A complete certification to empower you to employ yoga's ancient practices and wisdom to profoundly impact lives — including your own.

Each week a new chapter of insight and practice — from the foundational understanding of how transformation actually works, through the precise methodology for creating healing, to the surgical application of yoga's practices, including Yoga Nidra.

Every session includes a live teaching, weekly on-the-mat practices, off-the-mat investigations, and personal coaching — so the learning doesn't stop when the live session ends.

The Curriculum
I
Session One

How Does Yogic Transformation Actually Work?

We start by answering the question that's too often left unasked: How — exactly how — can yoga create truly life-changing transformation? And how can we begin to use it, alone or in combination with other modalities, to create healing for ourselves and others? You'll leave Session One with a precise understanding of the transformation process — as well as the spiritual and scientific underpinnings of the practice.

This Week's Practice

Restoring the nervous system and connecting with our true Selves — beyond the body-mind.

II
Session Two

The Mathematics of Experience

Here, we'll explore how our personal experience of life is actually created — and spoiler alert: it has way less to do with what's going on in our daily lives than we've been taught. We'll unpack the scientifically verifiable process through which our thoughts and emotions come into being. And you'll learn the mechanics of karma, the positive and negative role of samskaras, and how to use ancient yogic principles to create profound healings.

This Week's Practice

A custom Yoga Nidra session, a personal samskara inventory, and daily investigations into how your own karma and samskaras are shaping your daily life.

III
Session Three

The Mechanics of Suffering

This is the session that changes everything. We go deep into how suffering is created inside the brain — through a hidden cycle involving attention, reaction, and emotion. You'll learn the exact conditions that create anxiety, overwhelm, depression and more — together with what it actually takes to interrupt that cycle at the source.

This Week's Practice

Discover insights about how your experience is constructed moment-to-moment, with specific tools to shift thought processes, soothe emotions, and elevate moods.

IV
Session Four

The Body: Mastering Somatic Interventions

We explore yoga's somatic practices — asana, breath, energy work — and expose one of the largest problems in the therapeutic application of modern yoga. In addition to the techniques themselves, you'll learn about the body's primary points of leverage and how to employ yoga, not just to soothe the nervous system, but to yield profound and lasting changes in our neurology.

This Week's Practice

A variety of yoga's somatic tools to soothe the body and mind, while recalibrating the nervous system to respond to external triggers with more grace and ease.

V
Session Five

The Mind: Constructing Cognitive Interventions

Session Five is where we slide into the cognitive arena — and learn to employ yoga to make some of the most significant gains in healing and transformation. We'll revisit samskaras — the stories, the habits, the deeply grooved mental patterns that run our lives — and learn how to create customized interventions to make lasting changes in the brain.

This Week's Practice

A series of samskara rewrite exercises used together with a special Yoga Nidra to make lasting changes in the brain and nervous system.

VI
Session Six

The Science of Yoga Nidra

We use all our previously gained understanding to begin our in-depth exploration of Yoga Nidra. You'll learn the seven tools of Yoga Nidra, how to stimulate brain-wave states to optimize transformation, the best practices for creating custom Yoga Nidra experiences, and how to combine this ancient practice with other modalities.

This Week's Practice

Deepening your own experience of Yoga Nidra together with delivering basic sessions using our done-for-you Yoga Nidra scripts.

VII
Session Seven

Teaching Yoga Nidra

Teaching Yoga Nidra effectively involves a wide variety of factors: energetic transmission, tailoring the environment, managing student challenges, and more. You'll learn how to deliver Yoga Nidra in a wide variety of settings and use cases with skill and confidence.

This Week's Practice

Creating your own Yoga Nidra sessions using your Modular Yoga Nidra Card Deck — and testing your understanding against our comprehensive self-assessment evaluation.

VIII
Session Eight

Customizing Yoga Nidra for Specific Conditions

The capstone session. This is where you'll learn to use the T.A.P.A.S. Transformation Process to customize the deployment of yoga and Yoga Nidra for the most common conditions — chronic stress, addiction, trauma, and healing from physical illness. This is where everything comes together.

Final Certification Exercise

Create a complete, customized Yoga Nidra session for a specific use case, record it, and submit it for feedback and coaching.
