Control the Senses through Yoga !

Yesterday I was reading a book by Osho on Yoga. I loved the book in and out and I thought I will share some bits of it on my blog. As a student, I always had an inclination to learn Yogic philosophy. I was well aware of the general principle that a yogic mind is one where there is no flow of thoughts. During meditation this is what we try to achieve, 'a mind which is free of thoughts'. Many a times I have wondered where are the thoughts coming from? Where do they originate? Where do they go? etc etc In the book, it is mentioned that, we have thoughts all around us.

Here I am discussing simple ways to tackle neck pain that arises due to over- straining the neck. These days neck pain due to strain is considered to be more of a lifestyle disorder. Neck pain due to straining usually occurs due to nerve compression or muscular tightness resulting from repetitive occupational motion, incorrect posture, sitting for long hours in front of the computer, low desk height, etc. Most often this pain is not only confined to the neck but to the shoulders and arms also. The following are the simple ways to tackle neck pain due to straining. Rest. Give your neck enough rest by taking a short while to lie down or walk between work. Say no to pillows. Pillows should not be used while sleeping even if it is a modern ''medicated neck pillow'' available in the market these days. Change the chair .A chair which has a low back and no armrests can not only strain your neck but also your upper back. You must use a chair with a high back and good a...
