Know who you are. We all know that yoga has become so popular over the last decade until everybody is talking about it! I even hear my hair dresser raving ho wgood my audio course is. He was raving it in front of other customers!

I was so shy that I did not know what to say.

See, today, almost everyone knows someone who says they are practicing Yoga. Many of these new yogis/yoginis are quite dedicated and go to class several times each week, but none of them truly understand what Yoga is let alone knowing teh danger that it could pose!

Let s take a look at what most teachers are teaching: You attend a class that lasts for 60-90 minutes long doing various Yoga poses/stretches/asanas or whatever you want to call them. They vary from gentle to intense. The intensity will vary from class to class, style to style and teacher to teacher. And so, the student will say they are practicing Yoga regularly every week.

I do not wish to belittle anyone s practice or imply that anyone is claiming to be or do something they are not. Yet, the fact remains that this is not Yoga. To claim that this type of activity represents learning Yoga is similar to someone learning the hand and finger exercises practiced by great pianists and thinking that they are learning to play and indeed, even are playing the piano.

This is not the fault of the student nor even the teacher sometimes as most of the teachers were taught wrongly by their own teachers! Imagine if most of the piano teachers only taught these exercises and called the practice - Piano Class. Why wouldn t the student feel he/she was learning to play the piano? The same goes for Yoga For the same reason you wouldn't go a week without a shower, you shouldn't keep a week's worth of mind clutter stored up in your grey matter.

Knowing that a pound is about 3,500 calories, and assuming you will wash dishes half an hour over 45 days, you will have lost 1 pound without knowing it. To feel fit, be more energetic, be happier and more at peace are only some of the reasons why people choose to practice yoga. There is an old sales and marketing saying which goes like this: "Sell the sizzle, not the steak.
