WEEKEND CLASSES/COURSES IN MEDITATION
Weekend or longer courses for beginners and intermediate students to Meditation will be held at Chaitanya School Of Yoga in Tableview. For people with little or no previous experience of meditation these courses provide a structured introduction, as well as strong methods in cleansing, energizing and concentrating the mind. They also provide an opportunity for people who have done other forms of meditation to explore the particular breathing mindfulness technique, with opportunities for discussion and individual progressive guidance.
The weekend courses include group practices, individual practice time for Sitting and Walking Meditation, Mantra Meditation, Dharana and Trataka, discussion, and one-to-one consultations with the teachers, regarding obstacles in reaching meditative states and methods of eliminating them, as well as giving new and higher directions for intermediate and advanced students in meditation. For people who wish to continue with the meditation practice, some contact with a group and a teacher provides support in developing meditation. CLICK HERE for complete information on this event.

Yoga Teacher Tips for Scorpion Pose
You need to build up arm strength and back flexibility before performing these kind of postures in class. If practitioners are practicing in a class without a wall they will be falling over. Even with a wall the back is vulnerable because of the force and weight of the legs. This pose should be done only in advanced classes. Instructions: 1. From Forearm Stand, ( or Shirshasana ) bend the knees. 2. Lift your head and bring your feet close to your head as you come in to a deep backbend. The knees will separate, but keep the toes together. Beginners: True beginners should not attempt this pose, as should not attempt Shirshasana. If you are comfortable doing Forearm Stand at the wall, try moving yourself a little bit farther from the wall. Then walk your feet down the wall toward your head. Advanced: Bring your feet close to your head. Remain in the final position for 15-20 seconds and return to the child pose position, rest keeping your head down for 1 minute before to stand up, breathing deep and long, but gently. Benefits: Energises Ajna and Shahashrara, Manipura and Muladhara.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF YOGA PRACTICE
Excellent toning of the muscles – Muscles that have become flaccid, weak or slothy are stimulated repeatedly to shed excess flab and flaccidity. But these enormous physical benefits are just a “side effect” of this powerful practice. What yoga does is harmonize the mind with the body and this results in real quantum benefits. It is now an open secret that the will of the mind has enabled people to achieve extraordinary physical feats, which proves beyond doubt the mind and body connection.
Improve memory, concentration, balance of mind, reduce stress - Yoga through meditation works remarkably to achieve this harmony and helps the mind work in sync with the body. How often do we find that we are unable to perform our activities properly and in a satisfying manner because of the confusions and conflicts in our mind weigh down heavily upon us? Moreover, stress which in reality is the #1 killer affecting all parts of our physical ...read more

QUOTATION OF THE DAY
I alone am, I have attained perfection, I am pure, I am the supreme, I remain always, I am He, I am eternal, I am pure.
I am the true knowledge (Vijnana), I am the special one, I am Soma, I am the all. I am the auspicious one, I am free from sorrow, I am consciousness, I am the impartial one. I am joy (to the devoted) and sorrow (to the careless), I am the friend of all silence. I am always of the form of consciousness and I am always of the form of Existence and Consciousness. MAITREYA UPANISHAD ( SAMA VEDA)
