Memory Disorders – Yoga

Ayurvedic medicine, a traditional way of Indian healing system   believes that all the activities are combination of both physic and physical factors and that any illness including memory disorders too involves both of these aspects. Hence it deals with both while treating the same.

Memory is the capacity to retain and then recollect the information about all the past and present situations. Ayurvedic treatment  includes regular yogic practice which helps to flush out the toxins that are blocked in channels. It also increases the circulation of blood to the brain thereby improving the concentration and memory power. It is a  discipline that includes asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing techniques) and dhyana (meditation).
   
Asanas – The gentle  stretches of body postures when done slowly and with a focused mind cleans the organs of the body and helps in eliminating the trapped toxins from the channels thereby increasing the memory power.  Inverted postures increases the blood supply to brain which aids in enhancing the intellectual powers and also treats the memory disorders. Vrikshasana or the tree pose and Natarajasana or the dancer’s pose helps to improve balance/concentration thereby toning up the memory power.

Pranayama – Breathing techniques helps the mind to focus on the inhale and exhale of our breath and the oxygen or prana (energy) flow is increased in the body and brain.  This leads to concentration and treats all kinds of memory disorders.

Dhyana – It strengthens one’s mind and helps one drastically reduces the unnecessary and irrelevant thoughts and thinking. It helps one to attain calm and a tension free mind. When one meditates on the third eye between the eye brows, the  brain activation and the memory power is increased.
