Maharishi Yoga Asanas is a simple practice to refine the nervous system, settle the mind, and expand consciousness. Effortless attention, intelligent pacing, and deep rest are seamlessly woven into every movement.
This is Yoga beyond effort — a life-supporting practice that awakens vitality, restores balance, and connects us with our innermost self. Asanas are the perfect preparation for Transcendental Meditation. Dr. Paul Morehead is the Director of the online MS in Maharishi AyurVeda and Integrative Medicine.
He will show us the basic Maharishi Yoga Asana postures and explain their positive effects, which include:
- better digestion and sleep
- improved heart health and metabolism
- normalization of blood pressure
- easing back pain
- improved spinal mobility
- muscle relaxation
- development of alertness and power of discrimination
- better self-reflection
- improved concentration
- experience of inner calmness and peace
Dr. Morehead will also tell us about the online MS in Maharishi AyurVeda and Integrative Medicine — the only accredited Master’s degree in Ayurveda in North America. It is pioneering the integration of AyurVeda with Integrative Medicine, including modern medicine, Chinese Medicine, Osteopathy, Homeopathy, and Chiropractic.
