Bikram, the "hot yoga" program, has been heating up the yoga world lately, and its founder probably has something to do with it: The outspoken, dramatic, and always controversial Bikram Choudhury has garnered a lot of attention with his version of hatha yoga that some yogis think unorthodox: In his classes, students are stuck in a room heated to at least 105 degrees doing a structured program of 26 asanas with a sergeant–like instructor––and they love it. Bikram Yoga will emulate that same energy. With his take–no–prisoners philosophy, Bikram describes how the program can reap great medical, physical, and spiritual benefits––the poses work out every part of the body, all of which can help alleviate many common ailments, from asthma to back pain. (Photographs will accompany each pose.) In addition, the book offers the best ways to incorporate eastern philosophy into a western lifestyle and tips on how yoga can cultivate "a union between body and spirit." Simply put, you don't have to meditate passively to reap the benefits of yoga.

Hot Yoga is based on Bikram Yoga. Bikram yoga is a system offering a series of 26 postures, designed to restore vitality, heal, and help prevent a range of common chronic ailments. It differs from traditional yoga, as it performed in a heated room, equipped with mirrors - hence the name hot yoga (which Bikram himself does not use). The room is heated to at least 100F (38C). The postures are easy to learn, and can be approached from any level of strength and flexibility. The theory is that when the body is cold it is difficult to move. Warmed up muscles make the body more pliable, so that you can achieve a deeper stretch. The heat also helps to flush out toxins and impurities. 'Stretching in the heat is actually very comfortable and I sensed my body opening up in a way it simply can't do at lower temperatures…In short, I am addicted.' Evening Standard, February 2000

Keeping the body in shape becomes a necessity in the modern period. Vigorous exercises are not only performed for aesthetic purposes, but also for the physical health. If a person has a well-maintained figure, he has lower risks for a declining condition. It is not actually difficult to find time for weekly exercises. A good mindset is the key towards reaching your goal successfully. Among the existing forms of psychomotor movements, yoga is the simplest and most efficient. By merely sitting on a mat, people can perform the intended activities. Even at home, one can enjoy the benefits of yoga. Both the mind and body are touched by executing the movements. The performer has to stretch his body and observe proper breathing. At the end of the day, you will find yourself relaxed and energized for the succeeding days.

If you think that you need improvement in concentration and physical well-being, yoga is the perfect solution for you. Be one of the active yoga members and feel the excitement on a regular basis.
