Be mindful of several points when you practice. First, ensure your stomach is somewhat empty; you should not have just eaten. Allow at least three and a half to four hours after a meal. Second, consider when to practice. Which time is best? Early morning, midday, or night? I would say that for good things, every time is the best time. For bad things, no time is a good time. Therefore, a practitioner should choose a time according to personal convenience—early morning, late morning, before noon, eight o'clock, noon, afternoon, or evening, whenever you can. This means you do not escape from your family and social obligations for your yoga. That is essential. If you escape from your work, it is not good, and it does not constitute good karma. We have obligations toward family, children, partners, and social life. As humans, we carry many responsibilities and should not neglect them. Do not become individualistic; otherwise, you may create an unhappy marriage, an unhappy family situation, and unhappy circumstances for your children. So, what should you do? There are twenty-four hours until the sun rises again, and you will definitely find one and a half hours for yourself. However, ensure that others do not become greedy and misuse your time. Therefore, the best time is when you feel relaxed, having completed all your duties, and are now ready to practice. Ensure your room has a comfortable temperature—neither too hot nor too cold. Good air circulation is important. If the weather is pleasant outside, you can practice in a garden or on a nice terrace. Never practice in a hurry. Hurry in yoga? There is no competition and no challenges when you are alone. This approach creates harmony within you. Then you become one with yourself. You become aware of your body, your breath, your thoughts, and your surroundings. In that place where you feel secure and safe, you begin to practice your āsanas.
