What yoga positions should you do so you can suck your penis?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, you don't need to do yoga just to suck your penis, all you need to do is stretch every day and try to suck your penis every day, you will get closer and closer every day.

Just lay back and lift your legs up and over your shoulders, it takes practise and not all males can do this. The length of the penis and the size of the stomach can go against it.

Meditation has no effect on brain activity?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Frontal lobe

This is the most highly evolved part of the brain, responsible for reasoning, planning, emotions and self-conscious awareness. During meditation, the frontal cortex tends to go offline.

Parietal lobe

This part of the brain processes sensory information about the surrounding world, orienting you in time and space. During meditation, activity in the parietal lobe slows down.

Thalamus

The gatekeeper for the senses, this organ focuses your attention by funneling some sensory data deeper into the brain and stopping other signals in their tracks. Meditation reduces the flow of incoming information to a trickle.

Reticular formation

As the brain’s sentry, this structure receives incoming stimuli and puts the brain on alert, ready to respond. Meditating dials back the arousal signal.

Meditation before or after your morning work out routine?

Asked by Wiki User

==new answer== Any kind of work out requires a degree of concentration. You have been using concentration during workout and have stimulated the blood flow and are more able to get relaxed and calm for meditation. You may want to include a concentration exercise after workout and before meditation. For ten minutes, practice keeping your attention on one object.

What type of people meditate?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's fair to say that there are people in all walks of life who meditate: homeless people, wealthy people, and every income level between; hard-working people, lazy people, and every level of inaction between; scientists and philosophers and religious clergy from virtually every religion in the world, and atheists from both within and outside of the scientific community; fanatics and apathetics; and virtually every human being who ever existed.

Meditation isn't something you do as a technique; it's a natural state of being, one that people do without even knowing that they do it.

Meditation is simply being you for a few moments, without the masks of the world, paying attention to your own thoughts and relaxing while you do it. No technique required.

Can you do yoga if you have a herniated disc?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No!!!

I am editing the above answer. You can do yoga, but make sure the teachers are aware of your condition. If any postures invoke the disk related pain, do not do them, or ask for modifications so you can practice without pain. You might find that styles of yoga that include a lot of forward bends are not for you. Backward bends may alleviate your pain.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The more you meditate, the more beneficial your practice will be. Whether they are meditating formally (for example, in a cross-legged sitting posture) or not, master meditators are always meditating. The idea is to take the calm clarity of mind produced by formal meditation and extend it throughout all your activities.

Asked by Aayushsrivastava14

There are several difficult Physical postures in Yoga,

but the most difficult according to me is the "Shavasana" or dead man's position,

It is the simplest physically but toughest mentally as in this posture one has to clear the mind of all thoughts and mind control is much more difficult than body control...
