Everyday, more and more people in the west are discovering the benefits of the Eastern breathing, meditating and stretching exercises called yoga. Now, I find it highly unlikely that someone from Asia came to America to spread the gospel of yoga to those who would care to listen here in the United States, but rather (and I don’t think anyone knows for sure how the practice came to the U.S.) it seems more likely that a westerner, wandering through the beautiful lands of the eastern hemisphere, came upon it one way or another and brought back with them the sacred knowledge of having complete, conscience control of the human body through breathing and stretching exercises.
In recent years, however, websites such as youtube.com, have provided a digital canvas for which the carriers of this knowledge can showcase what they have learned with anyone willing to listen and participate. YouTube, for example, allows the yoga instructor to create home videos up to about ten minutes long to share that glorious wisdom they behold and load them to the Internet for all inquiring minds to view. Some of these instructors, because there are now so many versions and styles of yoga, post videos daily, weekly, monthly and have attracted quite a following.
The only four things you need to access these video tutorials on how to radically improve your mental and physical health are a computer, high-speed Internet, an open mind, and, you guessed it, a functioning human body. Now, if you live in a metropolitan area, chances are you can spit and hit a yoga studio right next to one of the fifty Starbucks and McDonald’s which are equipped with free WIFI. Also, you can choose to either pay the yoga instructor’s exuberant fee for the use of their facility or you can get the exact same, possibly higher quality instruction, from the free video tutorials via the free Internet connection you can pick up in town.
Luckily, the rural areas of America haven’t been left out of the holistic healing which yoga can provide, thanks to High-Speed Satellite providers (Wildblue & Hughesnet) that once were outrageously priced, but now with the aid of mybluedish.com ( a smaller organization with a big heart for their customers) are affordable to all classes of people. The part-time waitress and single mother to the unhappily married millionaire couple with maids and personal trainers, no matter how you slice it, can have physical and mental health, which are no doubt priceless items if you value life and all of its magnificence. Which means if you wait until you have a serious health problem, YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY for the instant gratification Western medicine provides. But, if you nip it in the bud by practicing techniques that have been proven to promote long and healthy, stress- free lives for thousands of years, you can eliminate most of your serious health issues before they start and enjoy, to the fullest, what little time we have on this Earth.
So , final summation, get some high-speed Internet, either from mybluedish.com, for those of you in rural areas, or take your pick of Internet providers in the metro areas of our great nation. Google ‘free yoga instruction” and practice what you find and learn, if nothing else, during the time you’d usually delegate towards self indulgence, and focus more on self improvement.
