"When the breath wanders, the mind also is unsteady. But when the breath is calmed, the mind too will be still, and the yogi achieves a sense of balance. Therefore, one should learn to control the breath." — Hatha Yoga Pradipika

9 days of Breathing Awareness · Pranayama · Yoga Nidra · Live from Rishikesh, India.

Modern stress doesn't respond to willpower. The body's fight-or-flight system — once a survival reflex — has been hijacked by notifications, deadlines, and endless screen time. You cannot think your way out of chronic anxiety. But you can breathe your way out.

This 9-day live online course guides you through three carefully sequenced stages: correcting how you breathe, using that corrected breath to calm the mind, and finally entering the deep restorative states of Yoga Nidra and meditation. It is the only course of its kind streaming live from Rishikesh — not a self-paced video library, but a real teacher observing you, speaking to you, and adapting to you in every session.

Three stages to inner stillness

STAGE 1

Breathing Awareness

Day 1 - 3

Correct the breathing inconsistencies that are feeding your stress response. Maximise oxygenation, release control, and experience a first glimpse of mental stillness through breath alone.

Three sessions of 1 hour each

STAGE 2

Pranayama

Day 4 - 7

Use your corrected breath as a direct control dial for your mind and emotions. Gradually advance through breathing techniques that cleanse the body, balance thought, and achieve a settled, positive state of consciousness.

Four sessions of 1 hour each

STAGE 3

Yoga Nidra & Meditation

Day 8 & 9

Enter conscious deep sleep — a profoundly restorative state documented to reduce cortisol and reset the stress response. Drift systematically into meditation and the quietest layers of self-awareness.

Two sessions of 1 hour each

Who this course is for

Chronic stress sufferers

If your nervous system is constantly on alert — tight chest, shallow breath, racing thoughts at 2 AM — this course is the reset it has been waiting for.

Poor sleepers

Yoga Nidra is one of the most evidence-supported tools for reducing sleep onset time. If you lie awake with an overactive mind, this will be a revelation.

Anxiety and burnout recovery

Specifically designed with post-Covid complications and high-pressure lifestyle challenges in mind. Gentle, progressive, and trauma-aware in approach.

Meditation beginners

If you've tried to meditate and can't switch off, this course solves that problem by building the correct respiratory foundation before silence is attempted.
