„When Sight is restricted, Vision becomes clear!“

Sanjeev Bhanot

The Sanskrit word, antastha, is translated to depth.

When we do Antastha Yoga, we slowly but surely reach and return to the deeper levels inside of us.

We have up to approximately 50.000 thoughts running through our mind daily. By using a blindfold to cover your eyes, we intend to shut out those noisy thoughts and distractions. We carry out the asanas (the word used to describe the exercises) in sync with your breath, making it easier to just focus on yourself and tune out any outside distractions.

Pratyahara – the conscious withdrawal from the senses.
During Antastha Yoga we create consciousness through the movements.

By closing our eyes we redirect our awareness into ourselves. Our endocrine system benefits from the asanas, we do. For one, it helps your body to form melatonin, when we use the blindfold. Melatonin is helpful for better sleep. It also strengthens your cells in defending themselves against free radicals and on top of that has an anti-aging effect on your body.

Sanjeev Bhanot has developed yoga sequences that all focus on different aspects of your consciousness, to not only strengthen the body but also increase your energy level.

Those that practice Antastha Yoga feel energetically charged and focused. It is a new way of Yoga, that follows the archetype of traditional yoga, where we find health and balance through moving inwards discovering our very own peace.

I am a certified Antastha Yoga teacher. I am pleased to accompany you on the journey to yourself.

Bhagavad Gita: „Yoga is the Journey of the Self, through the Self to the Self“…

YOGA CLASSES

Yoga nidra is a technique used to wind down and relax. It is meant to improve the quality of life and heighten the general feeling of overall happiness in the life of humans. This technique was developed to aid practitioners of yoga nidra on their quest of transforming their lives into something more meaningful.

Stress and anxiety we carry around everyday deprives the mind of its serenity. Our mind and soul can rest during yoga nidra in the same way our body does when we go to sleep.
Our life is never as relaxed as we would like it to be. We are more “online” than ever before. When we are stressed and overwhelmed, it’s difficult to calm down and relax. This impairs our good night sleep – either quality or quantity.
It’s been said that one hour of yoga nidra is as relaxing as four hours of sleep. Yoga nidra affects our brain waves, which has long-lasting effects in our daily lives. The practice of yoga nidra slows down the frequency of our brain waves. During the day we are in beta wave frequency, which means we are very active, think a lot, attend meetings, accomplish our daily tasks with deadlines to follow. That’s quite normal, but if the beta waves are high, we experience stress and if they increase extremely we might experience anxiety. Besides mental and emotional stress and anxiety beta wave frequencies have physiological effects like a high adrenaline levels and increased stress hormone levels (cortisol). This can cause a less restful sleep.

What happens in the body during the practice of Yoga Nidra?

Our brain frequency eventually shifts from beta waves to alpha waves, which are much slower in frequency. This counterbalances and we become calmer and more relaxed, but are nonetheless completely alert. In this relaxed state it is very easy to wind down, to disconnect completely and to be fully present in the Here and Now. Once we are fully relaxed and our brain waves are at alpha state, our immune system improves which reduces the stress hormone levels and leads to a lower blood pressure.
Yoga nidra even brings us deeper into the theta wave frequency. During theta state, we are in a very light subconscious sleep, like a trance or hypnosis, which we quite similar experience when day dreaming. Our senses are withdrawn from the external world and our focus is within.

Yoga nidra won’t replace eight hours of a good night sleep or relaxing moments during the day, but it’s a very efficient method to change our mental and spiritual condition: from anxiety and stress to calm, balance and clarity.

This relaxing yoga practice helps us to fall asleep much easier and to improve our quality of sleep.

Yoga in the Office

If you want to do something great to your employees, give them the opportunity to participate in a 45 or 60 minutes yoga session during their lunch break or any suitable time during the day.

With this generous offer your employees will be protected against stress and other illnesses, yet become resilient to outside stressors. Yoga promotes concentration, improves focus and productivity. In the long run this means a “win-win situation” for your employees and your company (higher performance of your employees and job satisfaction).

Due to extensive office work, we are sitting too much and don’t move our bodies sufficiently. The consequences are a stiff neck, back pain, headache and sometimes even migraine. These physical complaints can be relieved with mediation, breathing techniques and yoga postures. In some cases they might even disappear completely.

• Relaxation and meditation to wind-down
• Better posture
• Strengthening core and back muscles
• Inner balance and tranquility
• Better quality of life and joy of life
• Better performance and productivity on the job

Stress makes people sick. Stress related to work followed by back pain, is the second largest health problem in the European Union. For absences due to illness and sick employees the German economy has to pay tremendous amounts of money.
