Can anyone suggest some postures for headaches and or migraines ?

In our busy lives we often find excuses and reasons to bypass the important things in life. We can easily loose sight of the priority to maintain our health and mind. When we allow life to happen to us, we get lost in the illusions of the outside world. We are no longer able to help ourselfs or others because we have no concept of stability and being grounded. Taking 5 mins at a time, every morning before our mind sets into the daily routines, will allow for more centeredness and clarity of thinking.

Dear Yoga Enthusiasts,

So I decided to take advantage of the great weather we're having and take my yoga practice outdoors today....new extension on our deck would work wonders for my practice. I wiped down some space (moisture from the night left on the deck), set up my mat, block and strap. My 'babies' ...my dog and cat decided they wanted to join me and share in this glorious morning. So I let my dog out and got Jake, the cat, strapped n to his harness and we all got settled in for a great practice. The sun is shining, birds chirping and all is good in the world....absolutely beautiful.

TWO PARTS OF YOGA BENEFIT

Firstly, bringing the physical body in perfect shape.

Secondly, the muscls become flexible.

Thirdly, the body becomes energetic.

Fourthly, through Yog we are able to improve quality of life, Pranayam enhances the positivity and creativity in life. The negative forces, violence and immoral tendencies will be diminished though the positive and wholesome imapct of yoga. And finally we achieve complete physical, mental and spiritual health by balancing reproductory, excretory,skeletal, respiratory,nervous and endocrinal system

keeping eyes closed helps to increase concentration.
for anyone with backache, heart or BP problem, do not bend forward.
do not lift both legs stright if it is uncomfortable, or if you have back heart or BP problems. you can bend the knees, if necessary.
Donot force any action.
People with hernia should not do Asanas that put pressure on lower part of the body and should not bend backwards.

Be comfortable and relaxed.
Breath control during asanas is very important moving forward - breath moving backward- breath in

dear veiwers

i would like to share the knowledge which can help everyone of us which is one of teh precious part to make in our daily life routine for ourself

wel yog is a complete philosophy of life based on scientific principle and can be used efficiently for - Self Healing and Self Realisation. it brings discipline in life. with yog, we work upon our system rather than our symptoms. Therapeutic use of yog helps in removing toxins from body and nourishing our body with support of right food.
