Yoga and Total Health — November 2017

(nextflipdebug5) #1
Nature provides us with pleasure,
pain, enthusiasm and disgust in a
regular cyclic manner. We may not
notice it. One thing follows the other.
If we are very enthusiastic and happy,
a little later a time will come when we
are disinterested and unhappy. While
that cycle is on we can benefit from
it. In an enthusiastic state one can put
in more work; one can enjoy things
better; one can improve relationships.

We easily get swept away also. We get
very enthusiastic, very happy, feel on
the top of the world, and then suddenly

we crash down and see everything in a
negative way. This is a natural capacity
and a natural phenomenon and it does
happen. If we understand it then we
can manage it better.

The entire body also requires
moments when it can function at its
best. The circulation and the nervous
impulses are able to function better
when we are in a positive state. We
should experience it and function.
Sometimes we neglect it, curb it,
ignore it. Sometimes we begin
the day with a negative thought.
