| As a part of active treatment through yogic methods, the individual will be given adequate training in selected yoga practices by trained instructors under medical supervision. The individual on his part will take the necessary initiative, to learn and practice the Asanas taught to him methodically and with total dedication. The individual should attend practical classes regularly and follow instructions given to him by the instructor and the attending physician, faithfully and thoroughly. The individual should only do those Asanas prescribed and taught to him in the class for his specific treatment. The individual should take into account his own health conditions while doing the yoga exercises and should practice the Asana only according to the instructor’s guidance. Some of the Asanas taught in class may look difficult but regular practice will make the Asana quite easy. If the individual feels any difficulty while doing a Yoga Asana, he should report the matter to the instructor and the Medical Officer immediately to enable them to take prompt necessary action, if required. A ‘Lecture Programme’ on Yoga and allied subjects regularly runs for all indoor and outdoor individuals of the hospital because it is felt that understanding the background of the therapy maximizes the benefits. |
