Yoga aims for the integrity of body, mind and spirit through a system of Asana, Pranayama and Meditation.

Educationists are more about the importance of yoga education and some of them look hopefully towards yoga education as a useful complementary to overcome the physical and psychological problems. In line with educationists, yoga is found to provide strategies for successfully coping with various kinds of life stresses.

Yoga can provide relief form the hustle and busltle of the modern life. Health too is not a mere absence of diseases. It is a dynamic expression of life. “Without health, none of other dimensions of our life means anything to us. Our health, family, possessions will mean nothing if we will have no health. Practice of yoga not only help to keep the mental body strong and supple but also incorporate mental activities, disciplines that help to develop attention and yoga has been the subject of research in the past few decades for the therapeutic purposes for modern epidemic diseases like mental stress, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart diseases and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

  • Being Flexible About Flexibility by Norman Blair
    Being Flexible about Flexibility by Norman Blair These are my modest and provisional notes on the subject of hypermobility, the issues of flexibility in yoga, being able to sustain a yoga practice and specifically practicing Yin yoga. When I first taught yoga in 2001, I did not know what hypermobility or being too flexible meant. I remember Richard Freeman saying in June 2005, “the curse of flexibility and the blessing of stiffness”. I didn’t get it at the time. About six months later, as I observed practitioners and what happened in practicing, the penny dropped: yes, that makes sense. TO BE CLEAR… To be clear: I am not an anatomy expert (though I have a skeleton at home and another one that I always wear under my clothes when I go out). Nor am I highly skilled in dealing with hypermobility. If you are particularly interested in anatomy, these are three good books: Jo Avison Yoga Fascia Anatomy and Movement; Leslie Kaminoff Yoga Anatomy; and David Keil Functional Anatomy of Yoga. There is an excellent website run by Stu Girling: http://loveyogaanatomy.com. There are interesting posts at http://www.julesmitchell.com. If podcasts are your way of accessing information, there is: http://www.liberatedbody.com. And clearly many more… For those specifically interested in hypermobility, Jess Glenny (http://movingprayer.co.uk) has written articles and runs workshops on this subject. This piece is simply my reflections and my observations through practising and teaching. It is certainly not a definitive answer and I know that further research is always needed.

Please respect this request. Foundational Posture (Ngondro Trul khor) of Zhang Zhung Nyan Gyud by Pongyal Tsenpo The purpose of trul khor is to develop meditation practice (bog don). An important secondary benefit is to clear away the obstacles geg( sel) that obscure our meditative state. These practices are in Dzogchen texts. So far, we have seen those from Instructions on the A (A-tri trul khor). In this session we will include the ngondro movement from another important Bon Dzogchen text: the Listening Transmission of Zhang Zhung (Zhang zhung nyan gyud). This ngondro posture is like an “energetic massage” of the body, similar to one of the A-tri trul khor we saw and practiced in lesson 3, but without the initial visualization. The text describes this energetic massage as having six parts, each of which purifies one part of the body: head, right arm, left arm, right leg, left leg, and torso. • Sit cross-legged in the five-point posture.

  • Class Descriptions
    Class Descriptions: Vinyasa Yoga: Vinyasa yoga is a derivative of the traditional Ashtanga Yoga lineage and is the integration and synchronization of movement with the breath. In these classes posyuress are sequenced together in a strategic way so that each pose will help you find the balance and opening needed for the next. Vinyasa yoga has both physical and mental benefits. The flowing nature of the movements builds cardiovascular endurance while the poses build both strength and flexibility. The proper use and synchronization of the breath taps deep into the nervous system creating a relaxed, meditative experience. Perfect for beginners to advanced practitioners. Power Flow: Based on the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga system, power flow classes are challenging and fun. They give the practitioner more opportunity to work on deepening their practice through more advanced postures and transitions, including armbalances, handstands, headstands, hip openers and backbends Be prepared to work hard, sweat, laugh and play as we explore our limitless boundaries together. Modifications and options are given for all poses making Power Classes accessible to anyone, however it is recommended that students already have some Vinyasa or other types of yoga experience. Ashtanga: One of the more traditional lineages of modern yoga, Ashtanga Yoga is a vigorous, sweat producing, detoxifying practice that brings strength, flexibility and endurance to the body. The meditative practice is designed to purify the body while synchronization of the breath helps to still the mind. The postures are organized in 6 set sequences, each of which always begin with sun salutation and standing poses and conclude with a finishing series.

  • Tatvas and Gunas - (The Origin of the Universe) by R C Ganjoo Bookmark and Share
    Tatvas and Gunas - (The Origin of the Universe) by R C Ganjoo Bookmark and Share Swami Maheshwarananda has developed a comprehensive master system called "Yoga in Daily Life", based on original yoga tradition and specially directed to the situation and needs of modern civilization. The system can be lived and practised regardless of age, social status, nationality or denomination. It is internationally recognised and practised. On “Yoga in Daily Life” by Swami Maheshwarananda as told to R C GANJOO. In the beginning was SHUNYAKASHA - "emptiness" Or "the void'. Shunyakasha is more than "nothingness", it is an immense potency of dormant energy in which "everything" exists in a latent state of potentiality. Everything conceivable can be brought into existence , just like text written, or pictures drawn, on an empty sheet of paper. As creation began , the divine, all-encompassing consciousness took the form of the first and original vibration manifesting as the sound "OM". Just like light, sound is vibration, energy. Light and sound are the forms that the Divine Self takes in the Universe . OM is the reflection of the absolute reality. Om is "Adi Anadi" - without beginning or end. In the Veda (The Vedas are the oldest and most well known holy revelations), it is said. NADARUPA PARABRAHMA - (The form of the Supreme is sound) The vibrations of OM symbolises the manifestation of God in form. The silence between two OM -sound reveals the formless ,divine principle. OM embraces "all that exists"-past ,present and future, all spheres of the Cosmos, the world and its underlying reality , mind and matter, cause and effect, the path and the goal.

The mind is the trunk. The body constitutes the leaves. The leaves are no doubt important; they gather the sun’s rays for the entire tree. The trunk is equally important, perhaps more so. But if the root is not watered, neither will survive for long. “Education should start with the infant. Even the mother’s lullaby should be divine and soul elevating, infusing in the child fearlessness, joy, peace, selflessness and godliness. “Education is not the amassing of information and its purpose is not mere career hunting. It is a means of developing a fully integrated personality and enabling one to grow effectively into the likeness of the ideal that one has set before oneself. Education is a drawing out from within of the highest and best qualities inherent in the individual. It is training in the art of living.” —Swami Satyananda Saraswati Yoga, May 2001, p. 8 “Just getting into a school a few years ago was a big deal.
