Hi 🙏, I’m Criss. Thank you for taking interest in reading about me. I Just arrived from India after one year and a half; and I’m eager to share my knowledge and experience with you.
India held the space for me to unfold and embody everything I was meant to; to become one with it.
I became friends with my Breath, and since then, everything changed. Right after, it clicked… it has been always just my mind, separating me from everything perceived. Keeping me busy in the mental planes, when there is so much to engage with in each present moment. I learnt to observe without evaluation, and right there were the most beautiful ways of Self expression and the beauty of Pure Presence. Yet, as all is infinite potential, there is always a next level, a next chance to remain That, when the Self is so ready to react. I learned it’s less about the known, as it always shifts along with growth. It is about remaining curious, always a seeker of the Truth; yet, ready to renounce the known at all times. Ready to hold the space through Breath and conscious relaxation of the body. With the help of yoga, we can remember who we truly are, regardless of the mind (the constant seeking and finding). We remember we have always been Home, Here and Now. Through stillness, we can easily find and reside in the essence of our true nature. It cannot be that far, as it has always been within.
🪷 Let’s walk each other Home.

🕉️ HATH YOG
Joining, harmonising the two opposing forces. The union between the masculine (active) and the feminine (passive).
The process is a combination of pranayama (breathwork), asana (body postures) and dhyana (meditation). These practices altogether promote overall physical health, mental clarity, and spiritual well-being.
☯️ As we experience a dual reality, so is is reflected in the vessel, the body which each of us is aware of. Therefore, the benefits of this harmonising practice are numerous:
🪷 Benefits
* Emotional Balance
* Increaseses Self-Awareness
* Better Sleep
* Stress Relief and Reduction
* Improves Focus and Concentration
* Balances the Energy Flow in the entire body
* Improves Digestion
* Detoxification
* Improves the Immune System
* Better Flexibility, Mobility and Strength
🌳 Just as we have the the veins in the Physical Body, so we have the nadyah (energy channels) and chakras (energy centers) in the Subtle Body. The practice of Hath Yog, cleanses, opens, and balances these, letting the Flux of Prana (life force, vital energy) to flow freely.
🍃 Prana is the vital force that connects the body, mind and spirit. It is the subtle energy behind breath, yet it is not the breath itself. Rather, the power behind all movement thought and life.
That is why it is said that "where the attention goes, that's where the enrgy flows."
🌬️ Through conscious breathing, we are able to better contain our Life Force Energy, without letting it follow all distractions around us (consciously or unconsciously).
Hath Yog aids in this greatly.
