A PRACTICE OF AWAKENING
YOGA STUDIO ROTORUA
New programmes of "Body Improvement"
come and go in the market place. Participants progress within
the mental models of the conditioned mind regarding fitness, body
shape or strength. There is enjoyment and health improvment. However,
we all experience how the universe of possibility and experience
shrink through attachment in a conditioned mind. Our ego and conditioning
are needed to function in life - to earn a living and protect
our possessions and children.
However, if the ego shell is thick and prison like
the conscious awareness can become very thick and limiting. The
doorway out of this prison is via understanding and training awareness
and perception. We benefit from learning to relate to our minds
rather than from it - that is tricky thinking about it.
Rather than a body "programme", the Yoga Studio offers
authentic yoga practice systemised to harness concentration and
mental adsorption in body work so as to explore the nature and
tendencies of the mind and its base energy consciousness.
This understanding allows us to see how attachments in our conditioned
minds and ego create excess suffering and internal conflict resulting
in excess body tensions, unbalanced movements and destructive posture.
We learn to view limiting and destructive mental tendencies.
