Mission Statement Here at Breathe True Yoga, our mission is to help connect participants to different modalities of meditation and yoga in order to raise their own consciousness and move towards personal enlightenment. We aim to offer authentic, eclectic and creative approaches to the process of awakening each individual. coque iphone Although we borrow from many of the sacred traditions, particularly those of Buddhist, Hindu, Christian and Native American Indian, we are non-sectarian in our teachings. We also believe that the most effective means to personal transformation is an experiential one. Thus we provide many diverse modalities in our workshops to create opportunities for self growth. coque iphone For example, when teaching about the chakra system, our techniques may include yoga, mantra, philosophy, visual art, dance, sound journeying, clowning and who knows what else? Here at Breathe True Yoga, the practices taught are well complimented with a clean diet and wellness programs that include hiking trails, swimming, and paddling the beautiful Little Mississippi River. Whenever there is a gathering of like minded people, the individual spirit becomes aligned with the Great Spirit. So come visit us and tap into your Greatness. Enjoy the stillness. Partake in the gifts of the teachings of our predecessors who teach spiritual discipline and truth. Take the opportunity to go deep into yourself; to rejuvenate your body, mind and soul. Be the dream and the dreamer. If this excites you, come and play! And remember, when you change yourself you change the world.
