Angela and Victor's Yoga introduction to how to meditate (searched & found . . . ) 





Angela Farmer and Victor van Kooten are yoga teachers who encourage students to explore their bodies through movement, breath, and meditation. They believe that yoga should celebrate the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the body. Here are some ways they introduce meditation into their yoga classes:
  • Focus on the body
    They encourage students to explore their bodies to find places that are blocked, inactive, or painful. They believe that gentle movement and breath can help students release these places and reconnect with their bodies.
  • Integrate meditation, breath, and movement
    They don't separate meditation, breath, and movement, but sometimes focus on one aspect more to add depth.
  • Use nature images
    They may use images of nature to guide students to greater freedom and ease of movement.
  • Encourage personal exploration
    They encourage students to discover their own personal practice and interpretations. 
Farmer and van Kooten also have other resources, including:
  • A yoga notebook: A book with drawings and text that describes their yoga teaching 
  • Audio CDs: A set of four CDs that guide the listener on an exploration of the inner world 
  • Inner Body Flow DVD: A video that introduces the concepts of Inner Body Yoga 
  • Podcast: A podcast called Inner Explorations with Angela and Victor
