Readers, please put your comments as you wish. Here in this post, I describe my own feedback about &#8216;Effects in mind occurring through Online Lessons&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yoga ultimately teaches one becoming one&#8217;s own master through finding that one&#8217;s own innate divinity is no difference from the divinity of natural law, which is enabling all phenomena of the universe to exists and occur. Oki-sensei put this into his unique expression &#8220;The life force is God&#8221;. Thus as each individual practising to be his\/her own master, we respect and help each other and develop together &#8211; This is the ideal human society in Oki-sensei&#8217;s teaching. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As running 90-minute online lessons, I am realising this way of yoga lessons can serve very well enhancing our awareness towards the above mentioned. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. As an English saying &#8220;You\u00a0 can\u00a0 lead a\u00a0 horse\u00a0 to\u00a0 water, but\u00a0 you\u00a0 can\u2019t\u00a0 make\u00a0 him\u00a0 drink&#8221; indicates, it is the most basic importance that we must prepare ourselves to attend anything consciously willingly, if we want to produce its best effect. To attend online lessons, you may have to reschedule your daily routine, have to ask other members of your family to cooperate to your &#8216;Me&#8217; time, have to prepare comfortable environment which helps you focus on your practice, have to prepare yoga kits yourself, not like jumping out of your house into a yoga studio. In a few words, basically you have to organise yourself to get ready for entering a special realm even for just 90 minutes. But, you can guess what will develop if you accumulate such self-discipline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. In online lessons, I don&#8217;t come around to give individual advice or point out this or that in order for you to adjust positions, speed or general intensity. Instead, you have to observe my demonstration when I show differences of positions at this angle or that, carefully listen to my explanation about inner sense that would occur according to small differences, and finally you have to communicate with your own inner sense. This kind of mental attentiveness is really a good practice to polish our inner sense. I believe it is a very important element to make physical exercises to yogic exercises. Using the body as a portal and developing conscious mind, yoga is a method to integrate the balance of the body, mind and spirit, throughout all levels of our existence. Even while giving for a short lesson each, I hope I am viewing this direction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some may feel put off using technology to attend yoga lessons. However, with positive feedbacks from both the attendees and myself, I am very happy to run the online lessons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Okido Yoga UK Video - we are running online lessons\" width=\"584\" height=\"329\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RYCWtoJOiVE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So far I have been receiving very good feedbacks, and so I think the attendees have been receiving benefits on physical aspects.
