Ram YogaSutra

Wouldn’t it be funny if suddenly everyone who goes to your yoga classes started showing up dressed as Star Wars characters? I mean, that would shoot a laugh and giggle through the day like nothing else. I can’t help but feel a little sorry for R2-D2 however. That guy has to feel so out of place in one of these classes. That little thing is quite limited to what yoga positions he can bust out. Well, at least something good might come out of all this, maybe they could all just be friends once and for all. But wait! That would mean the end of all good things called Star Wars, wouldn’t it? I take that back! Oh, and of course you can purchase these fine yoga posters over at Rob Osborne’s Etsy page.

Experts hail it as the simple and non-surgical way to turn back the clock

Next time, delay that appointment at the wellness centre for chemicals or dangerous injectables that aim to turn back the clock. The latest technique to get rid of your wrinkles is simple and non-invasive and well, you can pull faces while doing it. Called face yoga, the set of facial exercises has caught the fancy of Hollywood celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Aniston, who are said to be advocates of it. Here’s how you can get glowing with pulling a few faces...

After three years of intense practice and a month of training at the ashram, I started the actual process of teaching at Eden Woods a residential complex at Thane a satellite city of Mumbai.

At the end of an year of teaching the journey has been amazing. All the training embedded into the system made me realize the importance of close observation and monitoring of each student. The fact that the age group at one point was as varied as 8 to 80, and with various medical conditions made the experience even more expansive.

However the most fulfilling experience is the gradual progress being made by the students, most of whom are enthusiastic to stretch,twist or bend. Experiencing the change, mentally emotionally and physically is very evident in almost all students and is a most gratifying experience and dear to me as a teacher.

This experience has now given me an opportunity of training and in a way healing students with some extreme difficult medical conditions. I now look forward to this amazing journey into my second year of teaching.
