Women play several roles in their lives. They are constantly preoccupied with the daily happenings and events (both big and small), and are unable to detach themselves even during relaxation. Their minds fluctuate with the varying frequencies of countless responsibilities.
Savasana is an opportunity to dissociate from mundane thoughts and re-energize oneself. All one has to do is get on the mat, disengage from the outside and contemplate within, cultivate the practice of inner awareness and detachment, understand the importance of human life and the relationship of the self with universal consciousness. This is the theory of Yog.
Our soul is covered with innumerable notions about the self,just like our bare bodies are clothed in various garments. Savasana is the time to strip ourselves off these beliefs,one by one, and realise our true self.
The relationship between the mind and the body should be like that of a mother and hersleeping baby. The mother tiptoes around the baby quietly, taking care not to awaken it; her attention is completely focussed on the baby even while attending to other chores. Similarly, the mind and breath should be silent around the body, yetcompletely aware of it.
Once this stage is reached in Savasana, say a silent prayer and wish for peace and happiness for all mankind. When done consistently, there will be noticeable mental and emotional changes within us that will percolate into our family lives.
