Energy, Chakras and the Endocrine System

Traditionally the chakra system is considered quite distinct from the glandular system: chakras are found in the subtle body (the pranamaya kosha), while the endocrine system is definitely part of the physical body (the annamaya kosha.) They are not the same thing, although some teachers do link them. Many years ago, in an anatomy lab lead by Gil Hedley, I listened intently to a correlation he drew between the energy levels purported to surround the chakras and the energies that stimulate various glands. It may only be a coincidence, but it is quite fascinating. I thought I would share this idea.

Yin Yoga Teacher Trainings

Yin is In! And, it is growing in popularity. Yin Yoga has been with us since the beginning of Hatha Yoga centuries ago. But since the early 19th century, yoga has become more and more yang-like in nature. Everything requires balance: yin completes yang. Yin Yoga is the balancing practice for the more active, muscular yang yogas. There are more and more teachers offering Yin Yoga today, and more workshops and opportunities to learn how to become a Yin Yoga teacher. If diving deeper into the yin-side of life is on your bucket list, there are lots of opportunities for you.
