Experience Peace of Mind Much of the stress or limitations in life come from vacillating between regret about the past or worry about the future. And yet, the present is the only place that happiness can be experienced. A remarkable feature of the course is that participants are able to re-discover the present moment — not as a concept but as a direct experience.
Sudarshan Kriya The centerpiece of this course is Sudarshan Kriya, a powerful breath-oriented technique that eliminates stress and brings one completely into the present moment.
One of the breath’s great secrets is that for every emotion there is a corresponding rhythm in the breath. Sudarshan Kriya utilizes this connection between the breath and emotions, and the whole system is brought into balance. The results are tangible and immediate.

It is my good fortune to be writing this book, because it led me to a practice from which I am deriving enormous benefit. I feel lighter than I used to, as though I’m carrying around less baggage. Yet, at the same time, there is a growing sense of strength at my core. - Amy Weintraub, on the Art of Living pra
