Yogavision was set up to help people experience more balanced, peaceful and fulfilling lives through the practices of yoga, deep relaxation, affirmations and meditation.

Life for most of us is lived at a hectic pace. With technology and new products developing at a breakneck speed our senses are constantly over-stimulated and bombarded by relentless advertising and information overload. We are encouraged to think that we would be a lot happier if we had the latest piece of new technology, such as a newer mobile phone, car, digital camera and plasma screen tv.

Whilst having material objects can enhance and improve our lives we still need to have time to stop, slow down, and experience our own inner space; to rest and heal in mind and body. By slowing down our breathing and physical movements, we are able to temporarily switch off from the stimulus of the outside world. As well as releasing physical tension, we begin to let go of mental tensions, anxiety, worries and fears. The muscles begin to relax , the mind begins to quieten- we embark on a journey of inner peace and stillness, self-healing and regeneration.

When experienced on a regular basis, the effects of deep relaxation and meditation are cumulative. The more we practise the more we develop inner strength to help us through life's ups and downs. We are given tools and in turn become equipped to cope with the pressures of daily life.

By taking care of ourselves in this way, our relationship to ourselves improves as well as our relationships with others - we become more positive, trusting and loving.

Devapriya  

'During yoga and meditation the three elements of breath, body and mind are
calmed, and gradually they become one. It is only by these processes that
the oneness of body and mind will be achieved......we realise peace, joy and
ease, the first fruits of yoga/meditation practice.'
