Why Take This Course?
Learn meditation as taught by Yogananda
Paramhansa Yogananda , the great Indian Guru, brought a simple, yet extremely powerful, process of meditation from India to the West. These techniques help us to go deeper into our practice and to develop a connection with the divine.
Learn to relax and live with calmness
The techniques you learn in this course will help you to approach life with calmness and clarity. Instead of reacting to daily challenges, you will learn to bring greater awareness to your thoughts, words, and actions. When challenges arise, you will have the tools to work through them.
Reduce stress, anxiety, and fear
Meditation techniques help us to cope with busy and stressful lives. By calming the nervous system and bringing awareness to our emotions, you’ll begin to find that you feel less triggered by anxious thoughts, more able to cope with stress, and less afraid of the obstacles that confront you.
First step on the path to kriya yoga
This course is the first step on the path of kriya yoga, Yogananda’s highest techniques of Self-realisation. If you are interested in taking kriya yoga, this course will give you all the foundational techniques, and you will go on to learn more later about preparing for kriya.
“Self-Realization means the realization that your true Self is not the ego, but God, the vast ocean of Spirit which manifested for a time the little wave of awareness that you now see as yourself.”
Paramhansa Yogananda
