Shat-Karma (Detoxification Course) Teacher Training Certification Course

Hatha yoga, as portrayed in the early Yoga Upanishads, was comprised of the Shat-karmas. It is proved accurate and scientific. Shat represents “six” and karma signifies ‘action’; the Shat-karmas comprise of six groups of cleansing practices. The point of hatha yoga and, in this manner, of the Shat-karmas is to create harmony between the two noteworthy Pranic streams, Ida and Pingala, along with achieving physical and mental purity and wellbeing.

The Shat-karmas are additionally used to control the three Doshas or humors in the body: Kapha, mucus; Pitta, bile; and Vata, wind. As per both Ayurveda and Hatha yoga, unevenness in the Doshas will bring about sickness. These practices are followed before pranayama and other higher yoga rehearses with a specific end goal to filter the body of impurities and to guarantee safe and effective advancement along the spiritual path. All these techniques are taught in the Yoga program at the Karuna Yoga, training center in Bangalore, India.

These effective strategies are never meant to be gained from books or instructed by amateur people. As per the custom, just those taught by a master may instruct others. It is fundamental to be personally trained in the matter of how and when to practice the shat-karmas, taking into account the limitations and requirements of the concerned individual.  If you have any doubts in your mind, Karuna Yoga, teacher training will take care of all your concerns regarding the matter.

In spite of the fact that the purification and reinforcing effects of shat-karmas might be therapeutic, this is not their primary purpose. Shat-karmas are practices to enhance the strength of yoga professionals and to awaken and direct the energies in the body, mind and deeper mind. Individuals experiencing any therapeutic condition, who wish to use any of these practices, ought to look for the guidance of a skilled instructor. Karuna Yoga, shat-karma training in Bangalore is designed on the basis of such principles. The water used in these practices should be pure. If necessary, use an ultraviolet filter or boil the water for a few minutes and then allow it to cool to the required temperature.
