Is Integral Yoga® ?

aspect of the individual. Here is a brief explanation of each of the branches of Integral Yoga.
Hatha Yoga Focuses
on the physical aspects through asanas (postures), pranayama (breath control), mudras, kriyas, yogic diet, and deep relaxation.
Raja

Bhakti
Yoga The path of devotion, by constant love, thought, and service of the Divine. Bhakti Yoga can be practiced by everyone.
All that is needed is faith and constant remembrance of God.
Karma Yoga The path of action and selfless
service. Serving without attachment to the fruits (or results) of the action.
Jnana Yoga The intellectual
approach. Through the knowledge of what really exists, that is, what is not changeable, one who engages in the Path of Wisdom
realizes Oneness with the entire Universe.
Japa Yoga Japa means repetition of a mantram - a sound structure
of one or more syllables which represents a particular aspect of the Divine Vibration.
