Yoga for Stability & Mobility - Yogic Body Vedic Mind

Patanjali described the physical practice of yoga as “Sthira Sukha Asana.”, meaning, we should strive to practice yoga with strength and in a relaxed manner.

Sthira translates as strong, steady, and stable.

Sukha means comfortable, happy, and relaxed.

Asana refers to the physical practice of yoga.

Stability plays a vital role in determining whether we feel comfortable. Stability offers security, strength, and skill. Comfort is the state of physical ease which could also be thought of as mobility.

Ability to hold the body steady arises when the muscles are evenly engaged and free of tension and strain; when the breathing becomes rhythmic; and when the mind becomes patient and vigilant, observing whatever arises from moment to moment.
