The Therapeutics of Yoga

A workshop with Geoff Farrer

28th February 2026 10.30am-4.30pm

In this workshop, we shall look at the therapeutic effects of yoga practice, and in particular the uplifting action of a brmhana practice, which has a more immediate stimulating and outgoing action on the individual. This is in contrast to a langhana practice, which has a more introspective and calming action on us. The therapeutic effects may be less immediately obvious. The choice of which kind of practice to take depends greatly on the needs or desires of the individual. Factors such as time of day, season of the year, an individual’s daily routines and time available for practice, all need to be considered before choosing an appropriate course of action. We will have 3 practices and have a Vedic chanting session in the afternoon after a shared lunch.

The Rise Centre, Whittox Lane, Frome BA11 3BY
