Yoga Vida



THE HISTORY
The Barkan Method is a style of Hatha Yoga that originated from a lineage in Calcutta, India. It includes sequences of yoga postures practiced to stretch and strengthen various areas of the body. The practice brings vital balance and restores all systems to optimal health. Consistency will create a physical, mental and spiritual harmony that will be felt in all areas of the practitioner’s life.

EFFECTS OF THE BARKAN METHOD

The PHYSICAL : The yoga asanas are designed to work internally and externally. Internally, improvements to the heart, spleen, kidneys, liver, and intestines are realized through consistent practice. Externally, the joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments are all made stronger through The Barkan Method.

The MENTAL : As in all forms of yoga, the mind is strengthened through the discipline of The Barkan Method, which helps to eliminate stress, depression, anxiety, and other dysfunctional mental disorders. The Barkan Method helps to create a calming of the mind, quieting of the brain's chatter, and deep relaxation response.

The SPIRITUAL : As we strengthen the body and calm the mind, we open ourselves up for a transformational experience. Yoga was originally intended to be used as a tool to forget the body's consciousness, quiet the mind and transcend our limitations, allowing us the freedom for self-realization. This is the intention behind The Barkan Method.
