The Mystical Road to Meditation
|
A Course in Preparation for Meditation For Teachers and Intermediate / Advance Practitioners
From the physical body, yogic awareness then moves on to the mental and emotional bodies, and this is where Yoga becomes a way of life: a way to cope, view and appreciate the ups and downs of everyday life. Purifying and harmonizing the mental and emotional bodies happens in two main ways: The first being in our inner world - meditation, and then the outer world - everyday life and conduct.
Meditative yoga techniques help give us the awareness of our mental processes and give us a way to step back and "witness" our mental and emotional patterns while we are sitting on our mat during practice and it is when we take these techniques of awareness and witnessing into the outside world, we really start to change and direct our lives towards living in tune with the Universe, rather than going against it.
Incorporating these techniques into living a Yogic lifestyle, whether embracing it fully or using parts of it here and there, one must acquire of a body of living knowledge that one can only achieve through first-hand experience. Through living in this state of awareness, we are able to change the path of this world from its current state to one of self-acceptance, acceptance of others and compassion for all.
This 15-Hour Course Will Include:
- Aiming for Spiritual Growth and Purifying One's Self on Physical, Mental, Emotional and Subconscious Level
- Striving for the Highest Level of the Subconscious Mind and Relieving Stress
- Chakra Awareness and Purification; Purification of Prana and the Nadis

"As an avid and experienced tennis player, I wanted to thank OM Yoga Shala
for the amazing Ashtanga Yoga classes. I have found my practice of
Ashtanga at the Shala to perfectly complement my tennis. Yoga has improved my core
strength, balance, mental calmness, and flexibility, all areas crucial to
tennis. I highly recommend the Ashtanga program at the Shala, simply amazing."
