Namaste,
From ancient times, women have always played a strong role in the evolution, development and spreading the awareness of yoga. Shrimati Sita Devi Yogendra, wife of Founder Shri Yogendraji, was equally dedicated to promoting yoga among the common man and especially to open the doors of the world of yoga to women. Sita Devi, also lovingly known as Mother, states that “in maintaining the day-to-day health of women, there is more in Yoga than meets the eye.”
Leading on the path, Pujya Maa, Smt. Hansaji Jayadeva Yogendra, the Director of The Yoga Institute, has been a proactive torch bearer for women in the global Yoga fraternity. Renowned as the First Lady of Yoga, she is the epitome of householder Yoga and has dedicated her life to spreading the awareness of yoga to women and men across the globe.
This month, we also celebrate Holi, the festival of colours. While all the colours originate from white, all the colours when mixed together, result in black. This reects in our existence too as we all have a bright, peaceful, white side to us and a dark black side in our consciousness as well. Yoga sadhana helps us to diminish the black and boost the white, by aligning our consciousness. Signifying the triumph of good over evil, let us celebrate Holi with the colors of joy, prosperity, happiness, and peace.
Following all mandated safety precautions and protocols, The Yoga Institute is now welcoming all yoga aspirants for on- campus teacher training courses too.
Wishing you all a Happy and Healthy Learning, Women’s Day and Holi!

Millennials that those people doing ghosting are not the only ones around. I(or Generation Y) seem to be the most confused as they are You will also realise that there are people around you who make stuck between the traditional ways of their parents on one hand - you feel good and safe, who you can laugh with, seek those out. whose only choice seemed an arranged marriage and to whom And that space is found through trial and error, which builds our love often seemed like a compromise - and the current youth (or resilience.

Dr. Meeta Kurhekar Student
I am a Homoeopathic doctor, based in Mumbai, India. I always had an inclination toward Yoga and wanted to learn it from an authentic source. I consider myself very fortunate to have gotten the opportunity to complete the Basic Teachers Training Course from The Yoga Institute. I am extremely happy and satised with the way the course has been designed. It is a very comprehensive course, giving us the true essence of Yoga and making us realise how Yoga is actually a way of life. I am thoroughly impressed with the balanced and inclusive approach of the course; on one hand it offers a deep Yoga philosophy with spiritual knowledge and on the other hand, the practical teachings for becoming a professional and competent Yoga teacher in the material world outside. This course has equipped me well with the knowledge and condence of going out and teaching Yoga professionally. All the teachers here are so competent and knowledgeable. This course has given me a deeper insight into all the aspects of Yoga; it has added a new dimension to my life, given it a new meaning and the right purpose. Thank you to everyone at The Yoga Institute.

Parag Talsania Student from The Yoga Institute, Andheri
It has been 11 months since I joined the Institute as a member and have been attending regular class of the M/W/F batch at 7.30 am. There is now a broad change in my lifestyle. Our teacher, Mrs. Hiral Sanghvi, has moulded us per our physical and mental strengths to perform asasans, think positive and write down 10 positive points daily. It is a mantra to nd change in life and I am grateful to be a part of this more than 100 years old institute. I found a change in my attitude, handling the up and downs of the stressful life of a common man with simplicity and calmness and positive thinking to solve problems quickly. My exibility and tness has increased and I don't miss a class. It is the commitment for my health that has given me a new path and the vision to live a better life from now on. I am 45 but I am now feeling 25, with more energy.
Kalpita Student from 7 Day Health Camp
Wen I enrolled for the 7 Day Health Camp, I had a completely different idea about Yoga. But during those 7 days, I realised that yoga is not about asanas and pranayama. It goes much deeper than that. his course has helped me learn about yogic concepts, develop a better understanding of pranayamas, and most importantly, I learned about the Yoga way of life.

27 YOGASATTVA Shri Yogendraji -
1)Behind the supercial knowledge of things with names and forms, there lies within everyone a deep-rooted craving for the knowledge of things unknown.
[Known becomes nite, Unknown remain Innite....Carl Sagan, Cosmos ).
The nature of Self is one such Unknown, and the innermost desire of many to secure during one’s lifetime to know all about one’s Self. This quest-this search for the knowledge of Self is both universal and eternal.
[Only Self remain to be searched....Rest all is in Google !!....Whatsup ]
The struggle to know this “ I “ which is able to stand against the entire burden of this creation, the “ Non-I “ to discriminate one from other, and nally to realise the true nature of “ I “, the Man—the true MAN( Purusa ) within the man has been eternal.
It is fully realised this Self ( Spirit ) is neither this physical body nor psychic mind—both being knowable and transitory. The Self ( Spirit ) is therefore something unknown and unchangeable.
“Focus on the events of your inner world rather than obsessing over the affairs of the external world.”
