Don't be so concerned about the idols when you are doing yoga and concentrate on doing the yoga. Just remember that when it gets too tiring or feel dizzy, you need to do the shavasana.
After some time you will get used to the asanas and will start doing them yourself. Your body becomes very flexible....on an average people feel atleast 10 yrs younger. There also some breathing exercies called Pranayama which help in losing weight, you can refer my 360 page.

It's a catholic transfer to safeguard Christianity. There is not anything detrimental approximately yoga. Yoga is essentially the most old train which used to be born on the time while the upanishads and vedas had been born. It's time is undated. All those crap speak through the Christian missionary is not anything however one more devout politics. I've visible adequate factors given through those idiots and will under no circumstances pay attention whatever extra bizarre. It's scientifically proved that yoga treatments nearly each and every sickness adding melanoma. There had been information that there were optimistic alterations in persons affected with HIV additionally. But it is not thoroughly proved. I had been working towards yoga for the beyond nine years and I have not visible it damage me in any respect. There are hundreds of thousands of persons from in all places the globe coming to India and studying yoga and in addition going approximately commencing their possess facilities in all places the arena, and nowhere have I heard that yoga will also be detrimental. In truth it's even though the train of yoga, you return to become aware of that, the frame is not anything however only a difficulty of the brain, and you're whatever greater than the frame. Your attachment to the frame drops with the train of yoga and pass directly to larger stages of knowing the Divinity inherent in you. You become aware of the relationship with the divine by way of yoga. Let me remind all of the Catholics that Yoga itself approach to hook up with the divine, to emerge as united with the holy spirit, as of their language. How dare she says yoga is an old-fashioned method of connecting with the divine. So dull!!!! These persons are ridiculous and fans. In truth, if ever there will probably be a lake of fireside and brimstone, it's those Catholics and different missionaries who will burn there for deceptive persons.

...just keep breathing slowly and delibrately while you are in each posture. Don't rush or force your body. You'll be fine. These are ancient postures proven over a period of thousands of years. ;)
