C Yoga and the Subtle Body

Catalog description

Term hours: 36 lecture and 54 laboratory. The subtle body refers to the energy systems of the body. In this course, we will look at what energy (prana) is, and how it is stored and is moved throughout the body as a form of information. We will consider principles such as: prana, nadis, chakras, as well as the koshas; further, we will approach the energy system as foundational for health, and as such, will look at foundational Ayurvedic principles.
