Kundalini Yoga: Balancing Body, Mind & Spirit

The technology of yoga has helped man to achieve health, happiness and inner peace for over 5,000 years. Yoga originated in India as a means to maintain both physical and psychological well-being. Today, the focus is on the practical aspects of stress reduction and increased flexibility, but there is also an underlying spiritual theme as many people are looking within and using the meditation practices to feel centered and calm. The versatility of Kundalini yoga allows the student to focus specifically on the physical, emotional, or spiritual, or a combination of all three.

With the regular practice of Kundalini yoga, you can develop an incredible awareness of what is happening inside of you physically, emotionally and spiritually. As you increase this awareness, you increase control over how you respond to the world and the events around you. As a result, you acquire the ability to recognize many forms of stress and to make changes that will prevent the development of psychosomatic illness such as high blood pressure, heart disease, asthma and diabetes.

The word yoga derives its meaning from the Sanst word "yug", meaning yoke, to unite, or to bring together. Besides providing a system for achieving union and healing with others and a higher force, we are also given the tools to heal our own body, mind, and spirit.
