The
practice of yoga is a journey into the self and will deepen and
en-richen your life on all levels. Through yoga we experience
increased energy levels; good physical health; develop mental
clarity and focus; emotional calm; self-awareness as well as peace
within.
Yoga practice gives us ‘tools’
to live fully with the understanding of who we are and what our
higher purpose is in life. As we become physically strong through
the practice of yoga postures we also become mentally strong with
increased ability to maintain focus and concentration. We strengthen
on an emotional level and are more equipped to deal with life’s
highs and lows where problems that once seemed overwhelming become
much more manageable. Through turning inward and connecting with
our self we develop a relationship with our true self. From practices
of finding stillness within, we find a connection with our higher
spiritual self and ultimately live life more in-tune with our
higher purpose. As we strengthen on all levels we are more equipped
to live the life we choose. As well as we become more flexible
physically we become mentally more flexible, less fixed and hard-headed;
emotionally we become more open, less protected, more forgiving
and loving of our self and others.
Yoga is an individual practice that is unique
to each individual, as we are all different and live different
lifestyles, the yoga practices we need to maintain a healthy body
and mind vary from person to person. There are many different
techniques and disciplines in the yoga path including asanas,
the physical postures; pranayama; the breathing techniques; dharana;
the practice of developing concentration and dyana: meditation
and many more. Whether you first discover yoga through the postures,
the philosophy or through meditation, you will be enriched with
personal insights and revelations.
