Learn how you can practice a meditative form of yoga-even with a typically Western gymnastic yoga session going on around you. Learn how to find your meditation posture. Develop the specific combination of strength and flexibility required to maintain it effortlessly. Perhaps most importantly, learn the Figure-8 Energy Breath-a breathing pattern you can use to supercharge your asanas and your workouts, and start you on the road to energy flow meditations. It's all in Bench Yoga, volume 1 of the Subtle Energy Yoga series.
This is yoga for you!
Bench Yoga is a perfect blend of meditation and yoga that anyone can do. If you can sit in a chair, you can do it. If you can sit in Lotus Pose, you can still benefit from it. And the ancient tradition of a sitting bench can help you get from one to the other! Make Yoga Easier
Not everyone can get down to the floor-or get back up again. Not everyone can do the asanas (poses) without support. But everyone can sit! That's where the Yoga Bench comes in. Sit straight, meditate, progress to Full Lotus
Your Yoga practice should make it possible to sit long and sit strong. Why? To meditate! It's always been the goal of Yoga. A bench can help you develop your capacity to sit effortlessly and comfortably. Connect with an Ancient Tradition
All over India there are pictures and sculptures of gods and ancient gurus sitting on a bench, a tree stump-even the back of a cow or tiger! Typically, they are sitting with one leg up, and one down. They knew something! Eric Armstrong is reinvigorating that tradition with a Yoga and Meditation practice built around a sitting bench. It just may be the most important of your Yoga practice! Improve your Yoga/Meditation practice
- Beginners: Gentle yoga anyone can do. Don't let age, weight, or injuries hold you back. If you can sit in a chair, you can do this!
- Experts: Accelerate your progress. Strengthen your asanas. Build to Lotus.
- Everyone: Enjoy a meditative energy-flow practice. Raise chi. Meditate! Need a break? Meditate! Enjoy a perfectly upright, perfectly balanced, perfectly comfortable posture.
- From yoga to meditation.
- From meditation to the sublime experience of internal energy.
- Meditation and internal energy flows open the door to joy and happiness.
- They are the key to a connection with the divine-the unending source of inspiration and love.
