Yogic Living: The Gift of Yoga

Let’s celebrate yoga—union—and all the ways it expands and uplifts us. The practice of Kundalini Yoga brings body, mind, and soul together as one. It has the power to bring the rich diversity of humanity together as one elevated consciousness of light and love.

June 21 is the United Nations International Day of Yoga. The UN notes that “yoga brings unity between mind and body,” and is “important in making healthier lifestyle choices and contributing to stress relief and peace.”

This month we are featuring kriyas showing the wide range of issues Kundalini Yoga addresses, including stress, vitality, sleep, prosperity, tolerance, healing, and more. We are truly grateful for and blessed with the wondrous gift of Kundalini Yoga!
