Yoga is changing your brain, and that can transform your life.
It’s an extraordinary time to study and practice at the intersection of yoga and neuroscience. Neuroscience research is exploding with insights about how meditation, an integral component of yoga, affects your brain. NeuroMeditation Institute Yoga teaches four styles of practice that affect your nervous system uniquely.

● Focus improves self-monitoring, mental stability, and brain brightening.
● Mindfulness teaches us to release, reduce judgement, be present.
● Open Heart increases empathy and gratitude; take a different perspective.
● Quiet Mind quiets internal self talk and promotes restful alertness, non-attachment.

This introduction will give an overview of the four styles of practice including gentle movement, breath work, and guided meditation for each style. Learn how to work with your nervous system for greater integration, peace, and resiliency.
