I have been asked many questions during the long time I have spent as a student and, later, as a yoga teacher (mainly in India) so I thought of writing as many of them as I could remember and the answers I would give today. The questions are not exactly the same as were asked but the meaning is essentially the same.

More DescriptionI have been asked many questions during the long time I have spent as a student and, later, as a yoga teacher (mainly in India) so I thought of writing as many of them as I could remember and the answers I would give today. The questions are not exactly the same as were asked but the meaning is essentially the same. Since these were asked by people from different age groups ranging from my five-year-old granddaughter to people over seventy years of age, the range of questions is very wide. I have also added some questions and answers that I feel will be of interest/use to people interested in yoga.
The answers are primarily based on my own experiences and the information I got from my teachers and the yogis I met so they may not agree with what others say since interpretations of yogic texts are very subjective. Hence, caution is recommended if these are to be used for some kind of research.
N.B. Before attempting any yogic exercise (including pranayama and kriyas), a medical doctor should be consulted and proper precautions taken. Besides, keep in mind that each one is different so if you feel something does not suit you mentally or physically, do not persist with the practice.
