Healing sans medicine
Yogic healing is natural healing without any medication, using the body’s inherent power of healing. The ancient yogis used this method to treat not just the disease but the person as a whole.
Since diseases are caused due to imbalance, yogic healing, a scientific method works by correcting the imbalance in the mind and the body, and restoring the natural rhythm and harmony.
The aim of yoga is to gradually transform the individual in every respect — physical, mental and emotional — and build a sound body and a sound mind.
A sound body is possible only when the mind is free from stress, worry and negative emotions.
The mind has to be disciplined by removing the negative thoughts and bringing in positive thoughts and attitudes. Positive thoughts calm the mind and heal the body, promoting good health while negative thoughts harm the body and mind leading to illness.
Sage Patanjali, the father of yoga, has said that ‘Nothing can be achieved without the purity of mind.’ John Milton an English poet has said that
‘The mind is its own place and in itself, can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven.’
Yogic healing begins by understanding the individual and targeting the cause of the disease – the disease may be due to congenital defects present at birth, improper upbringing, self abuse and neglect, accident, or a combination of these factors.
Healing tools
Asanas, pranayama and meditation are the magic tools of healing.
They are the doorways to self awareness that help integrate mind, body and breath and develop control over the inner environment.
These powerful tools, remove the strain from every cell, repair the damage, heal the pain and relax the body and mind as in sleep.
They calm the nerves, boost oxygenated blood to all organs, create perfect balance among all the systems, and cure and prevent diseases.
One hour of dedicated practise of asanas, pranayama and meditation will relieve fatigue, boost inner energy, uplift the spirit, and make the practitioner happy and contented the rest of the day.
It is essential that one learns these properly from an experienced teacher.
Yogic diet or sattvic diet also plays a huge role in healing.
