Description

THIS COURSE WILL TAKE PLACE ONLINE

The dates and times listed are required attendance for the online classroom.

The remaining hours will be mentored distance learning that the student can complete on their own time, so long as it’s completed before the due date.

  • These activities will be a combination of pre-recorded lectures/lessons, associated assignments and projects, break-out group sessions, and reading assignments.

In this course students will learn the complete Purusha Method and application of Therapeutic Asana as a means of understanding the subtle layers of mind, body, energy and consciousness. By bringing clients into specific therapeutic asanas we set the stage for learning practices that explore relaxation, letting go, witnessing what is, and connecting to parts of ourselves and spiritual source that promote entirely new paradigms of relationship with sensation, nature, and all realms of experience. This voyage of exploration and progressive mastery takes place by learning to arrange the physical body into positions that are restorative, relaxing, therapeutic and completely supported while also expertly navigating deeper and deeper pathways of consciousness.

Purusha Yoga Therapeutic Asana is a deep dive into the five layers or ‘koshas’ of somatic experiences, neuromuscular pathways, the five senses, and time/space/experience integration. The specific postures are just the starting point for layering mind and body, energy and consciousness, and eventual evolution of transformation on every level of the human ‘being’. 

The course includes specific techniques from Hatha, Tantra, Tibetan, and Raja, paths of breathing, guided meditations, mudra, intentions, nadi (sound) and integration of all 8 limbs. Specific postures are utilized from the practices commonly known as ‘Yin’, and ‘Restorative’  but taught by the philosophy, energy system, and science of classic yoga (not chinese medicine). Specific postures are utilized from the practice commonly known as ‘Restorative’ but taught utilizing integration of all 5 koshas and 8 limbs.  

In this course you will gain:

  • Mastery of 30 therapeutic asanas complete with progression, options, modifications, props and 5 kosha cueing.

  • Mastery of 10 pranayama practices that may be utilized to connect, control, direct and balance the mind and body.

  • Knowledge and application of 10 guided journeys that may be paired with therapeutic asana for specific goals.

  • Knowledge of how to select specific and appropriate asanas/sequences/practices for common concerns and diseases such as those related to trauma, stress, hearth, lungs, endocrine, auto immune, joints, and other specific systems and conditions.  

  • A depth of understanding of the various states and conditions of the mind, consciousness, purusha/prakriti, and gunas.

  • Mastery of integration and layering of therapeutic alliance tools and relationship skills that include communication, subtle touch, modeling and intuitive listening.  

  • Holding authentic and supportive space for your clients so that they can absorb the therapeutic benefits of the practice.

  • Evaluating and assessing a client’s progression, understanding how to adapt and adjust practices, feedback and evaluation to meet the specific needs of the client.

  • Knowledge of Yoga Nidra and its application to therapeutic 5 koshas asana practice.
