Toolkit of Yogic Techniques
The system provides a complete and specific toolkit for each of the Ten Bodies and for the integrated whole. It includes precise techniques in posture, meditation, breathing, and awareness to train, refine, and energize every “body.” Much like tuning a musical instrument with ten strings to achieve its best sound, this methodology develops measurable coordination and strength among the Ten Bodies, building mastery through technique and providing a direct path to reliable self-correction and peak performance.
Vocabulary
Ten-Body Yoga introduces a practical vocabulary for self-understanding and growth. It provides clear language to identify patterns, recognize potential, and apply the most appropriate techniques for alignment, balance, and improvement.
Process
- Identify the body or aspect that requires attention.
- Assess its state as balanced, underactive, or overactive.
- Apply the specific or sequential techniques in yoga, meditation, breathing, and awareness.
- Integrate the outcome with calm clarity, maintaining the ability to tune in and tune up as needed.
Developed by Yogi Akal in the 1980s, the Ten-Body Yoga System is a proprietary methodology taught exclusively through the International Centre for Yogic Arts and Sciences.
