Hatha Yoga & Meditation
Mainly caring for the well-being and general balance of human beings, Yoga refines its therapeutic nature by deepening its study with science and modern anatomy.
We know that its practice, par excellence, must respect the body and meet each person’s needs. This is undoubtedly an ideal tool for staying physically, mentally and emotionally healthy and a great health care complement to any alternative or conventional therapy/regime. For greater personal benefit, it is essential to know how to adapt and follow a regular plan focused on your individual and specific characteristics. Yoga classes are relaxing sessions that are accessible to all practitioners. In these sessions, we mainly highlight the practice of gentle physical exercise (ásana), breathing (pranayama), relaxation (yoganidrá) and meditation (dharana and dhyana).
Some of the techniques used in practice:
Mantra: vocalization of the sacred sounds of Yoga
Bandha: contraction of plexuses and glands to channel energy
Shat karma: purification techniques Asana: body dynamics
Yoganidrá: relaxation Mudrá: energy seals
Pránáyáma: capture, retention and distribution of vital energy
Meditation: expansion of consciousness
