Yogasanas

Yogasanas are subtle processes that shape and align the body with the greater geometry of the cosmos. An asana is not a posture one merely holds — it is a way of consciously arranging the system so that a certain state of being becomes possible.

Taught in their classical form, these 21 asanas work on the physical body, the mind and the energy body together, creating the stability needed for meditation to happen naturally.
