Samagra Yoga: A Better Way to Live

This Gallan's been planning to work on getting into shape for a while now, and decided the time was ripe to get started. And what better way to do it than yoga? There are quite a few yoga centres in Kochi, but one stands out in its holistic approach to the science. Samagra Yoga Centre, founded December 15th 2010 by G. Devan, Jaiji V.G., Sugandhi P.V., Dr. Rashmi Pradeep and Advocate Ashok Kumar, is unique in several ways. Firstly, it is a non-profit organization, fueled by its founders' passion for yoga. Not only does it offer extremely flexible timings, which allows clients to make appointments at desired times, but it also tries to ensure that yoga as a way of life benefits the client. It is a means to improve and uplift his or her life by enhancing the body, mind, psyche and spirit instead of simply being a way to stay in shape. When practised and taught in this way, the sessions here become less of a drudging chore and increasingly something to look forward to each day. It is also reputed for being the only yoga centre with an authentic instructor in the ever-popular Transcendental Meditation (TM).

While the benefits of yoga and meditation are acknowledged universally, many are still unaware of its lesser known advantages. Not only does it dramatically improve personality and allow you to maintain a calm and serene outlook on life, it also improves the condition of those suffering from asthma, diabetes, cholesterol, BP and other ailments. A previous customer, Casey says: "I was one of the first people to join when they started the yoga centre. I had just undergone a rigorous treatment in ayurveda but wanted something more to deal with my backache. They gave me individual sessions and ensured that the classes were tailored to suit my needs. I regularly practice yoga now and am thankful to Samagra Yoga Centre and the instructors there. "

The centre offers numerous courses other than the standard yoga course. This includes Reiki, Counseling, Dietary advice, Yoga therapy, Transcendental Meditation and Spiritual Retreats. So don't wait for tomorrow to change the way you live your life – embrace a life of yoga today!
