I AM Method: The Experience of Indivisible Happiness
Chandrakant Hiester

Yoga very simply means the direct experience of indivisible happiness. All of us are interested in experiencing happiness. And, we have all had what we refer to as the “experience of happiness” when it seems to be broken into happiness/unhappiness. This session reveals the direct experience of indivisible happiness, an evenness of mind. The experience of happiness that we all long for is, in fact, an evenness of mind in all situations.

 

I AM Method of Integrative Relaxation: Breaking the Momentum of Stress

Chandrakant Hiester
The first step towards genuine health and well-being is freedom from the effects of stress. Integrative Relaxation is a guided series of simple techniques that can be done lying on the floor or sitting comfortably in a chair. The combination of these simple techniques facilitates immediate access to a state of complete physical, mental and emotional relaxation. This deep state of relaxation is the entry portal into a state of consciousness where, with repetition, the causes of stress, tension, anxiety and fear can be effortlessly dissolved and resolved. The session also includes a twenty-minute Integrative Relaxation experience.

 

I AM YOGA: MEDITATION IN MOTION

I AM Method of Meditation in Motion is a unique yoga that starts from the inside out. We begin with an inner attunement to the innate intelligence of the vital life force, Prana. This inner attunement is your experiential guide. It prompts movements and physical positions that are uniquely appropriate for your body. The uniqueness of these sessions allows everyone to participate – from experienced practitioners to those who are new to yoga. These sessions focus on cultivating and maintaining a recognizable inner attunement of absorbed stillness while engaged in action, any action regardless of flexibility. With practice, this not only transforms ordinary physical yoga postures, but also the ordinary activities of daily life into a Meditation in Motion.
