Resumo: |
More than half the world's population currently live in big citties and they have to deal with some of their physical and social characteristics, They can be considered as stressor factors, hindering the well-being of its population. Yoga is considered in this context, often as a body practice, but in fact, it is a complex philosophy focused on self-knowledge and human development. This study was based on knowledge of Environmental Psychology and Yoga to understand the lifestyle in relation to beliefs and values of people living in big cities and who went to India to study any discipline related to Yoga. It is a qualitative research conducted through semi-structured interviews that began with the choice of a significant object, symbol of the personal experience in India. Two men and three women living in São Paulo aged between 32 and 54 years and were searching the knowledge source about this philosophy attended this research. It was possible to observe differences between participants regarding the impressions they had of India and its culture and also in impressions and affective bonds that each of them has in the urban environment. However, common elements were described by all participants, the development or strengthening of spirituality after the travel to India, the activation of biospheric values that promote pro-environmental behavior and the search for alternative spaces into the nature, out of the city. Yoga has proved to be a tool that allows its practitioners to experience and recognition of the unity of all things, promoting values geared to the common good and performing as a strategy for adaptation and transformation in the urban environment |
