Frecuency of Practice

Home >> Basic Premises >> Frecuency of Practice

The more you practice the better you will get. In fact, there is no much theory in Yoga as practice.

“Don’t think, just practice” – Pattabhi Jois -

At least a couple classes a week will be needed for the person to feel a difference. Or as I always said “It’s better one than nothing”, but as you grow into the yoga practice a daily practice it’s required.

It is best to practice daily at a fixed time, without fail, following a Yoga routine, or Kriya. On certain days the mind may give justification for not practicing, or may be upset, disturbed or restless. If there is not illness, you should endeavor to do your practice as normal.

“It takes 40 days to establish a habit,

90 days to confirm it.

120 days to master it -everyone will know it” – Yogi Bhajan -

Promote a habit - Do a special yoga set, and/ or meditation for 40 days. Keep a diary of your progress and the changes you go through.

Sadhana, daily practice, it’s best done, 2 ½ hours before the sunrise, it’s called Ambrosial hours, or Amrit Vela, from 4 to 7 o’clock in the morning, another auspicious time to practice is from 4 to 7 in the evening.

At “the Ambrosial Hours” when the sun it’s in a sixty degree angle with the earth, you get the maximum results. And when your world it’s quieter, you can meditate better, it helps the concentration. This is the time we need to be awake to receive the first solar energy of the day.

“Any fool can sleep, but wise it’s that one who rises before sun” – Sahkti Parwha kaur Khalsa

Sadhana it’s your personal, spiritual effort. As you need to take a shower, to clean your body, you need to do Sadhana to clean your mind. To take of your mind before your day starts, so you can pay all your attention to the duties of your life.

“What happens when you don’t shower for a while? –You stink, right?!- The same thing happens with the mind, if you don’t take the time to take care of one of your most valuable gifts, with time will stink too” - Yogi Bhajan
