Year 1 Curriculum (2016)<\/p>\n

According to the World Health Organization, “Chronic diseases cause increasing numbers of deaths worldwide.” Diabetes, heart disease, and strokes are among the top 10 causes of death. Yoga therapy can have a significant impact on these lifestyle related chronic conditions. During Year 1, students focus on the connections between physical systems, stress, trauma and chronic conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Thank you Niroga and 2017\/2018 graduates for the transformative experience.\u00a0 Very grateful to have had this journey and to witness so much goodness in people’s hearts – there are a lot of negativity these days but when you witness those with the following intention, we can’t help but to feel their light brighten our horizons and warm our hearts.\u00a0 That’s the real strength, strength of our will, our resilience – it’s not just about flexing our muscles physically:<\/p>\n

SEVA – Seva is a Sansrit word, translates to “selfless service”.\u00a0 It can also be referred to as Karma Yoga.\u00a0 A person who engages in Seva, a random act of kindness, is a Karma Yogi.\u00a0 It is work performed without expectation, recognition, or repayment.<\/em><\/p>\n

I am still not there but … it’s a long journey that takes a lifetime and then some – it’s said that life is short but eternity … is not.<\/p>\n
