Oriental Bangkok Introduces Yoga Program
HONG KONG, July 10, 2007. The newly opened Ayurvedic Penthouse at The Oriental, Bangkok has introduced an extensive range of yoga programs, from lively group sessions to one on one private sessions, to suit the specific needs of guests and yoga lovers.
The sessions are designed and conducted by resident Yogic Lifestyle Trainer, Neelam Khatri, who trained with "The Art of Living" organization in India. This world-renowned volunteer based NGO is active in over 140 countries, promoting stress relief and a peaceful and joyous way of living based on special breathing techniques.
Ms Khatri has extensive experience teaching yoga and conducting special workshops, retreats and programs for individuals, groups, children and corporate personnel. She has been actively associated with many projects of "The Art of Living" including time spent teaching yoga at The Oberoi Rajvilas, Jaipur, India.
Her sessions offer the wisdom and techniques of yoga in a detailed yet joyful way, and consist of Asanas (postures), Pranayamas (breathing exercises), Dhyana (meditation) and Yoga Nidra (yogic relaxation). "The Art of Living" teaches the Sudarshan Kriya, which, along with its accompanying practices, is renowned as time-honored way to relieve stress and promote health.
Yoga is an ancient wisdom for a healthier, happier and more peaceful way of living. It offers a multi-path approach to uniting body, breath and mind in awareness, ultimately leading to a blissful state of higher consciousness. A series of gentle and vigorous asanas promotes the well-being of the body, while emphasis is placed on techniques for nurturing the mind and spirit.
Complimentary group sessions are available every morning and evening for resident guests of The Oriental. Advance reservations are required for private sessions and customized programs. Please call the Ayurvedic Penthouse at +66 2 659 0434 to make reservations.
