"...a union of body, mind and spirit
a...spiritual system of living
an immediate sense of calm
greater clarity and focus of mind..."
Yoga means union, the yoking, of body, mind and spirit. The purpose of yoga is to not only to end your body's pain, but to connect you to your own Source, the Self. It is a spiritual system of living, that restores harmony, balance, and perspective. The stress and hurry of modern living distracts us from this inner knowing, while our bodies get tighter and tighter. Svaroopa® Yoga specializes in ending pain easily with the spinal decompression called Core Opening. Your back pain and neck and shoulder tension will dissolve in the first class by releasing the deeper muscles closest to the spine.
Because most of the imbalance and unevenness in your spine that causes back pain comes from tensions deep in the hip joints and pelvic floor, we begin by relaxing the muscles at the tailbone, the pivot point of the body. These Core Opening poses form the foundation from which all other Svaroopa® Yoga poses arise. Gradually, as the body lets go and relaxes it’s tension, the mind quiets as well. Then long-term holding patterns in the body/mind dissolve, thus establishing you in more health, peace and vitality.
