Personally, I believe that there isn't one ultimate style of yoga. For me yoga happens most effortless, when I practice in Nature and ideally together with Mother Nature. I then feel the unity and real meaning of the word "yoga" in the most subtle way and every fibre of my being is a natural state of yoga gifted by the Divine Mother.
Over time, you may explore various methods and discover one that resonates most deeply with you.
You might practice this style extensively as it has proven to help you navigate life with grace, ease and inner peace.
YOU will find what way to practice yoga works for YOU!
​
I have a particular affinity for Kundalini Yoga because it profoundly supports the spiritual path I have chosen to follow.
However, the ultimate path of the yogi is where all yoga paths converge into a unified whole.
YOGA means unity and KUNDALINI represents the energy that empowers each individual to transcend separation and experience an uninterrupted state of unity.
Yoga is a 24/7 practice that goes beyond the time spent on the yoga mat.
Keeping the body agile, the mind clear, the spirit uplifted, and the soul connected with the Source is fundamental for a holistically healthy and fulfilled life that allows us to experience harmonious oneness.

It's not about the duration of your yoga practice or how perfectly you can perform an asana (yoga posture).
What counts is the time you spend simply being in a state of yoga.
-
There is also no need to be concerned with how long or how often you meditate.
Linear time is a man-made concept that can trap us in illusion. Remember: only the present moment is real. -
It doesn't matter how many or what types of pranayama (breathing techniques) you practice.
What matters is the intention you infuse with each breath you take.
Let me ask you a question:
Are you aware of the mantra running in your mind and creating your reality?
THAT is what truly matters!
We all have mantras going and influencing us, both consciously and subconsciously—most of the day (and night) long.
The energy of every thought we think vibrates in our cells, reflecting our energetic state, and shaping our internal and external existence.
Examples of mantras might be: "I can't do that," "I am not good enough," "I am blessed," and "I live in abundance."
The mindful and correct use of purposefully chosen mantras is the most important tool Yoga has to offer.
Incorporating a transformative mantra like
"OM, SAT NAM, SHREEM"
into your daily yoga practice (Sadhana) can purify your mind, attain liberation, and help you to experience who you truly are.
​
"OM" is considered the primordial sound or vibration; it represents the essence of the universe and the fundamental sound of creation. It is a symbol of unity, consciousness, and the Divine.
"SAT NAM" translates to "Truth is my identity" or "Truth is my name." It signifies the recognition of one's true self and the truth of existence.
"SHREEM" is associated with abundance and prosperity. It can be translated as "Divine abundance" or "The energy of abundance."
This particualar mantra carries deep spiritual significance and is used to invoke specific qualities or energies in the practice of Kundalini Yoga.
Self-realization and unity with higher consciousness are the ultimate goals of yoga.
​
Kundalini Yoga is an excellent practice for awakening self-awareness and reuniting the"human you" with the "spiritual you." ​
Awareness is the active engagement of your finite identity (ego) with your infinite potential (higher consciousness).
Its unique style combines asanas, pranayama, mudras (finger postures), bandhas (body locks), drishi ( (eye focus), chakra activation, and mantras.
This ancient raja (royal) style of yoga demands physical and mental discipline. Its intentional practice can swiftly transform your emotions, calm a busy mind, and uplift your spirit more effectively and enduringly than other practices.
Kundalini, meaning “coiled up” like a snake in Sanskrit, refers to the dormant energy at the base of the spine. Through Kundalini Yoga, transformative energy rises and up the spine, energizing all the chakras and creating an overall sense of well-being and heightened awareness.​
