      Haven't seen anyone getting enlightened by the modern version of ashtanga yoga somehow. Not even here in India.

    I did notice increased flexibility and anxiety reduction. Thank you Ashtanga!!

      Ashtanga really has helped so many people in so many ways! Is it almost your 1 year yoga birthday?

    Biggest thing I've noticed is a general increase in self awareness. Im less irritable and frustrated and generally more carefree about life. Thank you Ashtanga!!

      The pleasure is all mine! I can spend hours going over academic studies so it was really interesting to find that there had been so many studies examining the benefits of this practice specifically!

    I suppose learning Sanskrit numerals can be especially fun for Slavic languages speakers, since the numerals in Slavic languages are so similar. ;) I'm Polish and it took me just a few repetitions to get it. ;D

      Ah yes! Interesting point! I'm half Greek and once upon a time I was learning Serbian and loved the Cyrillic alphabet. So yes given that you already know 2 alphabets, I'm sure Sanskrit must have come a bit more naturally to you!

      @@ThisYogaLife-ak I was rather referring to the pronunciation. ;) Numbers from 2 to 6 are pretty much "the same" (sort of) as in Slavic languages, 7, 8 and 10 are also very similar. You can easily see that these languages have common Indo-European roots.

      @@marek9081 ah yes I see what you mean! Thanks for pointing that out :-) Same for Greek too. For us 2,3,5,7,8 and 10 are similar in pronunciation.

    Noticed that after practicing constantly, the mind gets more into meditative state. No other style makes it deep like this. Also deeply feeling inner structures that is involved in bandhas, so its not only outer muscles working, but also inner. Also there is freedom from choosing. This is liberating feeling in practice 😊

    This is all true for me…ashtanga has made me soooo much stronger and I’m much slower to anger overall…

    I’m enjoying and learning Ashtanga yoga at a local studio. I practiced Bikram for awhile and it was my choice as bikram poses not adding pressure on the wrist. Now I found Ashtanga and wanted to continue practice. Will you kindly be able to helping me how to practice not adding pressure on my wrist. Thank you so much for your efforts educating
