Dhāraṇā may be translated as "holding", "holding steady", "concentration", or "single focus". The mind wanders in different directions because of the influence exerted by each of the five senses (smell, taste, vision, touch and sound). The goal of dharana is to restrain the mind and prevent it from wandering, in turn focusing on the Self. More on UnbotheredWellness.com.
Pratyahara is a Sanskrit word meaning "withdrawal of the senses.” The two root Sanskrit words of pratyahara are prati, which means “to withdraw,” and ahara, which means “food;” in this case, “food” refers to any external stimuli that you consume with your mind.
Dive deep into the 5th limb of yoga today with Eszter.
Pranayama is essentially breath control, with the primary objective of creating mental calmness and tranquillity of the nervous system. It is the bridge between the physical body & mind and is an excellent preparatory activity for meditation.

Downward Facing Dog, Triangle Pose, Cobra & all the Warriors - the most well known aspect of yoga. Asana practice is a distinguishing feature of yoga; it is the process of exercising the body and the mind together as a single integrated system. There is a vast difference between yoga and other forms of physical exercise; this is because asanas seek to develop psycho-physiological function, whereas traditional forms of exercise only focus on improving physiology.
The second Limb of yoga, Niyama, can be described as the rules of personal conduct and includes both physical and mental disciplines. Self-discipline ultimately leads to self-purification and wisdom.
Yama can be described as the ethical & moral commandments of how we interact and treat others. As a member of society, if we follow the ethical disciplines of yama, we are helping to create good relationships & social harmony, regardless of time, status or other circumstances. Learn more about the 5 disciplines of the yamas with practical examples.
With the uniqueness of our spine, it also means our postures can not look the same. However, cookie-cutter asanas often force our back into postures that don't necessarily help a "perfect posture". Learn a little more about your back & how the natural, yet personal, curve of your spine may already be a healthy one, even if it looks different to others.

Have you ever wondered why some postures in yoga feel so out of reach? Even though you are an avid practitioner? Well, it could be due to your special musculoskeletal build up. There are no such thing as average! Learn more about the segmentations of your spine so you can better your own asana practice.
One of the most common answers to "how are you feeling" is often followed by: "I did something to my back..." I don't think it is an alien thought to many of us, as we may have woken up with a stiff neck, pinched a muscle as we lifted a box, or pulled our back as we tried to plant some vegetables...
Throughout Term 4 at Unbothered Wellness we are focusing on tips & tricks to ease our back while strengthening the core & its muscles for a healthier spine.
