Yoga Destroys Misery

Want to live in goodness and power rather than misery?

Explore the yoga practices which can help you overcome the obstacles (illness, doubt, delusion, laziness, destructive habits) which keep you from abiding in your true nature.

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?
