Traditionally available only to select groups of yogis, Surya Kriya is being offered by Sadhguru as a comprehensive spiritual practice that is ideal for the hectic pace of today's world.
"Surya" means "sun", and "Kriya" means "inner energy process". It is a gentle, slow-paced, 21-step process and is a way of aligning yourself with the sun, the basic powerhouse for this planet. All life on this planet is solar powered, including yourself.
Surya Kriya is an ancient, potent yogic practice that raises the solar heat in the system. It also balances your energy channels, leading to stability of the body and stillness of the mind.
Benefits of practicing Surya Kriya regularly:
- Boosts vigor and vitality
- Balances hormonal levels in the body
- Improves posture and balance
Agility Level: Intermediate
Ages 14+.
