Meditation: The Art of Focus
Trathaka - Mantra - Yantra - Pranayam - Asana - Meditation
Stress is the no. 1 killer in the world today as millions of people suffer from Anxiety, Overwhelm, Depression and poor Mental Health.
The antidote to a stressed mind is a focused mind - not chaotic, but organised. Sustained Focus is the art of Meditation.
Join us as we explore Ancient Wisdom practices that are Science-based in training Focus and eventually, our Awareness.
- Starting with Trathaka eye-gazing, Pranayama breath awareness, Mantra affirmation, Yantra visualisation, Dharana concentration and leading one to the state of Dhyana or Meditation.
- Along the way, we'll learn how Focus is the single-most important factor determining the quality of our everyday thoughts and actions - thereby our life itself!
Ongoing learning after the workshop includes free online Content & 1:1 Coaching.
