Learn Nithya Yoga

Yoga as we understand today is mainly associated as being a set of physical postures we perform to keep the body healthy and the mind clear. Of course there is nothing wrong with people maintaining a regular practice of yoga to enjoy health benefits and wellbeing. However, for practitioners out there who want to understand the deeper meanings of yoga and who believe much more can be experienced through yoga, Nithya Yoga has arrived.

Initially, most may assume that Nithya Yoga is just another 'new' system of yoga surfacing in our ever booming yoga market. In fact, Nithya Yoga is the most ancient system of yoga as originally expressed by Patanjali. Patanjali's Ashtanga Yoga was the system originally designed by the great sage to prepare the body and mind of a yogi to receive, sustain and express the energy of Enlightenment. Preparing the body and mind of the practitioner is the primary purpose of Nithya Yoga. Health and well being are simply side effects.

Nithya Yoga brings the practitioner into the deep awareness that any movement if practiced with a strong intention can be yoga.

 

'I am not here to add movements to your life. 
I am here to add life to your movements.'
- Nithyananda

 

Yoga is an intense enthusiasm in uniting the body, mind and being and experiencing the state of nithya ananda (Eternal Bliss). This intense enthusiasm or this harmonious integrated state of yoga can be experienced by any practitioner in a Nithya Yoga class.

A Nithya Yoga class beautifully blends a contemporary dynamic meditation called Nithya Dhyaan, asanas (postures), pranayama, mudra and gratitude relaxation. Whether it be health and well being, mental clarity and peace or to experience the state of yoga itself, as a teacher of Nithya Yoga, you can help your student experience one or all of these.
