Yoga For Obesity

Obesity And Old Age (Keep Away Obesity And Old Age With The Help Of Yoga)

Modern era is facing the menace of a dreadful disease called obesity which is not only a social stigma but can lead to wide array of other health related disorders like diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disorders, osteoarthritis, hernia etc. Various treatment-approaches which include dietary intervention, exercise therapy, medication and surgeries are not able to tackle if successfully and without side effects.

Vivekananda Yoga Anusandhana Samsthana has developed an Integrated yoga therapy module for obesity which is combination of wide varieties of Asanas, Pranayama, Meditation techniques to fight this problem. These techniques have been identified over a period of thirty years while treating patients ranging from overweight to morbid obesity for which research evidence is available.

This book gives an introduction about understanding of obesity according to modem science, role of stress in obesity, understanding of exercise and behavioural modification. Finally it talks about Integrated Approach of yoga Therapy (IAYT) with details for patients with obesity.

During the last ten years many obese people come to me for help. When they changed their food habits according to my instructions and started taking enema, hip bath and spine bath they benefited greatly. That is why I decided to write this book 'Obesity ad Old Age' which is based on my experiments and experience.

This book provides you with the knowledge of remaining free of both obesity and old age. Everything, changing food-habits, enema, hip bath and spine bath have been elaborately explained along with thirty Asans, three Pranayams, Agnisar Kriya and Uddiyan Bandh.

I want to emphasise that Yog is not a different of diseases, it is a way of life which will help you to change your food-habits, control your desires and also your temperament. Along with this the practise of asans will help you to keep away from obesity and old age and also get rid of them.

I am very hopeful that this book will prove to be of great help to all.

With all good wishes for your health and happiness.

About the Author

The author of this book Shri Rameshwar Das Gupta was born in Narela on the 16th of April 1923. He came into close contact of Acharya Bhagwan Dev (Now known as Omanand Saraswatiji Maharaj) at the tender age of eleven. He stared to practice Yog under his guidance and was also interested in the welfare of society.

In the beginning Shri Gupta did some asans like 'Padm Asan', 'Baddha-Padm Asan', 'Chakr Asan', 'Shirsh Asan', 'Tad Asan', etc. and later on practised meditation.

One day while meditating he felt although he was being lifted up into the air where he experience a great bliss in roaming around beautiful gardens.

In 1936-37 he started business. For 40 years he was continuously in business and discharging his family obligations. But throughout he maintained strict discipline regarding his life-style and food-habits along with that he kept up his practice of 'Yogasans.

After 1973 the responsibility of business lessened which gave him more time for the practice of Yog. He now started to spend three to four hours everyday for 'Yog-Sadhana'.

In 1980 he wrote 'Yog Rashmi' and then as he went on perfecting the practice of Yog he wrote five more books namely 'Yog Chetna', Yog Pravesh', Yog Jiwan', 'Dainik Yog' and Motapa Aur Budhapa. On demand of many readers all these books were published in English also 'Yog Rashmi' was translated into Marathi and Urdu as well.

This undertaking was taken up by the author for the physical and mental well-being of humanity. Just as the elements of sunlight air and water do not differentiate between human beings so do these books which are meant for every irrespective of caste, creed or religion, age or sex.

The writer wishes that the books should help everyone.
