When the mind begins to wander, a person can become very distracted. This not only makes it more difficult for them to deal with their everyday responsibilities, it can also lead to profound unhappiness.

A distracted mind is unable to focus on the present moment, making it difficult to enjoy anything fully.

Two of the most common mental disorders, anxiety and depression, are characterized by an inability to keep one’s focus on the present.

Excessive ruminating on the past is a common symptom of depression, while looking to the future with dread is the basis of anxiety.

Fortunately, basic meditation techniques can help individuals overcome these types of mental problems.

Sahaja Yoga was invented by H.H. Nirmala Devi in 1970. It is a form of ‘Self-Realization’ yoga based on the seven energy centers of our body, called Chakras.

Through meditation, the flow of cosmic energy in our body continuously increases, providing energy to these energy centers.

Meditation and Yoga have held hands since the dawn of civilization.

Having a complete understanding of both disciplines is essential for you to flourish in your spiritual growth.
