SUMMARY:500 Hr Yoga Teacher Training
DESCRIPTION:This 500-hour\, year-long course\, accredited by the Yoga Teachers Fellowship of South Africa and the International Yoga Federation\, is unlike any other teacher training currently on offer in South Africa. It is our intention to provide a course that is extremely comprehensive in all aspects\, deeply spiritual and which provides you with a well-rounded and in-depth knowledge of the eight-limbed path of Yoga. This is a very hands-on training course\, and you will be guided\, mentored and “held” in a space where your individuality is embraced and celebrated. The course is co-facilitated by Leanne Glanville and Ros Hinchcliffe and runs over a full year to allow it to be easily accessible and practical for everyone\, regardless of career or lifestyle. This will also assist you to absorb and assimilate the large volume of new information and to integrate it into your daily life\, thereby ensuring lasting positive changes. By the time you have completed The Sandton Yoga Lounge’s Teacher Training you will be firmly established in your own personal sadhana (spiritual yoga practice) and be fully prepared to confidently step out of the classroom and onto the mat as a yoga teacher and fellow light worker. You will be well versed in teaching not one but TWO styles of yoga – vinyasa and ISHTA.

SUMMARY:100 Hr 10 Day Yoga Nidra Teacher Training
DESCRIPTION:Yoga Nidra is the practice to transform the person who sees. During the practice\, techniques are used to withdraw the conscious mind and imprint new impressions to the subconscious.  The ordinary and intellect mind then follows suite. The subconscious mind is the storehouse of everything that has happened in our life\, positive or negative\, and holds every psychic scar of traumatic events we have been through. This creates our persona\, how we see and relate to life\, how we react to life and how we experience life. The subconscious mind does not know the difference between fact or fiction and takes everything that it is presented with as fact. The subconscious mind can be healed from psychic scars and traumatic experiences and our outlook to life can also be transformed by imprinting positive suggestions directly to it whilst in siddhi consciousness\, between the awake state and light sleep state\, by passing the conscious mind. It appears as though the person is asleep\, yet awareness is happening on a deeper level of consciousness. In this state the mind is extremely receptive and anything imprinted remains there. The language of the subconscious mind is symbolic pictures\, specific words\, which create feelings\, feelings are a frequency and are the language of the subconscious mind. \nOne of the most difficult aspects of changing ourselves is to put consciousness into our unconscious. The more we dig into the unconscious\, the more we have the possibility to transform ourselves. One way to access our unconscious is through Yoga Nidra. During Yoga Nidra we leave the waking state\, go past the dreaming state and go into a deep sleep\, yet remain awake. It is in this state that one is able to imprint healing suggestions directly to the sub conscious mind. The messages are suggested in the positive as though the suggestion has already occurred as the sub conscious takes everything as fact and with frequent repetition it becomes very powerful and remains there bringing about transformation to the persona\, how we see and react to life\, and how we experience life. \nPathways Academy of Life – 100 Hour Yoga Nidra Teachers Training is a 10 -day curriculum in the ancient art and secrets of yoga\, its traditions\, psychology\, philosophy and techniques to attain Self-realization. This training teaches one how to integrate the age-old teachings and modern-day life\, into a way of being\, bringing balance\, inner peace and fulfilment to life. \nWho this is for:  Those that wish to transform their life\, awaken and merge with their soul\, deepen their knowledge and experience of Yoga\, heal themselves and others through the study\, knowledge and wisdom of the Ancient Art of Yoga Nidra Tradition and have a passion to share this experience. \n

SUMMARY:100 Hr 10 Day Yoga Nidra Teacher Training
DESCRIPTION:Yoga Nidra is the practice to transform the person who sees. During the practice\, techniques are used to withdraw the conscious mind and imprint new impressions to the subconscious.  The ordinary and intellect mind then follows suite. The subconscious mind is the storehouse of everything that has happened in our life\, positive or negative\, and holds every psychic scar of traumatic events we have been through. This creates our persona\, how we see and relate to life\, how we react to life and how we experience life. The subconscious mind does not know the difference between fact or fiction and takes everything that it is presented with as fact. The subconscious mind can be healed from psychic scars and traumatic experiences and our outlook to life can also be transformed by imprinting positive suggestions directly to it whilst in siddhi consciousness\, between the awake state and light sleep state\, by passing the conscious mind. It appears as though the person is asleep\, yet awareness is happening on a deeper level of consciousness. In this state the mind is extremely receptive and anything imprinted remains there. The language of the subconscious mind is symbolic pictures\, specific words\, which create feelings\, feelings are a frequency and are the language of the subconscious mind. \nOne of the most difficult aspects of changing ourselves is to put consciousness into our unconscious. The more we dig into the unconscious\, the more we have the possibility to transform ourselves. One way to access our unconscious is through Yoga Nidra. During Yoga Nidra we leave the waking state\, go past the dreaming state and go into a deep sleep\, yet remain awake. It is in this state that one is able to imprint healing suggestions directly to the sub conscious mind. The messages are suggested in the positive as though the suggestion has already occurred as the sub conscious takes everything as fact and with frequent repetition it becomes very powerful and remains there bringing about transformation to the persona\, how we see and react to life\, and how we experience life. \nPathways Academy of Life – 100 Hour Yoga Nidra Teachers Training is a 10 -day curriculum in the ancient art and secrets of yoga\, its traditions\, psychology\, philosophy and techniques to attain Self-realization. This training teaches one how to integrate the age-old teachings and modern-day life\, into a way of being\, bringing balance\, inner peace and fulfilment to life. \nWho this is for:  Those that wish to transform their life\, awaken and merge with their soul\, deepen their knowledge and experience of Yoga\, heal themselves and others through the study\, knowledge and wisdom of the Ancient Art of Yoga Nidra Tradition and have a passion to share this experience. \n
