What is Patanjali Yoga Therapy?

    Patanjali Yoga Therapy is a practice rooted deep in the ancient wisdom of yoga as outlined by the sage Patanjali. Underneath its physical exercises lies a comprehensive system of physical, mental, and spiritual growth developed through centuries of discipline and experimentation.

    Patanjali Yoga Therapy can be compared with modern physical movement treatments like physiotherapy, kinesiology, and fitness programs. However, it's crucial to understand that such therapies provide only half of the solution. The remaining 50% hinges on self-discipline toward one’s own personal development - what we could call the spiritual side of the practice. The role of a yoga therapist in this is to guide you on the yoga practices that suit individual needs and growth both in the physical and spiritual directions.

    The Philosophy of Patanjali Yoga Therapy

    Patanjali Yoga Therapy is anchored in the traditional teachings of Hatha Yoga, the ancient sect of Yoga that traces its origins back to the sage Patanjali around two millennia ago. This ancient discipline emphasizes integrating all aspects of yoga into one comprehensive practice to achieve optimal wellness.

    The main difference between Patanjali Yoga from other types of yoga is its specific focus on addressing individual health conditions and promoting healing through tailored practices, while other types of yoga may have broader applications for general well-being, fitness, and stress reduction without necessarily targeting specific health issues.

    Hatha Yoga uses many different kinds of practice in, including the:

    • Kriyas: mental and physical body cleansing methods.
    • Pranayamas: breathing techniques to control vital energy in the body.
    • Bandhas: energy locks in the body to prevent energy loss.
    • Surya Namaskar: sun salutations to gather solar energy.
    • Asanas: body postures to strengthen one’s mental and physical condition.
    • Dhyanas: meditations for deep mind concentration.
    • Mantras: Vedic chanting to transport the mind from a state of activity to one of stillness and silence.

    Our expert teachers utilize all these techniques in deep connection with the philosophy of Patanjali Yoga to help all aspects of healing the body. Combined with our other practices, yoga can help to balance one’s health and physical well-being, ultimately leading to a holistic state of balance.
