About the Teacher

Rama Ramachandran is a yoga practitioner, yoga Teacher, and a Yoga Therapist who believes in unleashing the healing potential of an individual from within by making the daily yoga practice more meaningful and more effective. She started her journey in 2012, after wholeheartedly realised how Yoga Sadhana helped her go through a difficult phase in her life in a smooth way. She completed Teacher Training in Hatha, Ashtanga, and Vinyasa traditions. She is an IAYT Certified Yoga Therapist. She helps people lead a balanced and a fullfilled life. She believes every yoga practice should have a goal. For some, it is about reducing the physical pain, for some it is about improving flexibility, but for few others it is getting connected to something greater than themselves.

Rama has gradually moved away from teaching group classes to working with students individually with various health issues and teaching therapeutic group sessions. She believes in assuming personal responsibility to make yoga work for the individual by carefully understanding the current needs of the individual, evaluating the past medical and surgical history, choosing the tools and modifications appropriate for the individual, planning the practice according to the needs, and helping the person apply it effectively and integrate it into daily life. She has also written Yoga Therapy articles in a magazine of wide circulation.

What We Teach

  • We help women get personalised yoga sequence that they can practice daily to stay healthy and full of energy

 

Asanas

Every mental knot has a corresponding physical knot in the body manifesting as pains and discomforts.
A set of practices well chosen for the student’s current needs are taught to help the individual release the muscular knots in the body. Such a personalised practice not only help to stretch and strengthen the muscles, but make the joints flexible, relax the nerves, and also work on the functioning of the internal organs and endocrine glands maintaining the body in an optimum condition. Blood and lymph circulation is improved. The dormant energy is released resulting in vitality and radiant health.

Pranayama

Modern-day lifestyle and diet practices lead to stress and obstruction in the flow of prana shakti n the body resulting in metabolic dysfunction and various other ailments.

At “Gyan”, Pranayama techniques are guided by a certified professional. The practices help to regulate the life force of the individual. The various breathing techniques tailored to the needs of the individual help to utilise the lungs to the maximum capacity, improve the flow of prana, and purify the energy channels in the body. By regulating the prana, we control the mind and sharpen the intellect. The improved oxygen saturation removes fatigue and lethargy and prevents the individual suffer from stress-related ailments.

Mudras

Mudras are gestures used to redirect energy through and back into the body, which otherwise would normally dissipate out from the body. There are hand, facial, and whole-body gestures. They have both energetic and healing qualities. By applying light pressure to specific points in our palms and fingers by folding the fingers and holding the postures in a certain way, we stimulate parts of the brain that impact how we feel and how we think. Integrating mudras in our daily yoga practice affect the individual at a deeper level speeding the healing process.

Mudras also help us enter smoothly into meditative states and get connected to something greater than ourselves.

Relaxation practices

Relaxation is very important to achieve ultimate health.

It is during deep relaxation, our prana shakti works to heal the body by rejuvenating the cells and recharge the system. Our stressful life makes it difficult for us to relax and the body is stuck in the acceleration mode putting the system in increased wear and tear. Deep relaxation after appropriate asanas and breath work is very important in the journey of healing.

Mindful diet and Lifestyle Practices

Apart from Asana and Pranayama, diet and lifestyle modifications designed to the individual needs is very important to achieve overall healing.

Yoga advises on conscious eating and having a satvik, wholesome, living food as life comes only from life. Food is very much connected to the mind. Yoga teaches us that we are absorbing the emotions of a person who cook for us and it is easy to get into someone’s heart through food made with love. Everything we eat can be made into a prashad with high energy vibrations and everything we drink can become Amrit through simple practices.

We guide the individual with appropriate lifestyle modifications and daily rituals to help restore balance in the system and function with peak energy with a peaceful state of mind.

Positive affirmations and Meditation

Our thoughts create our life. Every thought can be our blessing to both ourselves and people around. Positive affirmations help us to accurately create thoughts of how we want our life to be in every aspect of life. Our resultant word usage and action will be based on the positive thoughts, which in turn will create our destiny.

At “Gyan” we help people learn the techniques of right thinking. Guided meditation is a part of every program to help the individual learn to look within and embark on the journey of self realisation.
