(Once again the video did not work...it will not let me paste or embed it on here...
Peter Pandoer in "Ashtango Yoga: Pratyahara", talks about how when you're listening to your senses it is like a turtle inside of its shell. He says that "you are turning yourself for answers" (Pandoer). He also talks about how when you listen to your senses, it can be the most relaxing and calming exercise possible. We are also stressed because of the society we live in. Pandoer talks about how our society bombards our senses; he says that all the sounds of cars and the smells of the factories are hurting our senses and inner thoughts. He also says that more people these days are nervous. He blames it on our senses; he says that our senses run through nerves and when our senses are bombarded it can make our nerves go hay wire, thus causing nervousness.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. It was a lot longer than most, but it was informational. I agree with everything that he said. It all made perfect sense. My favorite thing that he talked about was how nervous we are as a nation. I know that I am nervous a lot, especially lately. Now that I know that when I am home I should try and center my senses and it will help with what is to come when I walk outside.
