What is Faith?

Faith is aligning your consciousness with Spirit and not being dominated by your senses. Faith is being more reliant and trusting in Spirit than in mere appearances. It is not fantasies, cravings or desires of the mind or ego. Rather, it is penetrating beyond the senses and the physical into the essence of things. Faith is tuning in with Spirit and welcoming spiritual transfers into the physical world.

How to Succeed

As you may know, we do not charge for our courses. All Yoga World content is free and available to you with our blessings. However, we do have a simple, but important request that’s key to the transformations necessary to succeed on the path.

We ask you to commit two hours a week to selfless service. This service can be anything you choose ranging from helping a family member or neighbor to volunteering at a nonprofit organization.

I Commit to Serve

This commitment is solely between you and your inner self.

Why the Commitment?
