The Hari Om Advantage

Hari Om Yoga advantages

Circulation - oxygen is the source of life for every cell in the body. Blood is what carries oxygen throughout the body, and physical activities like yoga raise the heart rate and increase the circulation of oxygen-rich blood. What makes yoga particularly beneficial is that it also boosts blood circulation to often-neglected areas of the body like joints, connective tissues, and internal organs. At Hari Om Yoga our class variety includes deep stretches, twists, backbends, and muscular contractions which signal the bodyto send blood to those specific areas.

Detoxification - toxins are all around us - in the air, in our food, and in the water - but fortunately, our bodies are designed to naturally eliminate these poisons through the skin, the breath, the blood, and the organs of elimination. At Hari Om Yoga in almost every yoga class, you sweat, you breathe deeply, your heart rate rises (increased circulation), and you massage and stimulate the organs of elimination through twisting and bending postures. For detoxification, a regular Hari Om Yoga practice is extremely effective.

Strength and Flexibility- many of us think that in order to change our bodies, we need to use the latest exercise machine or hire a personal trainer. While some people find results with those methods, almost all persons find results through yoga because the natural, holistic approach at Hari Om Yoga through a variety of postures helps strengthen and lengthen the body's connective tissues through physical postures that have been practiced for thousands of years. It doesn't matter if you are flexible or stiff, weak or strong, yoga can transform your body and mind and improve your overall health.

Stress Relief - the stress and pressure of our daily lives can lead to complications if left unchecked. At Hari Om Yoga, regular yoga practice helps calms the body and mind. at the same time, your yoga practrice assists in boosting the immune system and helps eliminate the toxins that stress creates. During or after a hard days work a yoga class at Hari Om Yoga may be the optimal "cure".

Self Confidence & Self Esteem - An advantage at Hari Om Yoga, aside from making you feel healthy, strong, and limber which in itself can boost your self-image and self-confidence is that by learning yoga postures, you create a sense of pride that will improve the way you feel about yourself both inside the studio as well as out in your daily life.

Breath Control - our breath's quality is related to our mental state. When we are anxious, our breath tends to be fast and shallow. When we are at ease, the breath is usually slow and deep. We don't have to think to breathe, but when we learn to consciously control the breath, it helps us to control the body and mind as well.

At Hari Om Yoga, your yoga practice will be one over time where you will be able to maintain deep, consistent breath throughout your entire practice, regardless of the physical posture you are performing. In this manner, the Hari Om advantage teaches us to control our state of mind, regardless of the daily stresses we encounter.

Weight Loss - by practicing yoga regularly, an additional Hari Om Advantage typically is a feeling of being less hungry which when combined with better food choices when eating can help with weight loss. As part of an overall healthy lifestyle, yoga at Hari Om is a great way to help clean the body, increase your metabolic rate foster waste elimination, and reduce food cravings.

Overall Fitness

An overall advantage of Hari Om Yoga is that we are one of the few physical activities that promotes whole-body wellness - both physically and psychologically - without creating the imbalances that lead to injuries and complications later on in life. Many physical activities that are good for your health also create serious imbalances in the body. Runners are prone to knee and back problems, tennis players often develop arthritis in their wrists and elbows, weight lifters connective tissues soon become tight and rigid, golfers suffer from back and hip tightness . Working at a desk all day or out in the field doing repitive motions are both tiring physically and mentally. Hari Om Yoga can help enhance your inner focus. Yoga at Hari Om can also be a good aerobic workout, but it depends on you and the class you are taking. In order to sustain an elevated heart rate during practice, you will need to maximise your effort into each posture and grow into classes that you find challenging.

Hari Om Yoga offers a broad range of styles that will allow you to challenge yourself - as we sometimes say "be where you are and realize fulfillment from life"
