Kriya Yoga circulates vitalizing breath around key energy centers of the body (72,000 Nadis), balancing the body’s life force and creating calmness of the mind and nervous system. Goals that can be achieved through our continuing workshops include: higher concentration and joyful living in the present moment, increased physical energy, deeper and more relaxed sleep, more patience and love in your relationships, and the elimination of psychosomatic diseases (migraines, muscular pains, high blood pressure, insomnia, etc.).

Kriya Yoga is one of most powerful and well-respected lineages of yoga dating back to its founder Kriya Babaji Nagaraj who lived some 1800 years ago. The Kriya Yoga meditation is a comprehensive system of breathing and meditation technique designed to enable a practitioner to achieve internal peace, as well as address the alignment of one’s body and soul. Through various breathing exercises, Kriya Yoga meditation concentrates on accessing the subtle currents of life energy (known as prana) in the spine and brain. By continuously moving the life force up and down the spine and through 72,000 subtle passageways, one is strengthening the flow of spiritual energy within the body.
