In Shraddha Yoga Therapy we cultivate a heightened awareness of the 12 primary meridians that activate the 12 primary organ systems of the body as recognized in Traditional Chinese Medicine, within the asana of Traditional Hatha Yoga.
Each posture is designed to influence the flow of chi through particular meridians, influencing their corresponding organs & thus having a specific therapeutic effect.
