Does Yoga Help With Weight Loss - A Pleasant Surprise

This question when translated into terms of Engagement and Satisfaction is easier to understand.


How is Yoga is Excellent for Weight Loss?


For Beginners who are struggling about weight it is helpful to be more specific about this question. Let’s clarify and simplify a few terms.

The Being: the Self is made of three parts, the Mind, the Body, and the Spirit. The whole that is well is in Well Being.

The Mind: the consciousness and subconsciousness that is one's awareness.

The Body: the physical body, the parts known as the physical body.

The Spirit: the essence of the Being also referred to as the Soul that exists with a Purpose and greater knowledge.

For the beginner Yoga can appear to be something different than what it is designed to do. Yoga is an ancient technique that has stood the test of time because of what it does to uplift and elevate the life of the Being, to uplift the Well Being of Your life.

Yoga and Meditation are linked. Yoga and Meditation connect the Mind Body Spirit. Yoga and Meditation do so differently. Yoga connects the Body with the Spirit & Mind. Meditation connects the Mind with the Spirit & Body in a space for communicating.


How does Yoga help with weight loss?


Yoga increases Well Being by helping the Self becomes aware of energy blocks within the Body.

Well Being and being overweight are two of many states that are results of feelings. In their most basic form Feelings are Energy Information that is processed by the Mind and processed separately by the Body. Yoga is a way of bringing Body signals into the Mind's awareness. Feeling good is natural and is a magnet for more good feelings. When enough good feelings come together this is what is called Well Being. In terms of weight loss, the Body gains blocks from feeling bad that is visible as excess weight on the body. It is not the weight that is the root, it is the feelings. This means that releasing the bad feelings enables the weight to be released. Releasing this negative emotional energy feels liberating and lighter.

But how does emotional energy make me skinnier or look better. When the Self feels good something happens in the Being that changes everything: the habits of the person begin to shift into a positive pattern. This means more good thoughts, more good feelings, and more Self Care. This means more positive choices. All of this positive feels good which like a magnet creates desire or more good feelings and more positive energy.

Yoga & Meditation are two tools that are used for the Body and for the Mind to connect with the Mind-Body-Spirit which is the whole being. Doing Yoga gives you chances to practice going into this good feeling. It gives you a positive mental space to take care of your Self: the Body witnessed by the Mind and the Spirit. Yoga gives you practice existing in this good feeling space. And in this good space there is no overweight, there is no worry, no depression, no anxiety, no can’t do this, or problems with sleep. There is only feeling good and good feelings everywhere.

Going into the Yoga ‘space’ trains the mind to feel good together with the Body and to come into a harmony for you the Being and to enable more Well Being to gather. This is what makes overweight become an experience of the past.


What is Yoga?


Yoga by definition is a set of exercises: breathing, poses, and meditations used to connect the physical Body to the Mind and to the Spirit.

Yoga is a way to connect with your Body and to give it care. Yoga is a way to become aware of and to recognize energy blocks in the Physical Body.

The emotions that lead to the overweight state are re-directed and focused into positive emotions that Yoga naturally encourages that lead to feeling good about the Self and giving your Self Care.

Yoga is Perfect for enhancing Self Confidence

There is probably no one harder on you that you. And you don't need to be. While there are thoughts inside the mind that are negative Yoga is a tool used for many many many years for people to switch around this thinking with real care that leads to progress made with Self Esteem, Self Worth, and building real Self Confidence.

Yoga is perfect for this and leaves you with a sense of peace both during and afterwards. And why is this?

Your Body Mind Spirit does not judge. It is the Ego that judges. The Ego is not part of Yoga. Because the Body Mind Spirit opens during Yoga it allows energy to flow freely throughout the Body- which feels good.

The Secret of Yoga Weight Loss

Feeling good is what leads to the weight loss but not because you are trying to lose weight. It is because you are connecting with your Self and engaging into your Body, your Life, and learning to feel good about Well Being accumulating in your life.

Positivity leads to weight loss and Yoga creates positivity. Yoga leaves you feeling peaceful because the Mind Body Spirit all agree, it feels good.

Gained weight is a type of energy block. This is energy that has been become blocked inside of the Body.

Creating Well Being for yourself is about positive thinking, positive feeling, and positive habits that changes the shape of not just the Body, it changes the shape of the Being.


Changing the shape of the Being is the Well Being answer for you that starts by being aware of how it works.

A Beautiful Life is a lived life. Use Yoga to create more engagement in yours along the path to finding what you are here to do. If you are overweight and asking this question this is a likely sign that you are looking for better and want more for yourself, so Good Job!

Keep moving forwards and let your feelings be your guide. If it feels good do it, if it doesn't feel good push it off until tomorrow :)
