.: Aims and objectives
Exploring the Potential of Yoga in the Field of Mental Health
20-22 June 2008
A weekend In-Service Training course for yoga teachers at Launde Abbey, Leicestershire, with Swami Satyaprakash and Sannyasi Amarajyoti.
This residential weekend programme will be conducted in the tradition of Satyananda Yoga, using practices that are known to be particularly beneficial for adjusting mood and changing energy flow, thus enhancing mental health. We will look at practices to help manage anxiety, depression and examine the use of yogic practices with reference to psychosis. Both tutors have considerable experience of teaching yoga in the field of mental health – in institutions and in the community at large.

Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra
Come and join us in joyful singing and powerful
mantra chanting on the first Friday of each month, except August.
(If the first Friday in the month falls close to a Public Holiday, you may wish to check by calling Prem on 0121 444 2590 beforehand).
At 6.30 pm, we focus on suffering Beings everywhere,
naming those we particularly wish to remember, and together we chant
Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, an ancient & powerful mantra
for the relief of all suffering. From 7.30 pm,
we sing Kirtan together - joyful and heartfelt chants sung in unison
or as ‘call and response’ invoking a deep sense of connectedness
with our true nature.
Everyone is welcome to join us for either or both of these practices!
