This episode introduces yoga and meditation, describes them, and provides information you can use to decide which form is right for you. Because there are so many forms, it can be difficult to know how to choose. Let’s start by saying that yoga and meditation are practical aspects of Indian philosophy, a vast ocean of theories, concepts, practices, and techniques designed to create better physical and mental health and the evolution of your consciousness. The word yoga is a Sanskrit word that means union and connection. It can be the union of any two things. However, in the context of yoga philosophy, it refers to the connection between the little self and the highest Self, between individual and universal consciousness. The word meditation is an English word, an umbrella term for many processes, including the act of thinking, contemplating, devising, or pondering. The aim of this process is to connect more and more to that which you are contemplating. Therefore, meditation is an English word that, like the word yoga, means connection, the connection between the meditator and the object of meditation. The act of connection in meditation occurs when you use a technique that enables you to connect with and eventually feel, experience, and know the object. If you meditate on a flower, you can feel into it and know its nature and purpose. This leads to a state of meditation, an awakening to the reality of what you are meditating on. In essence, all forms of yoga and meditation aim to optimize physical and mental health and develop self-awareness. Self-awareness is the key to tapping into your innate intelligence and intuition. It enables you to know what is right for you, and it also enables autonomy, spontaneity, and intimacy.
