Seven Main Chakras :  Chakra are Sanskrit words known as "wheels." It is thought that our bodies contain several chakras, which are essential to the functioning of our existence. A yogi may gather energy from numerous levels of vibrations, including color, that are used in various sections of the body. Our bodies have large energy centers that are linked to key organs or glands that regulate other bodily components. Each of these major energy centers is known as a chakra. Here you will discover about the seven major chakras, as well as its details. 

​

Mudras :  Mudra are sometimes referred to as hand postures. Each component of the hand triggers a reflex reaction in a different section of the brain.  Mudra is a kind of self-expression that involves the use of hands, the head (eyes, ears, tongue, lips, etc.), posture, lock, and perineal mudras. Thousands of mudras are utilized in tantric rituals. In ancient times, mudra was performed for classis dance.  Here in Mandala  you will learn about yoga mudra and its importance. You will also learn how to apply mudra during meditation, pranayama, bandha, asana and other practices.

​

Bandha : The Sanskrit word bandha means to hold, squeeze, tighten or lock  and it precisely defines the physical motion required to accomplish these activities. A bandha is a yoga lock or bind that is used to guide and regulate the flow of prana (life force energy) to certain portions of the body. There are three primary bandhas in the body, as well as a fourth that connects them all: 1. Jalandhara bandha, 2. Uddiyana bandha, 3. Moola bandha, and 4. Maha bandha. They cleanse, eliminate impurities, harmonize and balance the self. Bandhas momentarily stop the flow of blood, thus when they are removed, there is an increase in the flow of new blood. You will be learning and practicing the  bandhas in details.

 

Mantra-Prayers: Mantra, often described as devotion, is not considered as a religion according to some yogis Prayers and yoga are not religious, same as water, air, sun, sky and earth have no religious.  Since yoga and bhakti are closely related, we chant to benefit ourselves, others and the environment. We chant every morning to begin the day in serenity, positivity and with a heart full of love. With a detailed translation of the mantra, our teacher also teaches how to chant in Sanskrit. The Sanskrit term mantra literally translates to "(to set free from the mind)" or "to control the mind." Mantras are sound-based physical vibrations that have stimulating impacts on both our physical and subtle bodies. Here, you'll discover different mantra (chanting) and how to perform them more effectively.

 

Meditation & It's Practice : Meditation is the practice  for mindfulness and self-awareness. Meditation helps on focusing the mind and eliminating distractions to achieve a state of calm and clarity mind. Through the regular practice of meditation, you can achieve  a deeper understanding of yourself and your surroundings. Meditation can be done  with mudras, bandhas and mantras for its effectiveness, creating a holistic approach to well-being. By offering a time to meditate, you can experience many benefits including stress reduction, improving emotional health with a greater sense of connection to the world around you. Learn and practice  different types of meditation and its teaching guidance methods in our  200hr yoga teacher training courses.

​

The Science of Ancient Cleansing   (Sat karma kriyas): The six cleaning acts also known as sat-karma or shat kriyas, which is an important  part of yogic practice. It is said that to be a true yogi, one must achieve success in these cleansing techniques. The word sat- karma comes from the two words "sat and karma" Sat means six  and karma means action.

It is always recommend  to study and practice these methods under the guidance of a qualified teachers to ensure safety and effective practice.

​

​

The Science of Breathing- (Pranayama): The most important aspect of yoga is pranayama because without breath, the body cannot survive. Understanding and managing the pranic process in the body are achieved through the practice of pranayama. Pranayama is typically understood to be the regulated inhaling, exhalation, and retention practice. Pranayama raises consciousness by suppressing or regulating mental distractions. Clears the mind and makes space for consciousness to flow freely. If done properly, eradicate all illnesses. Eliminate all obstructions that might prevent the prana from circulating properly.

Importance of Yogic Balance Diets : Everything we consume is spiritual food. Food, according to yogis, is the source of prana (life energy), which supports our body and gives us vitality and health.

Many common ailments, such as back pain, joint discomfort, and office syndrome, can be controlled via proper yoga practice. According to the Hatha Pradipika, Yoga is not historically intended for treatment. Essentially, treatment is intended for sadhakas who do asanas and pranayama carelessly and forcefully , as well  who have bad nutrition and an imbalanced lifestyle. Yoga practice is better for prevention than treatment. Yoga is for improving health and illness prevention, but it cannot treat completely some major diseases which are too late. Definitely yoga therapy can help before getting worst from the disease.  There is no doubt Yoga can heal physically, mentally and spiritually.
