Self Realisation Masterclass

To be conscientious is to know oneself. To be self-realized is to reach a higher level of self-understanding. In this course, we use “YOGA” knowledge in achieving self-realization. By understanding yourself better, you can achieve breakthroughs like breaking bad habits. You can break out of a circle of unhappiness. For example, you constantly trigger your partner or be overly judgmental. You harm your loved ones or meet the wrong partner. You also fail in jobs. Without this realization, you will keep on bringing your traumas from one relationship to the next. You will also constantly fail through your blindside.

Simply put, self-realization will empower you to make better decisions in life for yourself. It applies to everything from your career to your relationships. Ultimately, this will cultivate better relationships with those you love and work with.

The course includes 35 hours and we aim to focus on self-realization through yoga knowledge. Yoga means the “union of the mind.” The practice was cultivated to unleash the power of the mind. Simple practices and knowledge help in accessing a higher self. Dharma is commonly translated as “righteousness”, “merit” or “religious and moral duties” governing individual conduct. With the two merged, we aim to achieve a Union or an Organized Mind. We focus on achieving a righteous path just for you. It also includes 50 hours of self-practice. This cultivates self-discipline. It lets you reach deeper states within yourself. You can truly hear the inner child speak.

Self Realization Dharma Knowledge is deeply rooted in Yoga’s Eight-limbs of Yama Niyama translated into a modern adaptation. It is the perfection and result of the practices you are instilling into your life. You become conscious of your existence. You use the knowledge in your day-to-day life to help you through difficult situations with relationships, work, and family. Simply put, self-realization will empower you to make better decisions in life for yourself and ultimately cultivate a better self. If you can organize your mind you can achieve anything. The knowledge you gain from this course becomes wisdom. This wisdom aims to prevent you from suffering the same mistakes again. It’s time to invest in your mental health. 

This is a course of knowledge, it’s not therapy.

Self-Realization

Description:

This course explores the principles and practices of self-realization in relationship dynamics with self and personal development. Students will delve into the psychological, emotional, and relational aspects of the self and truly understand who you are. Focusing on healing and growth for individuals and couples.

Objectives:

• Understand the fundamental concepts of the relationship with the self. Through meditation and yoga, you learn to control the self through self-reflection and inner peace. You truly listen to the subconscious voices within you. You learn to answer the truth within. There’s no judgment,  only truth. Until the mind and heart align it will always be a torment and fight between mind and body.
• Analyze the emotional impact of the self and how it affects yourself and your partners. Understanding your triggers and effectively communicating with yourself is the first step before communicating with your partner. This understanding is not rationalized by the mind but rather, from the subconscious of the heart.
• What is your religion? Do you spend time reflecting? Even if you don’t have one, would you offend one? It’s crucial to have a belief system beyond merely rationalizing everything. This helps us understand that we are small and that there’s a much greater force out there.
• The power of manifestation. You can be and achieve anything you want in this world so long as you organize your mind. But the mind and heart need to be in sync to truly manifest it. Understanding the pressure points that drive you to make mistakes and commit sins is key. We can all pretend to be the perfect partner. Yet, if there’s no balance, the steam from this pressure cooker will blow up. It can manifest especially through alcohol and drugs, which some see as a release. Cultivating a life that will give you balance is key.
• Explore the practices addressing your blockages and promote healing. Blockages need to be recognized and dealt with one by one, it’s a lifelong process. 
• Death is inevitable and there’s no timeline for it.  You have to decide what is important to you and make it count. Live with no regrets, what are the regrets?
• Develop the power of love and compassion. It all begins with this, and your values, When this takes priority, you will stop hurting people and yourself.
• Create a plan to execute this life. Design your life. Decide who, what, when, where, why, and how you want your life to be. This will help you navigate and change. How much time are you spending at work, with colleagues, and friends vs. alone, partner, and at home? 
• Better each day.

Ahimsa Meditation by Gene is deeply rooted in the top Yama Niyama the Eight-limbed of yoga focuses. Ahimsa is non-violence. By setting this intention, we aim to access the inner child. We remove blockages through visualization to seek purification. Purification is removing blockages, blockages are traumas and triggers that inhibit you from becoming the person you aim to be. Often in life, the worst enemy we face is our ego. We can achieve anything we want if our mind is organized. If we don’t learn how to organize our minds, nothing can be achieved successfully. Additionally, we will not have mental health.

Dharma Yoga, which was created by Sri Dharma Mittra in 1975, focuses on the cultivation of love and compassion. He is one of the oldest living Yogis at age 85. Many well-known Yogis, like Jarred McCann, Dr Erin Rose Vaughan, and Talia Sutra, have studied under him. Sri Dharma is known for his Master Yoga Chart of 908 Postures. You see this chart in most yoga studios. Each asana is illustrated with a photograph of Mittra performing the pose. Dharma Yoga is a modern interpretation of classical Eight-limbed or Hatha-Raja Yoga.

Yoga Nidra calms the autonomic nervous system. It controls body processes occurring without conscious effort. These include heartbeat, breathing, digestion, and blood flow. This system also includes the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Melatonin is a powerful antioxidant. It can also help manage immune role, blood pressure, and cortisol levels and induce restful sleep. Yoga Nidra seemed to be more effective in reducing anxiety. The study also suggested that yoga nidra can reduce cognitive symptoms of anxiety. It can also address physiological symptoms.

Conscience sharing. To wrap up the practices and knowledge, we share our thoughts. We make a promise. We set an intention for ourselves for this year. Whatever mistakes we made up to this point, it’s time to forgive ourselves and make peace with ourselves. The practice here is to forgive and move on. We become better, more loving, and more compassionate for those we love. Through all the practices we did today, our heart chakra will be open. We are ready to open up and love ourselves and those around us. The result is that we will become better versions of ourselves.

In summary, this workshop will allow you to understand yourself better. It will help you to achieve breakthroughs like breaking bad habits. You will break out of a circle of unhappiness and allow yourself to be ready for the new year ahead.
