Class
Format
This form of yoga
is powerful because it works on both the glandular and nervous systems.
It is simple to understand and do, all types of people and body
types and fitness levels can benefit from it. The physical exercises were
designed to give you a deeper experience
of yourself, so that a person can live a more focused and relaxed life
with greater health and clarity.
In fact, this style of yoga
is called the householder's path and is designed for people who lead busy
lives.
The main "kriya" (set of
Kundalini Yoga exercises) begins. Click
here for some common yoga sets. Each exercise usually lasts from 3
to 7 minutes. The kriya will rejuvenate a component of your mind / body
/ spiritual system. It could be a particular muscle group, your glandular
system, nervous system, organs or your mind. At the end of the kriya you
will be consolidated into a new and healthier physical and mental state.
Deep relaxation follows
the kriya. In Kundalini Yoga it is as important to relax as it is to move
the body. This is when your body is able to integrate the positions you
have just practiced and heal itself.
Meditation. Your body will be transformed
as a result of the kriya. Your mind and emotions will now become calm
and clear by directing your attention. During Meditation you will sense
and develop your "quiet mind" and your ability to concentrate.

Closing. After loosening the muscles
and clearing the mind, we close class with the following positive affirmation:
"May the long time sun shine upon you, all love surround you, and
the pure light within you, Guide your way on."
