There tends to be a strong physical emphasis in modern Yoga asana practice. Most of our conversation is about the details of the poses, progress in strength or flexibility, and we are most interested in the opinions of the genetically gifted few who can achieve advanced poses. Happily there is much more available here than physical achievement. Even on a physical level, there is a lot to be said for simply forward folding, back bending, and twisting every day to support our health and well being. But there are psychologically potent experiences hidden within these movements. For example, Yoga practice can function as "prostrations" for some of us. Prostrations are heat-inducing, repetitious, physical movements that are meant to uncover and release emotion - traditionally they "burn through karma." I used to have a 10 minute or so period of intense, pointless anger in the middle of every practice. It took me a while to realize that these emotional states had no subject (I would usually make one up) and they would just dissipate as my practice continued. After years (!) of this it stopped. I was done with anger as my go-to emotion. Other people feel deep despair or elation or some other emotion on the mat as they burn through emotional pain and their habituated emotional responses.
