Depends on which asanas you choose to do.  Headstands before bedtime are not a good idea because they energize.  Same with back bends. "Light on Yoga,"by B.K.S. Iyengar is the bible of asanas.  It takes many poses and explains the effects and how to do them properly. I would never reccommend doing yoga without the assistance of a teacher. You will benefit much more, and you won’t be likely to hurt yourself.  Yoga can be very powerful stuff. Good Luck!

Can anyone please enlighten me ? novice yoga learner Yes, there are various forms of Yoga or the spiritual disciplines of Hinduism. For example: Karma Yoga (ethics) Bhakti Yoga (devotion) Hatha Yoga (postures) Raja Yoga (meditation) Jnana Yoga (outer and inner study). http://www.classicalyoga.org will give you some genuine information about what is Yoga.

Response:

        Learning on your own is a more challenging way, you are your own teacher. If you treat you student gently and with loving concern there is a lot you can learn. In time you may want to visit another teacher.         Since you are learning yoga to help deal with insomnia and indigestion and you are learning from books I suggest reading two. Relax and Renew by Judith Lasater, and The Heart Of Yoga by Desikachar. They will help you understand that yoga practice can be focused in many different ways. peace, sandra

  As for insomnia and relaxation, meditation and breathing exercise may be all you need. So, as for instructions, here you are:   At The Third Circle Web Site there is a free online meditations manual, located at the following URL addresses: www.geocities.com/Athens/Acropolis/5715/   (Main Site) members.iol.co.il/weagle/                  (Israeli Site)                                    —   This manual contains twelve very easy and simple, yet quite powerful meditations, or exercises, or means, or aids, or signposts to any spiritual quest and journey. These twelve meditations are included in The Third Circle (TTC), which is an opening to all-that-is and up to infinity.   As simple as they are, each one of these twelve exercises may facilitate and aid progress at any spiritual stand, from the first steps of interest and curiosity about the spiritual, or an attraction to it, and up to achieving the ultimate, supreme, attainment — Self-realization, or enlightenment.   All the meditations and exercises mentioned in this manual may be practiced by self-work, that is — by following the instructions given here. All the necessary information needed to enable practicing these meditations and exercises is included in the given instructions — there is no need for any external teacher, or guide, in order to be able to practice these meditations. Nevertheless, I’m available to reply by email any question concerning the practice of these meditations that may arise.                                    *** A brief introduction to the twelve meditations: * Relaxation:   A very basic and simple relaxation exercise, yet, quite an effective one. Good to be practiced whenever one may be tensed, and at the beginning of every meditation.                                    — * Praying / asking:   Experience shows praying or asking to be very useful and helpful. Believing in God or not, practicing a particular religion or not, doesn’t make much difference here.   TTC is not a religion, not a part of any religion and it is not connected to any religion. Praying is very useful and helpful, regardless whether praying, or asking — God, or the universe — is done in a religious context or not. Here, in TTC, there is no religious context to praying; that is, praying doesn’t mean practicing a religion — not necessarily.   What counts here is our attitude and behavior, not any dogma or set rules. Yet, it is the individual’s choice whether to pray in a religious context or not. In our experience, praying, or asking, is very useful, regardless to whether it’s being done in a religious context or not. TTC, in the context of prayer, have no recommendation pro or con any religion.   One of the reasons that praying or asking is very helpful is that by praying or asking we direct our attention away from our small self, or ego, to a higher ideal. It serves us in widening our perspective, expanding our boundaries.   Another reason for it being beneficial is that by praying or asking we direct our attention to the desired results and goals. Directing our attention serves the flow of energy to and from the desired result or attainment. This energy flow assists in the actual attainment of our goals.                                    — * Shielding:   It is an energetic and astral grounding and shielding. Good to be practiced in any case, especially when we may feel being attacked, or drained energetically. It is a suggested protection for meditations, aiding in blocking unwanted energies and entities from entering our meditations.   Please bear in mind that in the relative universe nothing is absolute, thus — there is no absolute protection and no absolute shielding. Ultimately, one’s free will and choices are the best possible protection — over time. Nevertheless, this shielding exercise is a recommended practice.   Some choose to practice it as a part of their daily routine, some choose to practice it as the first stage of every meditation, some choose to practice it when feeling a need, and some choose not to practice it at all. It’s up to you.                                    — * Simple Breathing Exercise (Pranayama):   Prana is the Sanskrit word for the universal life force — the force that sustains life in all living creatures. In Chinese, this universal life force is called Ki, or Chi, hence, Tai-Chi.   Pranayama – Yogi breathing exercises – is one of the eight limbs of Yoga – for the value and benefit of Pranayama is paramount. It is extremely relaxing, invigorating — it purifies the body, mind, soul and spirit.   This Simple Breathing Exercise (Pranayama) is indeed very simple and easy to practice, yet, it is highly valuable. This simple Pranayama may be practiced by itself and it may serve as an excellent preamble to any meditation and spiritual exercise.                                    — * Body-Feeling Meditation:   At times, if you may feel very tired, moody, tensed, agitated, low energies, irritated, impatient, drained out, spaced out, disconnected, the mind is not very clear, etc — it is recommended to elevate your feeling, mood or energies with the Body-Feeling Meditation.   This meditation is very effective in releasing stress and strain from our nervous system and physical body. By releasing stress and strain from the physical body and nervous system, simultaneously we are releasing mental, psychological and spiritual stress and blocks, opening our energy channels to a better flow, enabling a clearer mind and consciousness.   Another benefit of this meditation is increasing our awareness to our body.   This meditation can be practiced, upon getting acquainted with it, anytime anyplace, while walking, talking, driving etc.                                    — * The Silence Meditation:   The Silence Meditation, along The Aum Mantra Meditation, are the Jewel-Crest of all spiritual practices. Specifying all their benefits will take many pages.   In brief: they are the most effective and direct means to connect the unbounded ocean of truth and wisdom lying inside the silent chambers of our hearts. They are great aids in connecting our Higher Self and, ultimately, our Supreme Self.   This meditation is relaxing and have numerous beneficial effects on our body and mind, health, consciousness, clarity of thinking, energy level, developing our intuition, widening our perspective and expanding our boundaries.   The Silence Meditation may serve as a springboard to all other spiritual practices and exercises. It is very natural, very easy to practice. It is devoid of any connection to any teaching, tradition, dogma or religion. TTC is an opening, not a teaching.   Connecting the ocean of silence inside gives momentum to all our actions, facilitates and speeds up attaining all goals.   Ultimately, The Silence Meditation is a great aid in attaining Self-realization, or enlightenment — upon aspiring this supreme attainment.                                    — * The Aum Mantra Meditation:   The Aum Mantra Meditation, along The Silence Meditation, are the Jewel-Crest of all spiritual practices. Specifying all their benefits will take many pages.   In brief: they are the most effective and direct means to connect the unbounded ocean of truth and wisdom lying inside the silent chambers of our hearts.

It is very natural, very easy to practice. It is not conflicting with any teaching, tradition, dogma or religion.   Connecting the Supreme Self, or the ocean of inner silence, gives momentum to all our actions, facilitates and speeds up attaining all goals.   Ultimately, The Aum Mantra Meditation is a great aid in attaining Self-realization, or enlightenment — upon aspiring this supreme attainment.                                    — * Healing The Inner Child   Some people don’t get in childhood all the love they deserve and need. At times, children are being wounded emotionally. As we grow and mature, often we carry with us the scars born of the emotional wounds we acquired as little children. Thus, as we go on in life, we often carry with us a hurt and wounded child. Those emotional scars within us, this wounded child in us, affects our psychological makeup as long as the scars and wounds are there. Healing The Inner Child enables us to gain greater emotional and psychological maturity.   The view presented by The Third Circle holds that spiritual growth and human growth are the very same process. Growing as a human being means growing spiritually and true spiritual growth means growing as a human being. Thus, Healing The Inner Child has great value in both our human growth and spiritual evolution.   This is a very simple, yet, extremely powerful exercise, based on guided imagery. It is healing of very deep layers of our psyche, which may remain healed for as long as we live. Healing the inner child may increase your love to yourself and thus increase your love to others — your ability to genuinely … read more »
