Yoga and Meditation
This program includes a combination of active yoga and meditation. Morning sessions are based on Hatha yoga and focus on physical body awareness and acceptance. Evening classes offer more meditation techniques with the purpose of emotional cleansing, calming down your mind, and developing virtues and skills.
Hatha Yoga
Many popular modern yoga styles arose from classic Hatha Yoga. Hatha Yoga means balance between the Sun (Ha) and Moon (Tha) energies, possessing the power to transform you into a more balanced and strengthened being.
Hatha yoga is an ideal starting place for people who are new to yoga. One of the more challenging aspects of a yoga practice is combining movements with breathing control, or pranayama. Hatha yoga works on increasing flexibility and strength, improving breathing and calming down the mind. Hatha yoga purifies the body in preparation for meditation.
Markandeya Balinese Healing Yoga
Discover your inner self through Markandeya Balinese Healing Yoga! This combination of movements, static positions, breathing, and meditations will help you reach a new level of awareness about all the blocks in your physical body.
Your body retains the memory of all your life experience, emotions of the past, traumas, and self-disconnection. Markandeya yoga is the best way to work on these memories and release whatever limits you. Practicing asana, pranayama and meditation is a challenging experience - how deep you want to delve into it is always your choice.
During the practice, you can experience a lot of resistance and tension, but passing through it will bring you to an inner world where you will meet with your soul, find answers to your questions, and discover your original personality. You will start to feel how your energy is moving, and you will understand that you are more than just a physical body. Attending Markandeya yoga classes and meditations will provide you with a deep spiritual experience you have never received.

Combining the transformative elements of somatic yoga, hatha, yin, and myofascial release, our practice offers a holistic approach to releasing tension from the soft tissues, enhancing flexibility, and promoting deep healing. With mindful self-connection to the body, you'll experience a profound sense of restoration, allowing you to fully embrace the restorative journey.
Ancient Sound Healing
The most beautiful and relaxing experience is waiting for you on a sound healing session.
Sound Healing is a powerful way to reduce stress and calm the mind, allowing you to sink into deep states of relaxation. The usage of different ancient instruments will trigger different emotions inside you. It will be your personal journey, that will give you awareness about your inner state and will help release deep subconscious blocks.
The practice of sound healing uses sound waves and harmonic vibrations that affect the body through different tones and instruments, including the human voice. These specific sounds help to harmonize our brainwaves through a technique called entrainment. Entrainment stabilizes fluctuating brainwaves by providing a stable frequency with which the brain can synchronize. By using rhythm and frequency, we can entrain our brainwaves and facilitate a shift from our normal brain state to relaxed levels of consciousness, which is where deep healing can occur. We typically operate in beta brain states and sound healing can move us into theta and delta brain states. These brain states are associated with the unconscious, deep relaxation and a connection to the universe.
Self-awareness
We all are playing the Game of Life. We are wearing different masks and showing a wide range of emotions.
Where is the original you?
What is serving you and what is draining your energy?
All answers are inside us, we just need to realize our own wisdom.
Self-awareness Game
Self-awareness games have been used for many centuries to clear up negative mental tendencies and develop a higher conscience. Playing this game opens the awareness of the mind patterns and allows one to change his life and destiny. It is not simply a game, but a transformative psychological and spiritual practice.
In just a few hours of play, you may learn MORE about yourself than you would learn during a long period of spiritual or psychological practice. You will find out where and how you are limiting yourself, you will expand your perception, and your consciousness, and you will discover and eliminate stereotypes, thinking patterns, and subconscious programs that constrain you.
During this game you will search for a deeper understanding of:
What is happening in my life "here and now"?
Where and why am I stuck?
What obstacles are preventing me from achieving my goals?
How do I change my life to have more clarity, awareness, and harmony?
What exactly and how should I change?
Who steals (takes away) energy from my journey of life?
Where to find the strength to accumulate energy to achieve my goals?
