This highly acclaimed vinyasa yoga, breathing and meditation CD will awaken a deep awareness in subcortical areas of your nervous system, with special emphasis on the soft palate and brainstem. Even beginners will be able focus on these sensitive areas using a mantra called the Ten Stones. This CD will help you develop a sustained, uninterrupted concentrated focus on these powerful parts of your nervous system. The brainstem is what controls your state of consciousness as well as governing the key functions of heart rate, respiration, digestion and pain relief. This is the very essence of classical Patanjali Yoga.
The Ten Stones Mantra is in English, which adds to the effectiveness and power of this technique.
After that, the focused awareness is brought into the central axis (sushumnaa) that the yogis talked about. You will learn how to control your state of awareness through concentration and breath regulation.
Inside the CD jacket, you will find clues on the next steps of this practice after you gain entry through the brainstem. A follow up CD is in the works.
For Vinyasa Yoga lovers, there is a 41 minute (or 52 minute with warmups) safe and balanced yoga sequence you can use for home practice.
