Join HSS in the 15th Annual Health for Humanity Yogathon
Jan 26, 2022 10:38 AM - It has become a norm these days to grab our smart phones and check social media or weather, or news or texts or all of the above, even before rolling out of bed and getting a caffeinated beverage of one's choice. Time to break this unhealthy habit and join along with Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh USA (HSS) which is now conducting the fifteenth annual "Yoga for Health, Health for Humanity Yogathon" or "Surya Namaskar Yajna" (SNY). This 16-day event began on January 15, 2022, and ends on January 30, 2022. Yoga was developed and practiced over 5,000 years ago by the ancient sages, called Rishis, in Bharat (India) who believed that each part of the body was in some way linked to a certain aspect of the natural world. In particular, the solar plexus called the Manipura Chakra (located behind the navel at the center of the body) is said to be intimately connected to the sun. The state of one's solar plexus is said to be linked to emotions and intuition, which is where the term "gut feeling" originated. The Rishis prescribed the practice of Sun Salutations in order to expand the solar plexus and achieve increased mental clarity, heightened intuition, and a tranquil emotional state. Something that we can all use more of these days. -
