What is Kemetic Yoga?
Kemetic yoga is a form of yoga that draws inspiration from the ancient Egyptian practices of physical postures, breathing techniques, and meditation.
Key Principles of Kemetic Yoga:
-
Alignment with the Divine: The practice aims to align the body, mind, and spirit with the divine principles of Maat (balance, harmony, and truth).
-
Breath Control: Emphasis is placed on deep, controlled breathing to enhance energy flow and promote healing.
-
Physical Postures: The postures are based on ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and are designed to improve circulation, flexibility, and spinal alignment.
-
Meditation: Meditation is an integral part of Kemetic yoga, focusing on connecting with the inner self and the divine.
-
Holistic Approach: The practice emphasizes a holistic approach to well-being, encompassing physical, mental, and spiritual aspects.
