How to find time for practice<\/span><\/h3>\n

If someone decides as usual to practice \u00abon Monday\u00bb, \u00abserious-ly\u00bb, \u00absome hours a day\u00bb, he\u2019ll stand it 2-3 days, not more. The lifestyle should be changed gradually. Besides even if we do nothing, everyone is \u00abbusy\u00bb all day long. People have no free time, and what is worse, no free energy. That\u2019s why to start practicing, one should ask himself: what can I sacrifice? Let\u2019s start with 10 minutes, we all are very busy, but, if you think, you can always find some 10 minutes for something we can do without, like watching a soap opera or reading a newspaper or talking to your neighbour. You must clearly understand, what you are sacrificing.<\/strong> When you understand what you are sacrificing, time appears from some precise sources, not from nowhere; of course you should sacrifice things you don\u2019t need. If you decide to sleep less, when you body is already not sleeping enough, it will be \u00abmad\u00bb at you. Sacrifice with something you don\u2019t need: a useless conversation, watching TV, drinking alcohol etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

Attitude of others and attitude to others<\/span><\/h3>\n

When someone starts practicing yoga, he can be played two dirty tricks, concerning his closest surrounding. The first trick<\/strong> is to tell immediately everyone that you started practicing yoga. Dispersing the energy of your intention and the one for you spiritual development. \u00abGods like mystery\u00bb, said in ancient time. Your practice will become efficient, if as less people as possible know about it. Demonstrating your belonging to yoga is a pride or shows that your chakras are loose (or both). What is worse, people with whom you share this news are rarely happy about your good starting. It\u2019s easier to be sceptic than altruist. <\/span><\/p>\n

That is what the second dirty trick<\/strong> is about \u2014 people surrounding you don\u2019t accept your practice. It is inevitable not just because of our mentality and the wrong understanding of yoga by average person. People always start spiritual practices with the disapproval of others. This is a manifestation of a principle of environmental resistance<\/strong>, implying that the environment resists a person going up<\/strong>, growing. The same principle is true for social conditions: try to evaluate, how the attitude of others changes, when, for example, you are promoted; it is equally true for the personal growth. The environmental resistance should be overcome \u2014 it is the way the World tries you on your right to raise your status. <\/span><\/p>\n

On the higher level the resistance can be even used to your good, as a source of personal growth. For instance when you do yoga, your family \u00abcomments\u00bb it, irritating you \u2014 try to figure out which energy you don\u2019t accept. Why? Which chakra is not integral? So much work to do. <\/span><\/p>\n

People attract situations that hurt even more their not integral chakras<\/strong> (see the book \u00abTheory and practice of psychological aikido\u00bb).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
