Very apt presentation on application of Yoga in today's world with full of enxities. 👌👌 Yoga practice, shows a holistic path of happiness. I strongly believe that practicing Yoga is a preventive measure. It helps us before we fall in ditch.

One of the better Tedx talks that’s I’ve seen!! So inspired now!! ❤️❤️

Appreciate the professional approach to describing the Ashtanga eight limbed path of yoga and how it correlates to the cognitive therapy. Combining yoga with professional medical guidance to map out and track how exactly one is changing and overcoming their mental imbalances would bring about wonderful, radical change in this world

WOW... I wanted to thank you for your inspiration insight!! I am currently in my last year of counselling and have been practicing yoga initially to heal both a physical injury but also to strengthen my mind.. and like so many surprises in life, I have been gifted with something a whole lot bigger than just a specific outcome. Wholistic... yoga has not just allowed my injured body to realign and heal but something magical has happened and happening beyond my functional neuroplastic brain... my soul connection and strength.. I KNOW this works because I am experiencing a change I have always dreamt of.. after years of counselling, self help books etc. only yoga has allowed me to shift my perspective.. anyway, I'm not going to keep rambling with excitement but I too am on your path... together with others who live this, we can move towards a world where people can become autonomous.. this to me is building a happier world from the inside out!! ✨🙏🏼

"The real purpose for practicing yoga is to realize that I am not this body. I want eternal happiness, complete knowledge, and eternal life-that is the ultimate end of the true yoga system." Hare KRSNA.

Thx India 😍🥰🤩🇮🇳✌️✌️✌️

Yam , niyam , asan , pranayam , pratyahar, dharna , dhyan , samadhi is ashtang yog . Main creator is shri krishna. "योगसाथ कुरुकर्माणि सम व्यक्त्वा धनजय सिद्धे असिद्धि समो भुक्त्वा समत्वम् योग उच्यते " - shrimadbhagvatgeeta ❤. Know and proud of your ancient Indian history and the blessings gifted to humanity.

Yoga has been reduced to "self improvement industry". It's much more than that. The physical exercises and pranayama are just 2 layers out of 8.

Bin doing yoga about 18months now I love it it helps with pain flexibility and camnedss within

Thank you!

been getting into yoga recently (outdoors whilst this belated UK summer lasts!) and enjoyed listening to this analogy. My god does she rock those jeans too

I have had many yoga students tell me how much their practice helps with their mental attitude.

Thank you so very much. ❤️

When you find out one of your friends did a TEDx talk... yes yes yes. I love yoga.

I love ashtanga xx

Love

Is there somewhere we can see the last slide in full? Wondering what the notes on ‘thoughts’ and ‘physical sensations’ were?

Great talk!

excellent video could not agree more!

@spitual (in telegram) audio of Bhagavad Gita in different languages...

👌👌👌👌👌

sarvangasan adhomukhaswanasan prasaritapadasan. hail the lord !

Start listening at 1:25 and thank me later.

Good talk but wish that the video showed the visuals the speaker prepared instead of focusing on the speaker from weird angles. Especially since there were non-english words which helps to connect to a visual even if it is little more than just the word spelled out.

Who can help with accessing the power point slides on the back screen of her presentation, please? They are not shown fully in this video.

👍👍👍👍

Masss❤️

Astanga Yoga is a real technology to unite self with creation. Its side benefits are many incl disease modification, improvement in focus, treatment of various mental and physical disorders

And Yoga guys and gals... You need to thank India... Yog is from India... It is of India...

Great 👍👍

Oh? So it isn't just stretching, there's psychological connection to it. I see. And Christians in favor of yoga just say it is stretching.

I have full respect to this lady..but she became yoga teacher in very less span of time..how?..Here in India to reach that stage it will decades..is she learned full yoga or only physical exercises and breathing exercises..that's doesn't make yoga teacher right?..plz correct me if I'm wrong

Now do you believe...that India is great?

doesn't matter what we focus on? hmmm

Fate of India is learning Yoga from foreigners who don’t know nothing about it...

What is Sorcery?? Controlling (natural/external) spirits through imitating physical actions of the spirit in question (Like storm, rain, etc). With the leap in knowledge that there resides an inner spirit within (human) body(the animus hypothesis), Sorcery was directed towards this inner spirit aka mind and viola it became Yoga!!Subsequently Yoga was given a very broad interpretation that virtually appropriated everything under the sun which is not my focus here.....Where I’m going is Yoga{which Comes from the root Yoke(protoIndoEuropean)=>that (object)which reins in} is using the physical/the material, the body to control the non-material/the nonphysical aka the mind!!! You see we(Indians) were the first Marxists(of sorts)!!! Our tryst with Marxism doesn’t stop there!! Take, for example, Krishna’s grand dictat in Gita “Do your work(action) with no regards to the (fruits of) result “. Here again, the stress is on the work/action!! That is Marxist to the core!! And also the whole Gita is about friction/antagonism in the format of dialogue which is nothing but dialectical!!! Thus the two most dominant themes of our thought are Marxist in nature!!! [I would go even further to quote another ( Indian)ubiquitous adage of ours “Do not seek the roots of a guru or a sage” implying our wonder about the roots/origins of our gurus aka our educators!! This pertains to another very significant Marxist question. Marx wondered“Who will educate the educators??]. Had Marx asked the same question in his younger days it would have been in his characteristic acerbic style, Who would educate these #%*$!? Now, why I thought this (going from physical to nonphysical) aspect of the original (Indian)Yoga as important is, as I briefly noted earlier, that later with the passage of time Yoga was prescribed as a (spiritual) remedy to all our problems, without really addressing the underlying material conditions!!! That’s is escapism of the governing class through this easy and cheap (so called) spiritual remedy!!!

Hinduism is LOVE

Yall couldnt get a indian person to talk about this, like not only are our practices appropriated but white people have become the face of yoga

YOGA! If you do Yoga without spiritual connection. Then it is just a joke . Jai shree krishna🕉️

Matthew 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: Matthew 6:20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

Incredible! Divorcing Yoga from the Hindu religion and pretending to be a "yoga teacher" is a serious mental health issue!

Yoga comes from Indian culture Non Indians do not have the rights to teach yoga

Let's stop whitewashing yoga!

Geeze! Wonder how much she got paid being on TEDX just for providing people with .....ummm...common sense?? GEEZE
