Kemetic yoga: Kemetic yoga is a system of yoga which involves a combination of physical movements, deep breathing techniques and meditation.[1] Developed in the 1970s, this form of yoga is inspired by Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. It has an emphasis on breathing patterns, and also inculcates the philosophies of self-development,[1] healing of mind-body-spirit and self-discovery.[2] Kemetic yoga's practice was developed in the 20th century by claiming association with some hieroglyphic texts from ancient Egypt as well as the wall carvings and paintings on Egyptian temples which portray pharaohs in stretching postures.[1][3] A small research conducted in the 1970s by yoga professionals Asar Hapi and Yirser Ra Hotep is said to have resulted in the development of what is known as Kemetic yoga.[4]

Probably a blk American who thinks he’s Descended from Egyptian . Hotep!

[@lauwilliams-hn8qs]

Correction, the practice was "resurrected" not developed in 1970. Kemetic people knew the importance of breathing, movement, etc and practiced this form of "yoga".

[@martinvanburen4578]

@@lauwilliams-hn8qs correction of a false correction: no mention of yoga every in Egyptian texts and Kemetic works. People in the 70's fabricated yoga. The word yoga is not Kemet. Kemet thus is filled with fakeness.

[@evensthomas4364]

The education in America must be going to shit. The word Yoga is a Sanskrit term meaning to unite the individual with the Cosmic. It's a way of life. Westerners, especially Americans think it's just physical poses. The Kemetic term to the Sanskrit word Yoga is Smai. Smai means union. Not just any union but union of the spirit and body, union of the individual and the Cosmic. It gets deep.

[@martinvanburen4578]

@@evensthomas4364 It definitely is shit if Afrocentrics take a Sanskrit term and then wholesale claim yoga originated from Egypt. It gets so deep in shit for sure.

[@capac2]

This is fascinating! Appreciate this information. Curious, where in Kemetic studies, writings and/or archeology is there evidence of yoga like practices in ancient Kemet? Where is this found? Thank you

[@lauwilliams-hn8qs]

This can be found by researching. The information is available.

The only time breathe is important is when I’m not getting any. 10 years stale air in your 🫁. I’m sorry pretty lady, I’ll watch you talk but I’m not buying that😂

[@reformedgirlblogger]

Breathing is linked to the nervous system. Short shallow breath can lead to anxiety and other illness, that’s why people always say to “take a deep breath”poor posture can also affect this

[@Nkosi766]

What's really comical is how you broadly display your lack of knowledge like a badge of honor. May you find peace within.

[@elindioedwards7041]

@lauwilliams-hn8qs if your comment was directed to me, I will, in turn respond with the following: There is a great deal of pseudo information in Egyptomania as well as the black counciness communities. There is also a lot of money spent in pursuit of 'hidden Kemetic knowledge' and other similar endeavors. Fair enough. People are free to spend their money however they like. IMO, time would be much better spent studying the authentic culture and wisdom that can be found in both the carribbean and the US. Zora Neale Hurston could be a starting point for that kind of journey. In closing, I would say that if I was going to study an esoteric practice such as yoga that I would want to do so under someone who is qualified and who knows what they are doing. Thank you for your kind words in regards to my personal peace.

[@Tneo7]

She doesn't no what she's talking about, when it come to breathing that's not the correct visualization technique you dont visualise a snake you visualise something elce completely, ever thing else is correct except the snake part lol !

[@TM3Alumni]

Whether you believe it or not, She's talking specifically about Kemetic Yoga and explaining the imagery they used and why. You lack basic comprehension.

[@ari3lism]

I think it depends on which yoga you practice “yoga” really is an American term and comprehension on actual practices from other places like ancient India and ancient Kemet and other ancient civilizations so it could be different from that region

[@wipedsol8038]

What should we visualize then?

[@Nkosi766]

Add kemetic to any absurdity and ppl will believe you know what you’re talking about. The ancient Greeks considered Egypt a mystery, but blk Americans expect me to believe they can read the walls of Egypt 😂🤣😂

[@lauwilliams-hn8qs]

@@Nkosi766 Actually, the ancient Greeks broadly state they acquired most of their knowledge from Kemet, where many of them went to study math, science, medicine, spirituality, etc, etc, etc with the master teachers. And with your lack of knowledge on this very simple fact of the ancient Greeks, why would anyone expect anything further from you. You're toting Eurocentric propaganda that started in the late 1700s that is not based in fact/reality and thus continues to be debunked by scholars, and others who are basing their findings on facts/evidence.
