Yoga At Work

Besides conducting Yoga Teacher Training Courses  in various parts of the world, we have long time ago introduced Corporate Yoga Training  programs in India, and it has been a great experience. We have introduced new methodology of training the employees by  integrating modern activities  and the concept of Multiple Intelligence and Experiential Learning . These activities have been developed by The Yoga Institute of Santacruz and tested with thousand of students . They are used for bringing about more body awareness and control, concentration, relaxation and make it easier the understanding of the  Yoga Philosophy  – through conceptual games. All that, of course, along with  traditional yoga asanas, pranayamas, kriyas and meditation . Our aim is to use all this technology to give a broader perspective to physical and mental fitness, taking in consideration of the modern day set-up of an office environment and functioning. ...

Karma Yoga - Work with the right attitude

The emphasis is on the attitude and on consciousness.Maintaining a certain attitude constantly leads to a corresponding awareness which again leads to being established in this awareness at the time. That is why being involved in work is qualified by the statement “a right attitude”.

Work by itself is not what is suggested. To turn this work into worship will require change in the attitude. The usual suggestions here are faith, duty, service and concentration.

This immediately puts the mind in a different state. There is a worshipful attitude, dedication and much spiritual gain. In fact one who has reached such state and remains all the time in this state can very well claim the highest achievement for himself, i.e., self-actualization.

Do it - Why do we go on talking about right and wrong; good and evil? Newton talking about his work said it is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Those who talk of right or wrong spend 99% in talking and 1% implementing. The Gita wants us to work 100% in the spirit of KARMA YOGA.

(This explanation above was a talk given by Smt. Hansaji (our Guru) in the Satsang (Spiritual gathering) at The Yoga Institute, Santacruz, India.)

Students working together with the spirit of Karma Yoga

In our Yoga Teacher Training Courses held in Thailand, Brazil and Bali we lay much importance on training  the students on the path of Karma Yoga. Especially the old students in our 300 hr Yoga Teacher Training Course get to learn in depth about this path by performing assigned tasks and duties with correct attitude (Bhavas) and with balanced state of mind. It is a valid path that can help a Yoga aspirant in his/her daily life by bringing a sense of joy, balance and content even in the ups and downs of life. It relieves a person from insecurity, stress, anxiety and depression.

Pranayama - By Shri Yogendraji

Pranayama is the controlling of Prana or the “life essence of the universe”. A great deal of misunderstanding, however, seems to exist in relation to the various practices of this science. Some call it the Science of breath, while some call it the control of psychic Prana . But the truth is that it is both: physical as well as mental. In Sanskrit, Prana literally means Life ; it is also supposed to mean Breath. It is the sum total of all cosmic energy. It is the vital force in our body that moves us to action.“From thought to the lowest physical force, everything is but the manifestation of the Prana ” (Swami Vivekananda). It is the “ potential energy which remains constant, no matter what changes take place around us; it is eternal and infinite ” (Tyndall, Fragments of Science). This is what the Yogis know to be, as Cosmic Prana . This all-pervading cosmic energy, when it becomes limited in a certain body is called the individual Prana or the kinetic energy (finite) that manifests...
