Surya Kriya

What is Surya Kriya?

Surya Kriya is a yogic practice that is designed as a powerful tool to activate the sun within oneself. "Surya" refers to the sun, and "Kriya" means an inner energy process. It is a dynamic form of yoga that combines specific physical postures (asanas), breath control techniques (pranayama), rhythmic movements, and inner visualization to harness the energy of the sun.

Surya Kriya is a complete spiritual practice that aims to balance and align the physical, mental, and energy dimensions of an individual. It incorporates elements of Hatha Yoga and is derived from the ancient science of Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation). However, Surya Kriya is a distinct and more intense practice that goes beyond the physical aspect and encompasses a deeper meditative and energy-based approach.

The practice of Surya Kriya involves a specific sequence of postures and movements that activate the solar plexus and stimulate the various energy centers (chakras) in the body. It generates a tremendous amount of energy, purifies the system, and strengthens the physical body. Through focused breath control and awareness, practitioners can experience a heightened sense of vitality, mental clarity, and spiritual growth.

Surya Kriya is traditionally taught as a comprehensive system by Isha Foundation under the guidance of Sadhguru. It is typically learned through an initiation process conducted by trained instructors. The practice is designed to be suitable for all levels of practitioners, and modifications are provided to accommodate individual needs and abilities.

The practice is taught with simple, guided instructions provided by an accredited Isha™ Hatha Yoga teacher, and can be practiced thereafter at home. Regular practise sessions are also offered at the studio.

    Yogasanas

    What is Yogasanas?

    Yogasanas refer to the physical postures or poses practiced in yoga. Derived from the Sanskrit words "yoga" (union) and "asana" (pose), yogasanas are a fundamental aspect of the ancient Indian science of yoga.

    Yogasanas are not just physical exercises but also serve as a means to harmonize and integrate the body, breath, mind, and spirit. They are designed to promote balance, flexibility, strength, and well-being at physical, mental, and energetic levels.

    There are numerous yogasanas, each with its own unique benefits and effects on the body and mind. Some common yogasanas include standing poses, seated poses, forward bends, backbends, twists, inversions, and balancing poses. Each asana has specific alignment instructions and variations to suit different body types and abilities.

    The practice of yogasanas involves holding the poses with mindful awareness, focusing on the breath and body sensations. It combines physical exertion with relaxation, promoting a deep connection between the body and mind.

    Yogasanas are typically practiced as part of a larger yoga session, which may also include breathing exercises (pranayama), meditation, and relaxation techniques. The aim is to cultivate physical health, mental clarity, emotional balance, and spiritual growth.

    The practice is taught with simple, guided instructions provided by an accredited Isha™ Hatha Yoga teacher, and can be practiced thereafter at home. Regular practise sessions are also offered at the studio.

    Benefits of Yogasanas

    • Increased Energy Levels: Yogasanas stimulate the body's energy flow and help improve circulation, resulting in increased energy levels and vitality.
    • Improved Flexibility: Regular practice of yogasanas increases flexibility and suppleness of the muscles, joints, and connective tissues. This can improve range of motion, prevent injuries, and promote overall physical comfort.
    • Better Focus and Concentration: Yogasanas require concentration and mindful awareness of the body and breath. Regular practice enhances focus, mental clarity, and concentration abilities.
    • Enhanced Respiratory Function: Yogasanas incorporate specific breathing techniques that improve lung capacity, lung function, and overall respiratory health. This can lead to better oxygenation of the body and improved vitality.
    • Weight Management: Certain yogasanas can support weight management goals by improving metabolism, stimulating digestion, and promoting better hormonal balance.
    • Mental and Emotional Well-being: Yogasanas have a positive impact on mental and emotional health. They can help reduce symptoms of depression, improve mood, and cultivate a positive outlook on life.
