Yoga for Women
by Meghna Virk Bains
There is a famous saying in the Zen religion that ‘no teaching worth a name can give the key through words’. It stands true in the case of yoga, where the whole essence lies in its physical and practical experience. However, I believe that words are the verbal embodiment of power. Herein lies my aim of writing this book to reach out to as many wonderful women out there as possible.
Yoga has brought many phenomenal transformations in my life as a woman. I wish to share this blissful journey with you, hoping to help you rediscover your lost potentials and in the process re-establish the connection with the real you.
This might not be the ultimate piece of work on yoga. Nevertheless, I can assure you that in its ordinary nature of description, you might stumble upon the most extraordinary answers. My earnest request to you is to drop all your pre-conceived notions and apprehensions before you embark upon this journey. Remember, it is never too late to learn how to live as long as you are alive.
About The Author:
My journey began on December 9, 1983 in New Delhi, migrating to Chandigarh a year later. Having completed my school education, I acquired an honours degree in Geography from Delhi University and completed the last lap of education marathon at Punjab University, where I pursued post graduation in the same subject.
It was during the second year of my college that I tried my hand at YOGA. Something that began as a mere vacation time pass, eventually became an all-consuming passion for me. Having practised and extensively learnt ‘hatha yoga’ for 5 years (thanks to my guruji Shiv Malhotra), I was finally ready to broaden my horizons. That was when I decided to share my gift with others. This took the shape of regular yoga sessions exclusively for women that I began two years ago.
My endeavour in the yoga sessions is to help the individuals discover their unique nature, learn their body language and make peace with who they are. This book is to make all those, whom I may not personally come in contact with, to see the vision I believe in. I might not have the ultimate knowledge, but am hoping through this humble attempt to touch as many souls as possible and grow in the process.
Review:
Women always run at the risk of losing themselves in the tide. This is because they are on a constant transitional journey, with roles changing every moment, from daughters and sisters to daughters-in-law and wives to the noblest of them all — that of a mother. They are defined by the roles they fulfill each day in their lives. Yoga is the tool that might make this strenuous journey a smooth sail for each one of you, provided you are ready to make the commitment to yourself.
The author’s endeavour in the yoga session is to help the individual discover their unique nature, learn their body language and make peace with who they are. This book is to make all those, whom she may not personally come in contact with, to see the vision she believes in.
