Holistic Yoga

A Holistic Approach.

“Arjuna, those who eat too much or eat too little, who sleep too much or who sleep too little, will not succeed in meditation. But those who are temperate in eating and sleeping, work and recreation, will come to the end of sorrow through meditation.”   Krishna talking to Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita.

The Devon School of Yoga’s Holistic approach believes that we are all here to find ways to express our own unique individual creativity.
