Therapeutic Yoga Classes
Integral Yoga®
The style of Yoga I teach is known as Integral Yoga® founded by Sri Swami Satchidananda in 1966 (www.iyiva.org). It is a well-rounded and non-strenuous form of Yoga. Each class is 1 1/2 hours and includes Asanas (postures), Yoga Nidra (deep relaxation), Pranayama (breathing practices) and ends in a brief period of Meditation.
The Integral Yoga® class is structured and paced to lead students to a calm but alert state of mind, a fundamental quality of psychological health and well-being. This ideal state of mind is achieved through a deliberate balance of practices that are energizing and calming, with a balance between activity and rest, and an emphasis on focusing awareness in the present moment.
Ultimately, Yoga is a catalyst which evokes the body and mind’s innate potential to heal itself. From the Yogic point of view, healing energies are stimulated through the realization of a state of calm attentiveness. The overall aim of the Integral Yoga® class then is to uncover calm attentiveness, which, according to Yoga philosophy, is our natural undisturbed condition.
