Sudarshan Kriya

Sudarshan Kriya

The masterpiece of the "The Art Of Living" Course is a powerful
breathing-based technique called Sudarshan Kriya, or the healing breath.
(The practice goes by this Sanskrit name in whatever language the program is
taught throughout the world.) One of the breath's great secrets is that for
every feeling or emotion there is a corresponding rhythm in the breath.
Sudarshan Kriya incorporates specific natural rhythms of breath to release
stress and bring the mind to the present moment.

The practice is instrumental in creating a sense of harmony in the body,
mind and spirit. After the practice, participants commonly report feeling
calm and centered, with a clearer vision of the world and themselves.

Several independent studies on the numerous mental and physical health
benefits of Sudarshan Kriya have been published in international
peer-reviewed journals and confirm what participants commonly report.

As the cells of organs such as the heart, lungs, brain, blood, muscles and
bowel get deprived of oxygen, they start degenerating & disease slowly
starts developing.

Therefore, it is important to learn correct breathing,

*Return To Joy*

Our mind tends to vacillate between the past and the future. We are either
regretting the past or anxious about the future. However as we all know
living in the present moment is the route to joy. Our mind is such that we
cannot control it in a direct manner. We cannot force it to be in the
present moment. But we can influence our mind through the breath. "Take a
deep breath" is an age-old recommendation for relaxation.

The Art of Living course takes this effect of breath on our minds and
applies it in a very precise and powerful manner through the Sudarshan Kriya
technique. Practice of this technique can bring our mind effortlessly into
the present moment. As this happens, we learn the ability to reduce the
effects of negative emotions and return to our natural state of joy.
