With Swami Divyananda, C-IAYT
What is a thought? What is the mind? And what does it really mean to be “negative”?
In the science of Raja Yoga, thoughts are waves that rise and fall in the lake of the mind. The mind itself is an instrument — powerful, creative, but often restless. Negativity appears when these waves are clouded by fear, attachment, or misunderstanding.
In this workshop, we will explore how the ancient teachings of Yoga explain the nature of the mind, the root of negative thinking, and the practical steps to transform these patterns into peace, clarity, and light. Through awareness and yogic practice, you will learn how to guide your mind instead of being driven by it.
