HAPPINESS PROGRAM (previously known as PART 1)
"Existence is a fact, Living is an Art." - H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
The Art of Living course features a unique and powerful breathing technique, the Sudarshan Kriya , which is traditionally understood to use specific rhythms of the breath to eliminate stress, support the various organs and systems within the body, transform overpowering emotions and restore peace of mind.
How to relieve stress with Sudarshan Kriya?
Nature is replete with various rhythms and cycles - day follows night, night follows day, seasons come and go. Similarly, there are biological rhythms in our body, mind, and emotions. When these rhythms are in sync, we have a sense of harmony and well-being. When stress or illness upsets the rhythm, we experience discomfort and discontent and feel upset and unhappy.
“We need to do a cleansing process within ourselves. In sleep we get rid of fatigue, but the deeper stresses remain in our body. Sudarshan Kriya cleanses the system from the inside. The breath has a great secret to offer.”
- Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Combined with other breathing and meditation techniques, knowledge about the laws governing one's mind, and skills that help deal effectively with negative emotions, the course offers individuals tools to help deal with the day-to-day stresses of life, thereby promoting a better quality of life and increased happiness and peace.
This course is central to all other courses offered by the Foundation. It is conveniently spread over six sessions and also includes yoga, stretching and relaxation exercises.
