Yoga as psychological therapy

       Yoga is a physical and mental discipline that originated in India and is a series of asanas or postures that unite the body and mind. Yoga practitioners claim that this gives them health and peace of mind. There are many interpretations about why and what is done, but something that is clear is that it gives the person more flexibility and aesthetics. Yoga is for people of all ages even older people often say they feel younger. When yoga develops as a lifestyle, life is accepted as is, discovering own abilities, being happy and looking beyond himself.

           Among the physical benefits of yoga are strengthening muscles and helps reduce pain caused by physical conditions, increases energy, breathe better and in turn benefits our systems. On the other hand, it promotes concentration, reduces stress and gives us harmony. In practice a balance that can serve as therapy for psychological conditions experienced. For example, when the person is confident it has the ability to make decisions clearly against their own difficulties, he remains with optimistic thoughts and self-esteem increases. So yoga and psychology are integrated by the search for the integration of human beings and their experiences.

Self steem

      Self esteem consists of thoughts, perceptions and self-love. This also influences how the person is, acts, expresses emotions and relate to others. Often is needed to be developed with respect for own person to accept reality and understand why the shares. Self-esteem also arises automatically from the inside, being an essential human need and evolve over time and experiences that the person has. The psychologist Abraham Maslow presents self-esteem as part of his hierarchy of human needs with emphasis on two aspects, the appreciation of self and received from others then, when these reach a self-realization is obtained.
      Self-esteem is derived from many variants and these are positive and negative. For example, when there is an excess of self-love, it may seem selfish and narcissistic. On the other hand, when it has a low self-esteem people are depressed. biological and social factors help shape the personality, because often those who are dear manage to feel safer and experience who receive negative reviews pessimism. Then one must struggle with the environment and trust yourself no matter what others may say, a positive self provide strength, will help to accept errors and to persevere. 
      I share a link where Henrik Edberg provides information about how to increase self-esteem. For example: Refocus on doing what YOU really, really like to do, stop falling into the comparison trap, handle mistakes and failures in a more positive way and say stop to your inner critic.

What is Psychology?

    Psychology is a word derived from the Greek psykhe- "breath, spirit, soul" and logia "study of " having the meaning of study of mind. Psychology as a science is an applied academic field trying to understand human behavior, mental processes and interaction with the physical and social world. The observation is essential to determine which treatment will be used. The evolved psychological analysis of biology and philosophy thus derives two psychological concepts. One is the scientist who seeks a causal and concrete explanation and philosophical asking for an explanation of meanings and senses.

       We are all in some way because psychologists in our daily life we do what a psychologist does in a laboratory. Observe the behavior of people around us, their reactions, we analyze these observations, theories and seek to establish evidence to support them. There are different schools of thoughts that are emphasized in certain psychological doctrines in particular. These include structuralism, functionalism, psychoanalysis, behaviorism, humanism, cognitivism. You can understand that this science is concerned with addressing issues affecting the spirit, the way of feeling of an individual or a society. It is important to be aware that life is subjective, never a person may behave, feel or current in the same way you would. So I invite you to respect the diversity of thought and interest to understand them.
