Kua rongo pea koe i te kupu 'Yoga' i tētahi wāhi, tika? Tērā pea kei te mahi tētahi o ō hoa i tēnei, kua kite rānei koe i tēnei i runga i te pouaka whakaata, i te Ipurangi rānei. He tokomaha e whakaaro ana he mahi whakakori tinana noa iho te yoga. Engari he hohonu ake te yoga i tērā. Kia mōhio tātou ki ētahi atu kōrero mō tēnei i tēnei rā, āe?

He aha te Yoga?

Whakaarohia, ehara tēnei yoga i te mea i puta inanahi. Neke atu i te 3000 tau te pakeke , ā, i tīmata i Īnia. Ko te kupu 'Yoga' i ahu mai i te kupu 'Sanskrit', he reo tawhito nō Īnia. Ko tōna tikanga 'ki te whakakotahi', 'ki te hono', 'ki te whakauru rānei'. He aha te mea e whakakotahi ai tēnei? Tō tātou hinengaro, tō tātou tinana me te wairuatanga . Ki te kī māmā noa, ko te Yoga he whakakotahi i ngā mea e toru.

He korikori tinana noa iho rānei te Yoga?

He whakaaro hē noa iho tēnei i waenga i te tini tāngata, arā, he mahi whakakori tinana noa iho te Yoga. He pono, he mahi whakakori tinana kei roto i te Yoga. Engari kotahi noa iho tēnei wāhanga o te Yoga. He whānui ake te Yoga i tērā. He mea nui anō hoki mō te taurite o te oranga . Ko te whakangungu i tō hinengaro, te whakangungu i tō tinana, te whakahaere i tō manawa – ko ēnei katoa, tae atu ki te hono atu ki tō wairuatanga, koia ngā whāinga matua o te momo noho Yoga. Hei whakamārama, ko te Yoga he tikanga e hono ana i tō tātou hinengaro, tō tātou tinana, me tō tātou manawa, ā, e homai ana ki a tātou he māramatanga pai ake mō tātou anō.

Whakaarohia, e hia ngā mea e whaia ana e tātou i te roanga o te rā? Ngā mahi tari, ngā mahi whare, ngā mahi tamariki... Nā ēnei mea katoa, kāore ō tātou hinengaro i te wāhi kotahi. Kāore hoki ō tātou tinana i te okioki tika. Mā te yoga tātou e kawe mai i ēnei mea marara ki te wāhi kotahi. He rite ki te here i ētahi pīrere marara ki runga i te aho.

Kia kōrero tātou mō te Hatha Yoga me ngā Asana.

Ko te taha tinana o te momo noho yoga ko tā tātou e kī nei ko te 'Hatha Yoga'. Ko ngā 'Asana' , arā, ngā momo tū yoga e kitea ana e tātou, nō tēnei Hatha Yoga. I ētahi wā, he momo yoga e kīia nei ko te 'Hatha Yoga'. He momo yoga ngāwari ake te mahi, engari he nui ake te aro ki te whakatikatika me te manawa .

He momo 'Asana' rerekē. Ko ētahi e tū ana, ko ētahi e noho ana, ko ētahi e takoto ana i runga i te papa. Ko te kaupapa o ia asana he whakakorikori i ngā wāhanga rerekē o te tinana, me te arotahi hoki i te hinengaro ki reira. Hei tauira, ko ētahi asana he pai mō tō tātou tuara, ko ētahi he kaha ki ō tātou waewae me ō tātou ringa.

He aha ngā painga o te yoga mō ō tātou tinana me ō tātou hinengaro?

Āe, kia tirohia ngā painga ka puta mai i tēnei mahi yoga. Ehara tēnei i te 'auaha' noa iho, engari he mea tino whai hua mō tō hauora.

Ngā painga ā-tinana:

• Ka piki ake te ngāwari : Kua kite pea koe i te ataahua o te piko o te tinana o te hunga e mahi yoga ana. Kāore e puta i te pō kotahi. I a koe e mahi ana, ka iti ake te pakari o tō tinana, ka ngāwari ake. Ka tino heke te pakari o tō tinana ina ara ake koe i te ata.
• Te kaha o te uaua: Tērā ētahi tū yoga (Asana) e whakapakari ana i ngā uaua mā te whakamahi i tō ake taumaha tinana. He rite tēnei ki ētahi atu mahi whakakori tinana e amo ana i te taumaha, engari he ngawari ake.
• Ka whakapai ake i te taurite: Ko te yoga he tū i runga i te waewae kotahi, i roto rānei i ngā tū uaua. Ka tino whakapai ake tēnei i tō taurite. Ka taea hoki e ia te whakaiti i te tūponotanga o te hinga i a koe e pakeke haere ana.
• Ka whakaitihia te mamae o te tuara me te kaki: He mea noa ki te hunga e noho ana i te tūranga kotahi mō te wā roa te mamae o te tuara me te kaki. Ka totoro , ka whakapakari hoki te yoga i ēnei uaua, ka tino whakaora i taua mamae.
• Ka pai ake te manawa: He nui te aro o te yoga ki te manawa. Ina mahi tika koe i te manawa, ka whiwhi ō pukahukahu i te nui o te hāora. He pai tēnei mō te tinana katoa.
• Ka pai ake te rere o te toto : Ka pai ake hoki te rere o te toto i roto i te tinana mā ngā tū yoga (Asana) me ngā tauira manawa.

Ngā painga hinengaro:

• Whakaiti i te ahotea : Ki taku whakaaro koinei te take matua e tahuri ai te tini o te tangata ki te yoga. Kei roto i te yoga ngā mahi manawa, e kiia ana ko te 'Pranayama', me ngā tikanga whakaaroaro hei āwhina i te whakamarie i te hinengaro. He huarahi pai tēnei hei whakaiti i te ahotea e hangai ana puta noa i te rā.

Whakaarohia, ka hoki mai koe ki te kāinga me te ngenge i muri i te mahi i te rā katoa. Kī tonu tōu mahunga i ngā pātai. Ki te mahi koe i te yoga mō te 15 meneti pea, ka tino mārie koe.

• Ka piki ake te arotahi: I a koe e arotahi ana ki ia tū, me te aro ki tō manawa, ka ako koe ki te pupuri i tō hinengaro kia arotahi. He tino whai hua hoki tēnei mō ō mahi o ia rā.
• Ka tutuki te marino me te māramatanga hinengaro:Ina mahi tonu koe i te yoga, ka iti ake te oho o tō hinengaro, ā, ka marino ake. Mā tēnei hinengaro mārama koe e āwhina ki te aro atu ki ngā raruraru me te whakatau kaupapa.
• Moe pai ake: He uaua ki ētahi tāngata te moe. Ka whakamarie te yoga i te hinengaro, ā, ka āwhina i a rātou kia moe pai i te pō.
• Ka whakanui ake i te mōhio ki a koe anō: Mā te yoga koe e āwhina ki te mārama ake ki tō tinana me tō hinengaro. Ka mārama koe ki ngā mea e hiahiatia ana e tō tinana me te mahi a tō hinengaro.

Ngā mea hei mōhio māu i mua i te tīmatanga o te yoga

Ki te mea kei te whakaaro koe ki te tīmata i te yoga, he mea pai kia maumahara koe ki ēnei mea.

• Kōrero ki tō tākuta: Mena he āhuatanga hauora motuhake tōu (hei tauira, te toto toto tiketike , te mate manawa , ngā raruraru tuaiwi), he pai ake te kōrero ki tō tākuta me te tiki tohutohu i mua i te tīmatanga o te yoga. Kātahi ka taea e koe te mahi yoga i te huarahi e pai ana ki a koe.
• Kimihia he kaiako pai: Ehara te yoga i te mea ka taea noa te ako mai i te pukapuka, inā koa i te tīmatanga. He mea nui kia tīmata me te kaiako mohio, pai. Kātahi ka taea e ia te whakarite kei te tika tō mahi i ngā tū (Asana) me pēhea hoki te karo i ngā whara.
• Whakarongo ki tō tinana: Ehara te yoga i te whakataetae. Tērā pea kāore e taea e koe te mahi i te mea kotahi me te katoa i tēnei wā tonu. Kāore he aha. Me mahi te mea e tika ana mō tō tinana, te mea e tika ana mōu. Kaua e akiaki i a koe ki te mahi i tētahi tūnga mēnā ka mamae.
• Kōwhiria ngā kākahu tika: Kia pai te kakahu, kia totoro hoki, kia taea ai e koe te neke haere noa.
• Me mahi i te iti rawa i te rua hāora i muri i te kai: He uaua ki te mahi i te yoga i runga i te puku kī tonu. Nō reira, me mahi i te yoga i te iti rawa i te rua hāora i muri i te kai.
• Kia manawanui: Kaua e tumanako ki tētahi panonitanga nui i roto i te rā kotahi, i te wiki rānei. He haerenga roa te yoga. Mā te mahi mārire noa iho ka tīmata koe ki te rongo i ōna painga tūturu. Ko te mea nui ko te haere tonu me te kore e mutu (te pumau).
• He rerekē ngā momo yoga: Haunga te Hatha Yoga, kei reira anō te Vinyasa Yoga, te Ashtanga Yoga, me te Iyengar Yoga. Ka kitea e koe te momo e pai ana ki a koe. Ko ētahi he tere, ko ētahi he puhoi.
