绿色瑜伽
Green Yoga
These days, just about everyone with a pulse is starting to get this message—the ominous signs are all around us. Climate change, most scientists agree, is a reality. The average global temperature has climbed sharply in the past 30 years. If the current warming trend continues, the earth's temperature in the coming decades could reach heights not experienced since the time of the dinosaurs. In just one year, the Arctic Ocean has lost an area of year-round ice cover the size of Texas. The results of all this warming could be cataclysmic, experts warn. Coastlines will shift as polar ice caps melt; storms, droughts, and floods will increase; massive human migrations could take place. The world is in danger.
But what does this have to do with yoga? Quite a bit, it turns out. The essence of yoga is balance, and that means not only balance in our bodies or our emotional lives, but also balance in our relationship to the world. Yoga's core principles can motivate you to take meaningful actions that are good for the planet and also appropriate for you, whatever your circumstances. And while your yoga practice is deepening your commitment to living green, it can also help you to cope with the anxiety that the state

均气温在过去30年里显著爬升。如果目前的这股变暖气势持续不减的话，地球将在未来几十年内达到自恐龙时代以来的最高温度。在一年之内，北冰洋融化的冰块面积就已经和德克萨斯州一样大了。专家们警告说，全球变暖的后果是非常严重的。海岸线会随着两极冰雪的融化迅速转移，暴风雨、干旱、洪水等气候灾害将显著增加；大规模的人口迁移也将成为不得已之举。整个世界岌岌可危。
然而，瑜伽和这些现象之间有什么必然联系吗？多多少少，我们还是能做些改变的。我们说瑜伽的真谛在于平衡，不仅是指身体或情感上的平衡，也包括我们与世界的关系的平衡。不管你身处什么环境，借助于瑜伽的核心原则的指引，我们可以采取一些同时有利于地球也有利于我们自己的行为。当你的瑜伽练习能深刻地植入绿色生活的承诺，你也就学会了应对那些莫名出现的焦虑。
