Understanding different perspectives and knowing political views of media outlets can allow a more balanced and full picture of media consumption. However media bias has been ever growing and can lead to manipulation and  mistrust of news sources.

Mahesh Narayanaswamy

When we say Surya, we are talking about the Sun which is the basic powerhouse of the planet. Life on the planet is solar powered, including human system. Surya Shakti is a way of using that energy. It does wonders for your health, as well as your physical and mental wellbeing.  Surya means “Sun,” and Shakti means “Energy”. Surya Shakti is a complete process, which is largely physical in nature.  Surya Shakti is an dynamic form of the Sun Salutation which is an ancient yogic practice with a powerful sequence of 18 postures.

Surya Shakti builds the physical body – it makes the sinews and ligaments of your body strong. In Yoga, we give importance to the sinews that hold the skeletal system and the whole body together. When we do any yogic practice, which is physical in nature, the focus is mainly to strengthen those, not to pump up your muscles. Strengthening the sinews of the body is what will endure for a long time and keep you well. Surya Shakti does this in a tremendous way.

Surya Shakti enriches your life in many ways:
Brings about physical fitness and overall wellbeing
Makes the sinews and ligaments of the body strong
Increases mental alertness and focus
Creates a basis for one to move into higher states of energy
Increases physical strength & stamina
Realigns the musculo-skeletal system
Increases energy levels
