About Yog Sadhana

How to bring essence to your Yoga practice ?

As Yoga Lovers we can at times lose the connection with what inspired us in the first place, the spark that used to fuel our yoga practice with enthusiasm and joy. If you are new to Heartfulness, you will add the last limbs of Patanjali's  Ashtanga Yoga to your personal practice with Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi.

Sometimes we need to pause and bring clarity to our commitment, we need to feel the support of a like minded community to rejuvenate ourself with a new energy and a shared vision, in order to transform our yoga practice into a real Yoga Sadhana where we can go deeper into the discovery of our own essence.

The Heartful Yog Sadhana is a 7 day residential course dedicated to Yoga and Meditation Lovers to experience the 8 limbs of the traditional Ashtanga Yoga of Sage Patanjali through the lens of Heartfulness practices. 

This deep experience of what Yoga really is will infuse enthusiasm, joy and inspiration in all participants. 

The course is located in a special environment, away from the tumult of daily life, where the nature and the spiritually charged atmosphere combine to nourish all the aspects of your being.

Through the practice of asana, pranayama, Heartfulness meditation along with the study and chanting of the Yoga Sutras, this course will give you time to experience, reflect and imbibe the yoga practices and philosophy as a whole and  connect you to the essence of Yoga.
