Yama and Niyama – the foundation of good practice
Yama (control of mind and behavior) and Niyama (psycho-emotional and bodily purity) are the first two stages of yoga and the condition for its effective practice.
By practicing the Pit, we take control of actions in relation to the world. Here are five limitations:
1) Ahimsa – non-violence against anyone and for anything, including in relation to oneself and to the natural order in the world;
2) Satya – a rejection of lies, primarily self-deception;
3) Asteya – rejection of the desire to possess what does not belong to us;
4) Brahmacharya – restraint, refusal to indulge your passions, desires and weaknesses;
5) Aparigraha – refusal to accept gifts and good deeds. Complete self-sufficiency, readiness to always rely only on one’s own strength.
Without self-regulation, one cannot achieve higher states of consciousness. Five rules: Continue reading
Clarity of consciousness: freedom from discontent
Have you ever been unhappy? 😉 Something is contrary to your desires and ideas, and you fall into a certain state in which you experience your disagreement with what is happening in the range from “It’s kind of sad today” to “I’ll tear everyone up, you bastards!”. Perhaps, dissatisfaction with some people seems like a completely normal way of responding to some life troubles – but let us first see: what is really behind this “norm of discontent”. At the root of the word “discontent” is the word “will.” Moreover, in the Russian language the word “will” has two meanings: will as freedom – and will as a power component of a person, as his ability to control himself. Oddly enough, in the concept of “dissatisfaction” both meanings take place and lead, in fact, to a single result. The term “Discontent” means the state of a person who has not reached the basic state of a developed and intelligent being, filled with vital force – to a state of will: he is not-up-free. Moreover, here the word “will” means both freedom – where “I am not up to free” means “I am deprived of freedom of choice” – and the ability to control – where “I am not up to free” also means “I have no will, I’m deprived of the technical ability to do as I want ”- that is, again, deprived of freedom of choice.

How to quickly pump up the buttocks at home?
In principle, there is only one secret and, to be honest, it’s not a secret at all, but an obvious fact. But about him, for some reason, too often forget.
It’s simple: if you want to pump up the buttocks, then download the BUTTERFLY. Neither legs nor back, but buttocks. The most common mistake is to perform the exercise at the expense of other muscles or for other muscles. For example, you decided at all costs to increase the buttocks at home and began to squat with frantic zeal (well, if right). But during training, you feel mainly quadriceps (the front of the thigh) and the next day your legs also hurt most of all. So you train for several weeks … or months … Then you start to squat with dumbbells or some other kind of weight, because everyone knows – to increase the buttocks in volume you need to squat with weight. After some time, you may notice that the quadriceps has noticeably changed, but the “butt” is far from being “as beautiful” as we would like. You might even say that you “rocked” your legs, which you don’t like at all. So you will come to the main question that worries most girls who have ever wanted to perfect the “rear view”: Continue reading
