Yogasanas
Postures to raise consciousness and manage energy
Yogasana is a series of powerful postures through which one can raise one's consciousness and manage energies. The word asana literally means position. Of the countless postures that the body can take, 84 have been identified as Yogasanas, through which one can transform the body and mind into a support for ultimate well-being. By consciously shaping the body in a certain position, a suitable passage is created for the flow of energies, which enables the raising of consciousness. Yogasanas are not an exercise, but a very subtle process for managing and directing one's energies in a certain direction.
In an untrained state, the human body is a constant manifestation of various levels of compulsion. By consciously shaping the body in a certain position, a suitable passage is created for the flow of energies. Yogasana is the process by which the human system is brought into coherence so that all elements are in harmony. Thus, a natural state of health, joy, bliss and above all balance is achieved.
Hatha Yoga comes from a deep understanding of the mechanics of the body and uses yogic postures or Yogasanas to enable the system to maintain higher levels of energy. By practicing this profound science, one can change and improve the way one thinks, feels and experiences life.
Sadhguru has structured the Yogasana process as a program that offers a comprehensive set of asanas that do not require any special physical skill or prior experience of Yoga. It is a very subtle process of changing the energy in the system, which in turn corrects physical and mental imbalances. Regular practice of Hatha Yoga not only improves health and well-being, but also significantly enhances the experience of kriya and meditation. At the Sadhguru Gurukulam school, Hatha Yoga is not taught as a physical exercise, but in its full depth and dimension, allowing the person to fully blossom.

In Other Words…
Have you ever watched a movie where astronauts go step by step through a detailed list and in a precise order ignite the various elements of a spaceship in order to finally launch it? Someone who doesn't have that list or doesn't know all the details of how a spaceship is built will never get that system going. Yogasanas are a way to fully activate this human system, the most capable system on this planet, so that all its capabilities become available to you and that every cell of the body bursts with health, joy and happiness. That is, so that the body, mind, emotions and energies flourish.
