It seems that more and more peopleYoga Questtoday aim for the same ideal: to live longer. Consequently, they practice various sports, eat healthily and try to have a good quality of life. It is, in a certain way, obvious that the two are related one to the other and that in order to live longer we must also live better. But what does "quality of life" mean and why no start with yoga?

Yoga became a popular activity in Western societies and its effects cannot be denied. Its main goal, which is the liberation from worldly suffering, could be attained by practicing a set of techniques that control the body and the mind. For the yogis, the body is a vehicle of experience through senses and a host of mind experiences. The process thus begins by cleansing the body of toxins and impurities that can corrupt the perception of things. The latter enhances the quality of life and once the body is ready, the yogi can begin the real process and the specific techniques.

This Hindu discipline is also regarded as a meditative practice, for there were ascetics in South Asia who first started practicing it in solitude. Once the body cleansed, the yogi begins a series of breathing exercises, which once done properly, give the impression of a lighter body. By careful meditation, the yogi can manage to control his senses, cease all mental activity and thus attain a state of bliss.

Numerous studies and experiments have shown that yoga proves to be beneficial for persons who have suffered from extremely serious diseases, like cancer for example. The results were amazing: most of the people who were part of the study experienced better periods of sleep, a decreased level of anxiety and less stress or fatigue.

If you think it is too late to take up yoga, you are mistaken. There is no limit of age and courses are not physically demanding. Being a means of relaxation and detention, it is a recommended activity for those who have a static life. And if you think Western society lacks a rigorous discipline demanded by this technique, you can choose to spend a certain amount of time in a country where yoga is a national sport and learn with a teacher.
