*Greeting
"Sat Nam" is the "Bij" or seed mantra. It reinforces the divine consciousness
in everyone. It is used as a greeting, anytime, anyplace. "Sat" means Truth,
"Nam" means Identity - "Truth is my identity". This is used throughout the class
to assist in focusing the mind on the breath.
*TUNE-IN

Teacher within and receiving protection, guidance and healing
Adi Mantra - "Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo"
I BOW TO THAT DIVINE CHANNEL OF WISDOM
Ong -Infinite Creative Energy

*PRANAYAMA

*WARM-UP EXERCISES
Increases the flexibility in the spine and opens the meridians to the flow of
energy, and prepares for the Kriya and meditation
*KRIYA
A set or sets of one or more postures and exercises that work toward a specific
beneficial outcome. Includes the use of mantra, mudra, bhanda, pranayama and
mental focus. There are thousands of Kriyas, all with different effects.
*RELAXATION
Laying down in Savasana and relaxing the body, we totally let go of control
which allows the body to fully receive the benefits from the Kriya and prepare
for meditation. There may be a Gong Bath or Crystal Singing Bowl Meditation to
take you into a deeper state while enhancing further assimilation of the Kriya
and balancing the energy.Sometimes it may be a guided relaxation or just
listening to the sound current of mantras.
*MEDITATION
The purpose of yoga is to strengthen the body so we can meditate to achieve
higher states of consciousness. There are thousands of meditations for specific
purposes. Here is where the Infinite can talk to you.
*TO END THE CLASS
Each class ends by singing the "Sunshine Song" to close and bless the class
with this positive affirmation
"May the Long Time Sun Shine Upon You
All Love Surround You
And the Pure Light Within You
Guide Your Way On."
