The Ancient Way Of Yoga In Modern Life

starts Friday 22 june 2018 at 18:30

According to the ancient way of Yoga, we appreciate the human body as a sacred temple in which the divine energy of the universe rests dormant beyond our mind and normal state of consciousness. As Yogis, we use asana, pranayama, and other methodologies to awaken spiritually by becoming aware of this energy and by channeling it into higher functioning. This gives us health, peace of mind and spiritual awareness. The purpose of this workshop is to shed light on this ancient path in both theory and practice.

Daniel has followed this methodology for 20 years in order evolve physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. He teaches all aspects of asana, mudra, bandha, pranayama, and meditation as well as theory on how to live a yogic life in today's modern world. He has inspired many asana-oriented yogis to evolve their practice into a deeper consciousness-expanding experience that involves all aspects of Yoga science.

The workshop will teach you proper energy management through simple physical and mental techniques that can be followed by anyone. Therefore you need not be slim, young or flexible to join the workshop even if it is intended for yoga teachers and aspirants familiar with modern postural yoga.

Regardless if you are a novice, attended Daniel's previous workshops or are a teacher, this weekend will leave you with practical tools to inspire you and deepen your practice. It is open to all, but it is assumed that everyone can do a sun-salutation, some basic asanas and sit straight with crossed legs for 15 minutes.

Schedule:

There will be theory and practice in all sessions. Practice will include asana, pranayama, bandha, mudra, or meditation as appropriate to the subject covered.

Teacher: Daniel Strausser

The spiritual way of Yoga that Daniel shares has become a rare commodity in today's yoga scene. Daniel lived and practiced in the caves of the Himalayas and was initiated into an ancient brotherhood of Yogis by his guru in the early 2000's. Since then, he has studied Yoga, Meditation and Tantra under great masters in India and shares the essence of his research with beginners, yogis and senior yoga teachers throughout the world. For 10 years, he ran a yoga studio in his native Sweden, but since 2011 he lives in Chiang Mai whenever he does not meet his Guru in India or teach internationally. Go to Daniel's page.
