Chakra Identification

The asanas are classified according to the chakra it stimulates while doing the posture, and the awareness point to be focused on while holding the postures. Focusing on a particular chakra before, during and after the posture can enhance the circulation of Prana to all the internal organs related to that chakra. It also helps to expose and develop the qualities of the related chakra within us.

Doshas Classification

The asanas are classified according to the dosha that they help balance. The balance of the doshas also helps balance the five elements in our body. They are responsible for coordinating and directing all the substances and structures of the body. Any disturbance or imbalance in their equilibrium can lead to several kinds of ailments and diseases.

Intensity Classification

All the asanas (postures) are classified and categorized for those who are practicing Hatha Yoga regularly (daily) for more than one year. Some postures are classified according to the level of difficulty in the steps to achieve the posture, while some postures are classified according to the level of flexibility which the body needs to develop to achieve the posture. Overall, the intensity of the posture is just reference guide.

"While Andiappan's practice may be unattainable for many readers, his attitude of delight and discovery in the body's potential is accessible to all. In Yoga from the Heart, Andiappan has created an album of inspiration for yogis of all practices and levels." - Yoga Journal – USA
