Pranayama is a Sanskrit word that is a blend of prana and Yama. Prana means life energy, and Yama is the control. It is known as the process to control your breath. Practice is essential for your physical and mental health. During the pranayama process, you need to follow a specific inhalation sequence, and you need to hold your exhalation and inhalation. Practice frees you up from all the disturbances, whether it is emotional or mental. When you regularly practice pranayama, you can find positive changes in your body.
You can perform pranayama alone as a single class or practice yoga. Pranayama is beneficial, but when you blend it with other activities, you can explore other benefits; the ultimate objective of pranayama is to help you build a connection between your mind and body while supplying enough oxygen to your body and removing all the toxins.

Syllabus
We start this one month long yoga journey with a fire ceremony according to the traditional yogic culture.
Tantra yoga kriyas are some tantric breathing and sound with yogic postures, mudras, and bandhas. Tantric yoga kriya meditations awaken our sleeping potentialities. These techniques used to be hidden methodology. Triguna Yoga is offering some of these important techniques to their students in the Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh.
Yoga Nidra meditation is a guided meditation technique that helps and directs you in a conscious state of sleep. Yoga Nidra is a state of existence of the yogi during the meditation which goes from wakefulness to sleep and then comes back to wakefulness. It highlights the presence of stages of transitions associated with different states of the mind. Shortly, you can say this is the state of conscious sleep. It is the easiest and effective meditation to purify the black edge of our unconscious mind.
Using mantras, sounds with the rhythm for meditation is the most ancient and effective tool. Mantra provides us a crystallized state of mind and the state of beyond mind, into the state of true being.
The power of the Mantra meditation lies in the way you control the flow of energy through the various organs. You will see this in the program as one way to improve the favorable effects of meditation. When you meditate, you open the energy channels, starting from the base chakra located at the base of our spine.
Each of the chants is associated with a specific organ. One mantra we use is the all-powerful AUM sound. This mantra sounds like the bees and it raises the inner base chakra by stirring it.
Unlike Yoga Nidra where you can achieve samadhi or total peace in all the organs of the body, here we stimulate them so the metabolic activities become augmented. This is found in Nyasa, where Sanskrit mantras remain placed in specific organs of the body. By stimulating specific organs, you can get rid of ailments and cure infections.
The other big advantage of using the mantra is that you become free of repetitive thought. Through deep meditation, you can go behind the thought and understand why and how you get it in the first place. The emotional upheaval we experience comes from negative thoughts like pride, greed, and anger. But, they last only for 90 seconds at a time. When you chant a mantra, you are voiding the mind for that crucial period when you suffer emotional disturbance. This helps block the drain of energy.
According to Yogic terminology our life force, the dormant energy which is sleeping into the root chakra at the base of the spine, is called kundalini. Until kundalini is sleeping a person has to live into his minimum conscious state. Once the kundalini power wakes up and starts moving upwards human achieves the higher state of consciousness.
Various methods of meditation are there which is helpful to wake up kundalini power. We provide the best atmosphere and methods to teach and practice kundalini meditations.
You will learn about the deeper meaning of the correct breathing techniques and develop knowledge about how you may use them in yoga asanas and how it can improve your life. Changing breathing patterns will affect mind patterns and bring balance in body and emotions.

Testimonial
My experience with the 100-hour YTT at Sammasti Retreat in Rishikesh was nothing short of magical. As someone relatively new to yoga, the teachers were incredibly patient and supportive. I especially appreciated the spiritual depth – chanting by the Ganga, early morning meditations, and insightful philosophy sessions. The location is serene, surrounded by nature. I left feeling more connected to myself and inspired to continue my yoga journey.

Sammasti Retreat offers an incredibly authentic and immersive experience. I completed my 200-hour YTT in Rishikesh and was deeply impressed by the quality of teaching, the daily structure, and the balance between physical practice and inner work. The teachers are traditional yet approachable, and the food was fresh and perfectly aligned with a yogic lifestyle. I now teach in Berlin, and I carry the wisdom of Rishikesh into every class I give.

The 300-hour advanced teacher training at Sammasti Retreat was a deeply transformative journey. I had already completed my 200-hour training elsewhere, but this program took everything to the next level. We explored yoga therapy, subtle anatomy, and advanced adjustments in such depth. The surroundings in Rishikesh are spiritually charged, and the daily schedule allowed for real self-discovery. I recommend this to any teacher wanting to evolve in both heart and technique.

I joined the 100-hour YTT in Goa during a backpacking trip through India, and it was the highlight of my journey. Sammasti Retreat in Goa is peaceful, clean, and just a few minutes from the beach. The classes were well-structured, and the teachers had such warm energy. I gained a solid foundation in asanas and philosophy without feeling overwhelmed. A perfect introduction to the yogic path.

The 200-hour YTT at Sammasti Retreat in Goa was a dream come true. Practicing yoga while listening to the waves in the background created the perfect learning environment. The teachers were supportive, knowledgeable, and passionate. I loved how the curriculum balanced strong physical practice with meditation and yogic philosophy. By the end of the course, I felt physically strong, mentally clear, and ready to teach. Merci, Sammasti!
