TRIGUNA YOGA SCHOOL IN RISHIKESH INDIA
Triguna Yoga School provides a space in which determined students can learn and practice yoga to balance the three gunas by using different tools as naturopathy, yoga asanas (postures), pranayamas (breathing techniques), dhyana (various Meditation techniques), yogic cleansing techniques and lifestyle.
Until our three natures are not aligned and balanced, any kind of disease in body or mind we have to suffer. Suffering happens when these three natures are not in balance. Once active and passive forces are balanced the third guna starts arising, which is wisdom or Intelligence. In Triguna Yoga we teach students according to the scientific knowledge of balancing the three natures of a human being. Every person is suffering from different imbalances (for example depressive feelings and tiredness or an overactivated mind and energy).
Triguna Yoga teaches yoga in a very traditional way. In the Yoga Teacher Training Course you learn how to overcome an imbalanced nature by using Indian traditional yogic ways. You will learn about the functioning of different yoga asanas (postures) and how to use them for mental health. Through the practice of some asanas our energy level, mind patterns and habits can be changed.
Our Techniques
Yoga is a mind and body practice with a 5,000-year history in ancient Indian philosophy. Various styles of yoga combine physical postures, breathing techniques, and meditation or relaxation.
ASANA
Students will gain extensive knowledge on yoga postures and will increase their physical strength, inner strength and naturally their flexibility. Some asanas are connected to certain mind patterns and throughout the training this body/mind connection will get more clear in many ways.
