I Want To Take This Course But...

Will this practice improve my health?

Yes, of course! Regular practice of the Sudarshan Kriya™ is known to improve sleep, boost immunity, and lower stress and depression levels. You only need to read these testimonials of people who have benefitted from the workshop. Be sure to let your teacher know your ailments beforehand so they can give you the best and most customized experience!

Can a four-day online workshop really change my life?

Life can change in a moment. A moment with a loved one or a lost moment of awareness while driving a car can both be life-changing. A “Eureka” moment can be life-changing not only for you but also for the whole world. However, more than changing your life, this workshop equips you with tools to change your life yourself. In these four days, you’ll be learning the Sudarshan Kriya™, a widely researched technique adopted by millions globally. Those who have practiced it have reported life-transforming experiences.

You will also have free lifetime access to follow-up sessions, and a global community of mentors. You can also enroll for advanced programs of the Art of Living. Your journey has just begun.

Are there any side-effects to this technique?

An undying smile is the only side-effect! 🙂 The Sudarshan Kriya™ is practiced globally by millions of people every day with documented health benefits. It is absolutely safe to practise our techniques. If you have a medical history of asthma, high blood pressure, heart problems, and back pains, we will guide you differently during the session.

I have no stress. Why should I still join this workshop?

If you’re not stressed, great! You’re living the best life. But consider this: Do you start saving money only when you’re running out of it? Or start exercising only when you’ve lost your health? No, right? So how about building those inner reserves of resilience and strength for times when you could need them? But hey, it's your call. You could wait till you are stressed and this workshop will still be around to help you.

Why do you charge Rs 3000?

Those who have taken this workshop have recommended we charge more. This is because apart from teaching you essential life skills, your donation funds many service projects in India. For instance, sending over 1,00,000 tribal children to school, reviving 70 rivers, empowering 4,20,000+ rural youth with livelihood skills, and lighting 700+ villages with solar lamps. That said, you are free to donate more.
