"YOU
ARE THE ARCHITECT OF YOUR LIFE, YOU DECIDE YOUR DESTINY"
- Swami Rama of the Himalayas
Our vision is
that of helping people transform their lives in all its aspects through
teaching yoga and meditation. Yoga asanas are taught with emphasis on
mindfulness and self-observation. Yoga performed with mindfulness allows
one to refine the body and its movements, while learning to live in the
present. Scientific research is now echoing what sages have maintained
for millennia--- living mindfully and in the present is the finest way
to live. The art and practice of meditation is taught to individuals as
the central means of growing both in the interior and exterior worlds.
We offer programs that are individually designed to teach yoga to persons
of all ages, offering classes for both individuals and families. Yoga
classes are specifically designed and offered for beginners, intermediate,
advanced students, and families. Yoga classes are also offered for physically
challenged or mature adults with physical limitations. The Center offers
classes in meditation for all levels. Personal consultation and instructions
are also offered for individual needs and interests.
We have a Wellness
Center which offers programs in healing and wellness therapies. The therapies
include a full range of massage and aroma therapies. These programs allow
individuals to achieve a balance of energies and to undo the emotional,
mental, and physical wear and tear caused by daily living.
Through its
Lotus Yoga Teachers Association, The Center offers teacher training programs
at 200 and 500 hour levels. The teacher training programs are Yoga Alliance
accredited.
The Center offers
special classes on spiritual, holistic and wellness subjects. The Center
offers retreats within the Chicago area with traveling spiritualists and
teachers.
The Center has
a book store which provides publications on a variety of topics concerning
yoga, meditation and living. Bookstore also carries personal/spiritual
jewelry and aids for yoga and meditation
