I have once again followed the call of yoga and this time it has taken me back to Goa, Arambol – to the same place where I had my first official yoga teacher training exactly seven years ago. I wanted to use my momentary independence to delve a little deeper into yoga and came across […]
Three ashrams- three very different experiences. One Ashram and another Ashram can be 2 complete different things. If you plan to stay in one for a while in India, you should know exactly what to expect from an ashram stay in India and then make the right decision. I have published an article on the […]
I remember very well, that I myself have never really liked partner yoga. Whenever the yoga teacher announced in his class, that we would now continue in partner work, I would have preferred to sneak out of the studio quickly. […]
Why everyone must have been in the Shri Jasnath Ashram at least once in their life! Yoga anytime, anywhere You can do yoga anywhere: in the studio, at home, on holiday – you don’t need a lot of space and equipment. A yoga mat is enough and your own yoga practice can begin! That’s what’s […]
“A guest post by Lisa, who started her trip to India with a trek in the Himalayas with Chalo! Travels. Lisa did a yoga teacher training at Shri Jasnath Ashram, a small ashram in Rajasthan where Chalo-Travels offers yoga and Ayurveda retreats and Sarah teaches as a yoga teacher. In addition, Sarah met Lisa again […]
Yesterday, the end of the six incredible weeks at Anand Prakash Ashram was celebrated with a ceremonial closing ceremony. I can’t believe that this intense and instructive time is actually over. In addition to my further education as a yoga teacher, I was also able to develop as a yogini and to experience this in […]
While the demands of my yoga teacher training were intense in the last four weeks, this intensity was again doubled in the 5th week. […]
Oooooohhhhmmmmmm, that was a week! On Monday we went directly with “empty stomach” for meditation at 5:20 am and then to the yoga class. For breakfast we had the infamous Kichidi with an extra banana for one last time. This brings the intestinal cleansing cum fasting cure from last weekend to an end. The following […]
About Kundalini Yoga, Kichidi, the Bhagavad Gita and Intestinal Restoration The days are passing very quickly. I can’t believe that the third week of the course is already done! Half of the training is over. The ashram has actually become my temporary home. I feel really comfortable and while I’ve been exhausted many times in […]
Second week of the yoga teacher training in Rishikesh So much has happened since last Sunday. It is a small challenge to describe the last week in words. I was allowed to spend my twenty-eighth birthday in a completely yogic way, tried to choke down a metre-long cotton ribbon and stared into my counterpart’s eyes […]
First week Today is Sunday, our day off and I actually have some time to reflect on the last week at the Anand Prakash Yoga Ashram and to share about my “Akhanda Yoga Teacher Training” while I sit in a nice café on the Ganges in Rishikesh. […]
After a long time, but again a guest post from me. This time on the blog of Yoga Vidya. Have fun reading. […]
In the meantime, yoga has become popular all over the world. Many of us have integrated yoga firmly into our everyday life and visit a yoga class at least once a week. Yoga feels good, relaxes and keeps us physically and mentally in balance. […]
Start the day with meditation It’s pitch black when I sneak out of my room at 5:20 am and walk into the yoga hall on the higher floor. The hall is already well filled. But there is only silence. I find an empty space in the back corner and roll out my yoga mat on […]
When I am at Shri jasnath Ashram in Rajastan, I regularly teach the village children in yoga. The 8 to 13-year-olds have a very different, everyday approach to yoga, because their upbringing is shaped by the Hindu religion and spirituality. In addition, unlike westernized teenagers, they have a very good body awareness – Chakrasana- the […]
