Through the prism of yoga, pure light breaks down into a tool kit of techniques to help the individual reach their optimum unfolding and maximum potential. In the normal course of life, it is inevitable that people get unexpected and unwanted initiations into a variety of bodily ailments. It is imperative for any skilled yoga teacher to be able to guide their student when these health problems, whether acute or chronic show up.

  • Awareness of the breath and centering

  • Yoga asana for stretching and strengthening key muscles

  • Therapeutic adaptations to address limitations or concerns
