Animal Asanas
by Helena Nelson-ReedFeeling under the weather? Try a simple meditation and asanas from the animal realm.
This is a light piece, inspired by the dogs, cats and birds in my life. Our dogs have taught me much about enjoying life. When I take them to the dog park (several wonderful acres of fenced dog -safe prairie and paths) ears, eyes and tails perk up once we head toward the forest preserve. This has to be the happiest place around. Dogs running, leaping, exploring and fetching. The owners, a full spectrum of race, gender, age, personality, faith, education and class, laugh and chat. No politics or bitching here – the dog’s happiness infects us all. This is THE place to go when you need ajump start of positive energy.

After 25 years as I medical doctor I have some wisdom I would like to share. Put your energy into preventative medicine today. Do Yoga. What is yoga? Perhaps it is not what you think. Empty your mind for a moment. / Take a deep breath. The purpose of yoga is to “calm the fluctuations of the mind”, according to the sage Patanjali, author of The Yoga Sutras. / You may know that yoga means “union”. Union of what? / Union of the individual self with the Cosmic Self. How do we get there? Practice, practice, practice. Yoga is much more than hatha yoga, the asanas (poses) familiar in the yoga studio. In fact, hatha yoga is only one eighth of the eight limbs of yoga taught by Patanjali. / The eight elements of yoga are as follows: 1. The Yamas / Yama here refers to moral conduct. Yama is fulfilled by truthfulness, respecting others, and sharing. 2. Niyamas / Niyama refers to spiritual observances. Niyama prescribes contentment in all circumstances, purity of body-mind, self-discipline, self-study, and devotion. 3. Asanas / Asana means “right posture”, essential for meditiaion. / Asanas are the yoga “poses” familiar to many of us. Asana practice does far beyond healthy posture. This yoga strengthens muscles and bones, massages our organs and promotes cardiovascular conditioning. 4. Pranayama / Prana means life force. Control your prana, control your life force. / This is accomplished by learning special breath techniques like breath of fire and yogic (deep) breathing. 5.Pratyahara / The literal meaning here is withdrawal of the senses from external objects. / This yoga uses means to shut off one or all of the five senses to focus our attention and energy inwards. / Close your eyes. Plug your ears. Withdraw the external stimuli and there is no where else to go but inward! 6. Dharana / Concentration, holding the mind to one thought. 7. Dhyana / Meditation 8. Samadhi / Superconscious experience, nirvana, turiya, the transcendental state, / heaven-on-earth. “Yoga is simply the most powerful system of overall health and well-being I have ever seen.” (from the wonderful book, Yoga As Medicine, by Timothy McCall M.D.). Where to start….borrow a yoga dvd from the library, go to a yoga class. / Just Go. Then experience physical peace, mental peace and spiritual peace. om shanti, shanti, shanti, harrison
