Myths surrounding AIDS include that it is highly contagious.
It is not highly contagious.
Neither can you get AIDS from kissing.
It cannot be transmitted by toilet seats, or if you share food with someone who has AIDS.
This is because HIV dies quite quickly once it is outside the body.
Mind Body Medicine Emotions affect the immune system.
Anger, guilt, shame, feelings of hopelessness and fear are common amongst AIDS sufferers.
These feelings compromise the immune system; so does suppressing them.
As human beings, we experience a wide range of emotions and feelings.
We can learn to work with the negative emotions so they can keep flowing rather than linger and linger.
Yoga promotes deep relaxation with restorative poses and guided imagery.
It offers poses that strengthen without creating heat.
Poses to open the heart, or increase connection to the ground.
Breath awareness can calm the mind; while complete exhalations help release toxins.
Sufferers can learn to modulate the breath to induce cooling.
Hold hand positions to increase devotional feelings.
And create visualizations and affirmations to support a journey of healing.
Yoga philosophy encourages ongoing connection with the inner self.
Techniques draw us inward, to focus and experience our world within.
How can we foster this connection when we are immobile for extended periods of time?
