Benefits of a Yogasanas Starter Course?
Having over 12 years experience of practicing multiple daily practices, I know what it is like. Especially when you work full-time and on top of that having a social like and family engagements. The biggest problem is the practice can fall off very easily and then when it is a long practice, its much harder to get back.
The Yogasanasn is one of the longer (if not the longest) practice that Isha offers. Though there is very good reason for that as well. Sadhguru (Founder of Isha Hatha Yoga) wants to bring classical yoga back to its full glory, for what it was always meant for. The practice of Hatha Yoga, though is using the physical dimension of the body, was always doing it for the purpose of accessing the subtler dimensions.
The Classical Yoga Approach to Yogasanas?
As we are so engaged with the world around us, more so the fact we are always distracting ourselves in the modern era, our awareness has suffered enormously. The awareness is the biggest factor if you want start getting in touch with subtler dimensions so in Classical yoga, we really take our time over every posture so it is no longer an asana but a Yogasasana.
Though, practically speaking, how do we fit all this into a daily schedule? Well, it is possible but you need to be able to commit to it and start feeling the benefits. So taking the practice in one shot can be an enormous toll if you are not ready. Both on the body and in terms of finding the time.
The Yogasanas Starter course teaches you the first part which is very manageable in incorporate and start experiencing benefits. Anytime you practice a Yogasana sequence, it must always be in the correct order and a complete sequence otherwise if can make the energy body disjointed. Here is a simple and complete sequence which will not leave you disjointed.
It’ll also help prepare you for the rest of the sequence if you feel that your body needs to prepare a little bit more. The main thing is you can see if you can get just a half hour or less of practice into your routine. Making it a more effortless process. Plus by doing the practice it is possible to wake up easier as the body can start reducing gate amount of sleep you need just by the practices you learn here.
"There are various levels of doing asanas. You can practice asanas just physically, or more deeply, being aware of the breath, sensations, reverberations..." - Sadhguru
If you Want to Learn the Full Sequence, Why not Take the Package?
If you know you want to learn the whole thing but go step by step then you can commit to the full thing and guaranteeing a saving. With this, you can attend the Completion course when ready or if the completion course is not available, you can attend the full weekend course if you wish as well without having to pay more.
The Completion course will cost £115 flat fee and will be two morning sessions and will be scheduled according to demand post the starter workshop.
What Happens After the workshop?
After you start the practice, you start the journey into your home practice. If you’re happy with having a shorter sequence then you can continue with that and you can benefit from it too. If you want to move onto the full sequence or have taken the package then we recommend, within 1-2 months as an estimate of when to learn the rest of the practice. This is just a guide as you can take it as and when you feel you are ready.
Once you complete the the learning of the fuller sequence then you will get extra sessions to dive into the practice and support you as you go on and keep you on track. After support is also available through email and other means if you have any questions or doubts after the workshop.
