Divya helps us continue on our path of learning the various yoga styles with Hatha yoga. ⁠
⁠
She says: ⁠
Hatha yoga is a classical form of asana that focuses on finding alignment and mastering the push and pull of opposing forces through stillness and strength. ⁠
⁠
In Sanskrit, Ha means Sun and Tha means Moon. This corresponds to the Pingala and Ida nadis, or energetic channels along the right and left sides of our bodies, respectively. Our vital life force energy known as Prana moves through these channels, among many others. ⁠
⁠
In a Hatha practice, the specific manner in which we embody postures helps us to bring our Ha and Tha energies into balance, immersing us in the duality of existence. Breath is used to steady your posture and quieten the chitta vrittis (or mental chatter) in the mind. ⁠
⁠
Practicing Hatha yoga looks and feels very different from other popular forms of asana. It brings about a sense of calm, strength and steadiness unique to its format. ⁠
