Every week-end, The Ashram offers Sri Sri Yoga, a complete yoga program for you - one that nurtures the mind, body and spirit. The program, designed by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, typically involves fast paced warm-ups, followed by standing, sitting and lying down Asanas (Yoga postures) – the pace becoming gradually slower and meditative. Benefits are immediately felt – tense muscles become relaxed, the mind becomes calm, attention improves, and a quiet joy like a hidden stream opens up. MEDITATION AT ASHRAM
