The history of yoga began about four thousand years.backwards The first written references to it are in the Rigveda. Indian guru Swami Sivananda (1887 - 1963) was born in the south of India in the state of Tamil Nadu. He was originally a surgeon. But once he cured a wandering monk who began to teach him yoga. After that, the doctor went to North India and in the city of Rishikene (in the world capital of yoga) found a teacher and mentor. For ten years he had achieved spiritual enlightenment, and all the time his disciples went to him.
Why do people do yoga

System Features
See what Swami Sivananda developed. Yoga involves five steps:
- exercises (to everyone within the limits of him available);
- proper breathing;
- the ability to relax;
- diet;
- positive, approving thinking.
Shivananda yoga focuses all exercises onspinal strengthening. This is its feature. This is so important because the spinal cord is located there. It contains the centers of the nervous system, which during exercise are actively supplied with blood that carries food and oxygen. This effect persists until the next day, when renewal and rejuvenation of the central nervous system occurs again. Asanas also massage internal organs, the result is their effective work. This all happens not immediately, but a positive result, a craving for classes and a good mood will come in two or three weeks.
Breathing during exercise

Food
Sivananda Yoga is more rigorous on this issue.than accepted in the West. It is assumed that the person will be a vegetarian. Immediately they become difficult. But what is interesting is that when a person has been practicing yoga for a long time, about a year, then he simply does not want to eat meat products, the body refuses them. This is how the non-violent transformation of a person into a vegetarian takes place. This idea of non-violence permeates all the components of yoga.
Yoga philosophy
