The yoga prac ce of mindfulness increases awareness of the body and its responses. That awareness is good for your diet. When you are
aware that you grab a snack for quick energy when you're red, you can decide to get more sleep. When you
remember the heavy feeling from an order of fries or the espresso buzz that keeps you from sleep, you can make healthier choices. Yoga poses that enhance mindfulness and relaxa on might include U anasana, a standing forward bend in which the head and torso fold down as close to the front of the legs as possible, with the finger ps beside the feet or the palms flat on the floor by the ankles. U anasana helps to reduce fa gue, anxiety and stress. Savasana, or Corpse pose, is a long relaxed stretch with
your back on the mat, legs extended and arms down along the sides. In Savasana, you are as close to sleep as you can get while s ll fully awake. Yoga and Weight Loss has reported on several studies that confirm the links between weight loss and yoga. Yoga creates long, lean muscles. That's good news for looking and feeling fit on a diet. But the best news is that the muscle keeps on working for you even when you're not working it. Muscle burns fat whether it is engaged or at rest. The higher the propor on of muscle ssue you have, the more fat you burn. The strengthening and lengthening aspects of evening yoga prac ce help you to lose weight while you sleep.

Yoga is not a recent phenomenon. It is an ancient Indian prac ce which is associated not just with the physical well-being of the body but with the overall health of a human being. I see yoga as a holis c package, which unlike other physical ac vi es aims at cleansing and rejuvena ng the human body from outside as well as within. If one adopts the prac ce as a part of everyday rou ne, one can actually feel the difference - mentally, physically as well spiritually. And as an added bonus, it can bring about weight loss too.With the growing trend of people ge ng more cau ous of their
expanding waistlines and increased instances of metabolic disorders - cancer, diabetes and others - there has been a sudden upsurge in people priori sing their health and resor ng to tailor-made diet plans and fitness regimes.For the longest me in my life, I was of the opinion that yoga involves a set of exercises where holding certain postures for a few seconds was the main objec ve. I used to think of it as a regime meant for those who were already fit but were keen on building their flexibility. I could somehow never relate it to being an effec ve tool for weight loss as compared to the high intensive workout sessions in the gyms. It took me quite some
me to understand the mechanism of different asanas and their efficacy but I must tell you, the understanding of it was enlightening, affirma ve and oh, so gra fying!
Yoga and weight loss
Before we target weight loss, it is important to understand the various factors that contribute in weight gain. Apart from faulty dietary habits, one should iden fy that weight gain also stems from inefficient func oning of various bodily func ons. Yoga has some of the most basic breathing prac ces at its base which aims at cleansing, balancing and rejuvena ng our inner organs and their func ons. Various breathing exercises and basic asanas help in increasing metabolic and heart rates. Once you are healed from within, the focus then shi s towards the outer body.
Yoga is considered as one of the the best and simplest ways for weight loss. The best thing about yoga is that it can be prac sed by people of any age as it is equally good for any age group. Even pregnant women are recommended to do Yoga because it can be healthful during the period as long as they take certain precau ons.Stress has been linked to many health problems including gaining weight. Yoga, which is believed to be a good stress buster, will not only help you stay in shape, but will also reduce your risk of ge ng certain

NON SURGICAL EXTERNAL LIPOLYSISThe new technology introduced by Slim Sutra called Non Surgical External Lipolysis helps an individual to stay fit without disrup ng the daily course of life. This technology doesn’t require LIPOSUCTION or any other techniques which interferes in the daily rou ne and neither does it require any compromise on the diet of the person. The technology will be a breather for fitness enthusiast across due to the simple and easy to understand technique of keeping one’s body in shape.The ultrasonic lipolysis, also known as aesthe c cavita on is a rela vely new technique that applies a phenomenon knows in physics to aesthe cs. This phenomenon is called cavita on, and is a very smart way to reduce fat because it is converted into liquid and then is naturally eliminated with urine. When cavita on is followed by a lympha c drainage the process is faster, as the drainage is very effec ve elimina ng liquids. Let’s look at the details on how ultrasonic cavita on works: The ultrasonic cavita on reduces fat cells with certain manipula on techniques, thanks to a machine that is placed on the skin exactly in the area that has to be treated. The cavita on physic principle was not used, un l some me ago, in aesthe c medicine. The machine works with ultrasounds that form bubble in the ssues where the fat cells are. The bubble expands and then it is immediately compressed. The temperature increases due to the pressure sudden varia on and the bubble implodes. The implosion damages the fat cells, reducing the localized adiposity. With the cavita on the fat cells are exposed to a pressure that breaks their membranes, unleashing the destruc on of adipose deposits. The fat contained (triglycerides) fragments into diglycerides that are expelled via the urinary system. It is strongly suggested a low- calorie diet and to drink at least two litres of water before and a er the treatment, being an essen al step in the fat elimina on process. Generally one cavita on treatment lasts 35 minutes, where a single part of the body is treated: abdomen, bu ocks, internal or external part of the legs are the most common ones. Between a session and another 72 hours must pass, so the body can eliminate fat. The minimum suggested number of sessions is from 6 to 10. How does cavita on work? The advanced technology of cavita on
enables the concentra on of energy at precise depth in the ssue, which enables the selec ve dispersion of fat cells under
the skin. The surface of the skin, the veins, the nerves and the muscles remain untouched. The fat out of the dispersed fat cells flows out in the form of triglycerides into the intercellular fluid, where it decomposes under the influence of enzymes into glycerol and simple fa y acids. The water- soluble glycerol enters the circula on and is spent for produc on of new energy, the insoluble simple fa y acids then travel into the liver, where they are decomposed like any other simple fa y acid, including those consumed from food. On which parts of body and how is cavita on executed? With cavita on procedure we remove cellulite and fat deposits which have accumulated on the BELLY, BUTTOCKS, THIGHS, HIPS, KNEES AND THE UPPER ARMS. With that, it is very important that you drink a lot of water, which helps the body to excrete the deposited fats. Who should make use of cavita on? Cavita on is meant for men and women who face problems of accumulated fat deposits or cellulite. Slim Sutra offer this unique, revolu onary and tested method of fat burning and body firming. Nowadays the shortage of me and exercise as well as inappropriate nutri on, rapidly increase the number of overweight people. A stern diet, strong will and hard work in the gym can contribute to weight reduc on, yet they usually do not remove the inveterate fat cushions on one's belly, hips and thighs. For a number of years surgical treatment (liposuc on) had been the only solu on for such problems. Does that mean there is no hope for men and women who refuse invasive procedures and the poten al risks they bring with them? The cavita on procedure is a painless revolu onary service which does not affect the surrounding
ssues and has no side effects. Even though many people are losing cen metres and gaining a new contour during their cavita on sessions, they do not understand how this new miracle weapon against fat works. The me has come to clarify it.
