Perceiving and unfolding the strength of the heart. Who doesn’t want to bond with themselves and life in love? Empathy and self-empathy can specifically be encouraged through the practice of physical and breathing exercises.
The latest research shows: The bond to the inner heart also encourages the health of the physical heart. In a society where cardiovascular disease is one of the most common causes of death, this yoga practice becomes a decisive health care factor.
But being in contact with our soul and dissolving old habit patterns is a fruit of the mindful dwelling with our inner self. The feeling of being in intense resonance with one’s self and also with other people grows during the carrying out of the exercises.
For the first time, the well-known yoga teacher, Anna Trökes, describes the meaning of the heart in yoga. The heart is the seat of our deepest identity. When we mean ourselves, we point to our hearts and not to our head or stomach. In this sense, the heart is our inner self. The unfolding of central characteristics such as goodness, benevolence or shared joy has a long tradition in yoga. Anna Trökes has put together the most effective meditations, breathing and physical exercises and recorded them on a CD. The meditations are very poignant and open the heart.
