The Inner Tradition of Yoga by Michael Stone

For many initiates, yoga may appear to be purely a corporeal activity—a practice related solely to the pursuit of fitness—or perhaps as a recreational and social pastime to be enjoyed with friends. While yoga may indeed serve as a means to physical well-being or provide opportunities to forge new relationships, it also extends to us an opportunity to turn inward and "let go." As Michael Stone—yoga teacher and psychotherapist—suggests, moving beyond the presumed externality of the body in the practice of asana (pose) is something that requires us to move more deeply inward into the heart of yoga itself. But for a beginner who's just attended a series of classes that have focused on the very physical sensations and positioning of a downward dog or a spinal twist, what does it mean to turn inward, and just what exactly is the role of asana then anyway?

Question by ellagirl: Painful emotions from the heart..which are they?
I am going through counseling, and just finished a type of yoga training that can be very cathartic. I feel like there are some emotions are trying to get dislodged, and it is more painful than I realize. The problem is that I would like to be able to identify these emotions and I have been unable to identify them. It is a very, very painful emotion that is coming out. It is physically painful, and I feel it around my heart. When I cry, it physically hurts. I am wondering if anyone has any ideas? There is also a lot of tightness around my heart, and it is difficult to breath.

Best answer:
I'm having similar chest pains and shortness of breath. In my case, it could be related to my diabetes, I'm told, but since I also have a depressive illness, that's also a distinct possibility. Depression does hurt physically.
