Yogasanas - Align with the Cosmic Geometry (Wellington)

The word asana literally means posture. Out of the innumerable asanas a body can assume, 84 have been identified as Yogasanas, through which one can transform the body and mind into a possibility for ultimate well-being. Yogasanas are not exercises, but rather very subtle processes to manipulate one’s energy in a particular direction.

In an untrained state, the human body is a constant manifestation of various levels of compulsiveness. By consciously forming the body into a certain posture, one creates a conducive passage for energy flow that can elevate one’s consciousness.

Yogasanas are a way of aligning the inner system and adjusting it to the celestial geometry, thereby becoming in sync with the existence and naturally achieving a chemistry of healthfulness, joyfulness, blissfulness, and above all, balance.

BENEFITS INCLUDE:

• Relief of chronic health conditions
• Evolution of body and mind towards a higher possibility

• Observe silence when you come into the studio and until the class begins. It is a time to move out of your world of thoughts and come into the present moment and connect with yourself.

• Be mindful of the effect of strong perfumes on your fellow students.
• Remove watches and noisy jewelry.
• Leave handbags and personal belongings that are not required during the class at the back of the class or in your car.

• If you are ill, have a cold or fever, please contact the teacher and your doctor before attending the class.
