The Aim of Practicing Yoga Asanas

In  our yoga practice we take advantage of the fact that the asanas sow in the mind the seeds of specific states of consciousness.  We use the power of the mind, concentration, sensitivity, and intention to make those states of mind more dynamic to our awareness, thus greatly aiding our meditation.

In summary, the aim of all yoga techniques, asanas, breathing techniques ,bandhas, mudras, is to control prana. Thus every yoga technique can rightly be called a pranayama technique or life force control.

The more we experience the a state of harmony and joy, the more we discover the kingdom of heaven is within. This is a small listing of  the many Yoga Asanas available.
