What you see - Enter any branch of Isha Yoga and you will sense a certain aura and spirituality. Young and old in casual pyjamas and T-shirts practice meditation and seem at peace. MetroMela visited one such session and came back knowing a lot more about Inner Engineering that Isha Yoga aims at.

What you get - Inner Engineering is aimed at enhancing our inner capabilities thereby increasing our productivity and helping us grow spiritually too. This is one kind of Yoga which looks into different aspects of our body, mind, emotions and most importantly energy. Designed by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, it encompasses vital aspects that make up our life, including food, mind and stress management, through lively and frank talks by the Master. So for instance, you are explained about the effects or influence of good food, or in Yoga parlance, Pranic and negative Pranic food, so that you move towards good eating habits.

Apart from sensible food choices, the tangible health benefits of this kind of Yoga are known to be increased memory, flexible body, and generally ‘light’ state of mind. Isha involves its meditators in social activities as well, like planting trees, meals for the poor etc.

Isha Yoga Programmes happen in more than nine centers in the city. Cost for the seven day inner engineering programme is Rs. 1,500/- for adults. Teachers can also do a free introductory talk for corporates or gatherings of more than 50 people. There are Yoga and nature awareness programmes for children too.

Our verdict - For those who are looking for holistic health our word would be ‘Go for it’. Inner Engineering truly engineers you, overhauls your mind and body and rejuvenates you to deal with your life situations in a much better way than you used to. MetroMela interacted with Isha participants, long term meditators apart from the teachers of Isha Yoga, who vouch by it for the tremendous transformation it has brought about in them. They say they see a new dimension to life with it.
