The word Yoga is derived from the Sanskrit word “yujiâ€, meaning union. Yoga is an ancient practice that unites mind, body and soul not only through physical practice (asanas), but by following certain social and personal rules; as well as with the help of pranayama and meditation; and adherence to a plant based diet, with the ultimate goal of Samadhi – reaching a state of Enlightenment. With Yoga we can access our body, mind and spirit on different levels and can improve our physical, mental and spiritual well-being.
The average adult sits 6.5 hours per day. Back pain, poor body posture and chronic diseases are the results. For a healthy and long life proper body alignment is essential. Yoga asanas keep your spine young, flexible and strong and improves posture.
Including asana, pranayama and meditation practice into your daily routine can improve your mental health. Soon you will feel more relaxed in stressful situations and generally more resilient, reaching a state of mental clarity and calmness.
Forgiving yourself and others – a fundamental quality to live a fulfilled life. Living in the past and holding onto grief stops you on your way towards a happy and peaceful life. Special meditation techniques can support your self-healing process.
A wide range of Yoga practices provide a natural way to reduces anxiety and depression. Self-soothing techniques like Yoga Nidra lower symptoms of anxiety. Balancing and stimulating pranayama techniques can be implemented in depression therapy.
Both, strength and flexibility are the foundation of a healthy body. Unique combinations of asanas target physical strength and mobility, and build the ground for a healthy body that accommodates a healthy mind.
Knowing that you are neither your thoughts nor your emotions. Knowing that you are the consciousness that observes the mind. Knowing that you are the True Self. Cultivating a deep practice of Yoga brings you closer to your essence, your True Nature.
