We all know that what Yoga teaches us is good for us, but sometimes we find the 'yogic lifestyle' of good diet, regular practice and calm a little out of reach. This is an exciting workshop as it brings together, the 'why it is good' of Yoga and the 'how to' of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) to help you move towards a more holistic You.

We will introduce these two highly effective personal development systems in tandem showing how they can work together to help you with your day to day living.

The workshop will begin with a light physical Yoga practice, suitable for all and voluntary. This will be followed by an introduction to the NLP and Yoga systems. We will then explore how some of the famous Niyamas - personal observances - of the Patanjali Sutra's Ashtanga system, can be approached using various NLP techniques. For example, Yoga advocates purity of the body, while NLP helps you to give up any addictions that may hinder your progress. Throughout the day we shall be mixing theory with practice, so you shall be trying on everything you are taught as we go. (Please note that this is not a physical Yoga workshop, the morning sessions are the only time asanas will be performed.)

Yoga is not only a practice to benefit the physical body, the Yoga system can enter every facet of our lives, helping to enrich them and giving us the tools to live in a more harmonious way. The NLP tools taught on this course offer a very useful insight into how we can powerfully integrate these teachings into our lives with greater ease.

This is a very interesting workshop for those new to Yoga, and experienced Yogis alike as it offers a modern angle to ancient teachings. There are no prerequisites for this workshop.
