About Yoganga Healing

I had been teaching a variety of yogic practices for many years around the world. I eventually began giving more philosophical lectures. The students were very engaged in these lectures, agreed with the content, yet there was still a gap between what they understood and how they were behaving. I watched this for over 10 years. So I began to ask myself, what was missing? People understood what to do, yet this was only on the intellectual level, how do we dive deeper, to make a longer ever lasting change in one self.

I began experimenting, discovering, meditating on this question. I came to the conclusion, that at this stage, I have not been able to enter the space where the problem has originated in the person. I was not able to allow people to experience the problem fully, it was only just thoughts; using the mind. What the students thought the problem was, and the reality was vastly different. People believe there issue is X, however when they enter deep inside themselves, they realized the actual problem is different.

Earlier in my career, I received my masters in Psychology, learning a variety of psychotherapy techniques. I realized the problem with many of these therapy techniques, is that they only work on the intellectual level. The client can go to therapy for many years with no true results. The real issue is not being resolved, the mind creates stories, we think and think, but were not able to penetrate the true issue.

So the question I asked myself is, how can I go deeper inside the person to experience the true issue at hand. I needed to find a way, for the person to enter a deeper state of consciousness. All practices which shift the consciousness from the waking to the deeper/dreaming/sleep state are helpful in this.

Yoga Nidra was the first practice I saw where people were moving deep enough, where they could feel and experience the real issue at hand. However, even in Yoga Nidra, people were not ready to relive and face themselves. Through more work, experience, experimenting, I found one can enter a deeper state of consciousness through the breath. When we use the breath as a medium, and enter internally, we can put the mind aside, and view the tension the body has been holding. The body expresses past tension in a number of different ways; tremors, habits, pain etc. All stresses of life, are absorbed in the gross physical body.

When the mind is put aside, the person has more clarity during this inner exploration, and can observe these stored emotions in a non-reactive, equanimous way. When we face ourselves, in a non-reactive, non-judgemental and equanimous state, healing occurs. Thisstoredenergyisreleased,andweallownaturetotake us back to our true being.

In order to work through our problems, we must re-experience these traumas in a different way. Instead of looking at these in a fractured way, we relax and can see this with greater perception, in totality. We take this greater perception, double up this discrimination, this awareness so moving forward, we can change our habits and look at situations in a different way. We learn to change our habits. We do not freeze, judge, contract, we live the life we should live. Typically at the end of sessions, people feel very relaxed, light and free. The mind is less fluctuated. Counseling and guidance are typically given at the end of the session putting the pieces together and providing tools to live a more aware, relaxed life.
