In a very simple but most effective way, Sri Aurobindo once defined Yoga in these words – “A change of consciousness is the whole meaning of the process of Yoga.”  At their most practical level, yogic practices facilitate balance and health, and thus help unfold our dormant potential.  They help us to become more aware of ourselves, of the various movements within our various parts – body, mind, emotions — and thus facilitate a greater degree of integration and connection. By this process of gradual self-awareness and self-discovery we attain greater self-mastery and become ready for a deeper self-realization.

To celebrate 5th International Yoga Day, SAFIC yoga class gave a demonstration on the morning of June 21. The enthusiastic and energetic group of students had put in a lot of sincere and hard work under the able guidance of their teacher, Ranjana Swain.
