nasty-asnatas 'tu yogo 'sti

na caikantam anasnatah

na cati-svapna-silasya

jagrato naiva carjuna (Bhagavad Gita 6.16)


There is no possibility of one's becoming a yogi, O Arjuna, if one eats  too much, or eats too little, sleeps too much or does not sleep enough.


yuktahara-viharasya

yukta-cestasya karmasu

yukta-svapnavabodhasya

yogo bhavati duhkha-ha (Gita 6.17)


He who is temperate in his habits of eating, sleeping, working and  recreation can mitigate all material pains by practicing the yoga  system.


Wonder how many yoga practitioners follow this? :)


In our modern lifestyle, a lot of the health disorders are caused by overeating (and junk food in high quantities) and lesser sleep. At least if these two issues are remedied, along with a regular exercise regimen, many of the health issues can be remedied.
