[ad_1]

Say no to a healthy body and mind. But for this our lifestyle should also be healthy. Right from the time we wake up in the morning, our entire day routine affects our physical and mental health. If the food we eat and the exercise we do contribute to our physical health, then yoga and meditation are of great help to our mental health.

There are many uses of yoga, pranayama and meditation. It helps to keep us active throughout the day. If minor ailments trouble us again and again, then regular yoga and pranayama can save us from such problems. Do you know that yoga and pranayama also help in increasing our memory?

 

It’s not just a routine. There is anecdotal evidence for this. According to a study conducted by Harvard Health, people who do yoga regularly have a thicker cerebral cortex and hippocampus. The cerebral cortex is the information processing part of our brain and the hippocampus is the part that helps with learning and memory. This difference was found when comparing the brains of people who do yoga regularly and those who do not.

Regular practice of some simple yoga asanas and breathing exercises improves our health and improves our processing speed and memory. Let us see which yoga asanas come in handy.
Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana:
This asana is also called hands spread till the toes. It is a standing posture which enhances our body stability, concentration and body balance.
How to do it:
• Begin in Parvat Bhangi or Tadasana.
• Begin focusing on any area directly under the eye. While inhaling keep the weight of the body on the left leg and raise the right knee and touch the right hand.
• Tighten the left hip and open the chest and lengthen the spine as much as possible.
• Inhaling, without changing the length of the spine, stretch the right leg forward.
• Stay in this pose for five breaths. While taking the second breath, bring the leg to the right and hold it for the next five breaths.
• While inhaling bring the leg to the center and while exhaling slowly place the foot on the floor.
• Follow the same process for the other side (left side).

Although this asana is very beneficial, but people with high blood pressure should not do this asana if they experience headache and dizziness while doing it. Similarly, people with knee, ankle, hip and back injuries should also not do it.

Bhramari Pranayama:
The word Bhramari is derived from the Hindi word Bhramari. Bhramar means bee fly. This is the method of breath control. Here it is necessary to make a sound like a bee while exhaling. It reduces mental stress, removes mental fatigue and calms the mind.
This is a very simple pranayama. Sit on the floor, inhale and hold for a few seconds, then exhale making a bee-like sound. If we do this for ten to fifteen minutes, we can immediately notice that the mind is calm and the tension is reduced.
This pranayama is not recommended for pregnant women, menstruating women, people with high blood pressure and chest pain.

Vrikshasana:
As the name suggests, this is a tree pose. Vriksha in Sanskrit means tree and asana means seat. This asana is an asana done while standing like a tree. Its concentration technique is helpful in increasing our balance. It helps in increasing the stability of the foot. If there is pain in the leg or knee, then it is better not to do this asana. Pregnant women can do this asana.
Process:
• Stand on a mountain or Tadasana.
• Raise the right leg and balance on the left leg.
• Bend the right leg from the knee and place it on the inner side of the knee of the left leg.
• Join both the hands together in Namaskar or hold the hands keeping both the hands straight above the chest.
• Take a deep breath and maintain this posture.
• Separate the hands after bringing the arms down to the level of the chest.
• Lower the right leg.
• Do the same for the left leg.
