self-discipline which is cultivated through pranayama practice. Pranayama stimulates and enrgises the brain, keeps you alert and make everything go right in your life.  It connects your mind and body, takes you inwards, removes the disturbing thoughts and enhances your energy levels.

There is strong connection between breathing and the mind. If the mind is happy the breath is steady, smooth and relaxed. If the mind is disturbed the breath is also disturbed.

Yoga science teaches that every day is a new day and you live each day with freshness and renewed energy. Keep smiling all the time, look into the positive aspects of everything no matter how stressful or unpleasant they may be. Uplift yourself, to positive thoughts and attitudes and do not let yourself down to sorrow and suffering.

When you live in the present, you are completely aware of all that you are doing and will have full control over the work in hand. There is clarity and calmness in the mind, sharpness of vision, positive thinking and deep sense of peace. There is no negativity and no misunderstanding. You can face the transitions in life with the right energy without confusion, anxiety or fear. There is better understanding, adjustment and sense of achievement.  You will easily find solutions to your problems and will be contented and happy.
