Amazing Facts about The Sukshmah Method
This health practice has been kept secret for centuries and is now being introduced to the Western World. This series of exercises is used by advanced yogis when coming out of Samadhi (a deep state of meditation where the practitioner may be still for hours, days, or months at a time) to bring life and vitality back to the body. It is known as the yoga of immortality as it works on the subtle body known as Sukshmah Sharira which gives life and vitality to the physical body. This practice is designed to rid the body of disease, re-establish the flow of prana in the body, and awaken dormant powers in you. It looks and feels different from other forms of yoga, and the energy released is felt within the first 5 minutes of practice. This is a wellness and health practice that complements any other forms of yoga, athletics, performance, and fitness modalities you may do and causes you to catapult to a new level of excellence. With a consistent practice of The Sukshmah Method, you feel renewed, and you gain inner strength and power rarely accessed through any other means.

Testimonials
The Sukshmah Method training was so much fun! I just loved being together with my Naam Community worldwide, since the training was online. Overall, I feel stronger in my body, which makes me stronger in my Vinyasa practice, and more resilient mentally and emotionally to the tremendous amount of stress, we are all under in these very interesting times! I am grateful for the practice and so honored to be able to teach it to others. I love that my students, those who could not practice Vinyasa, can get through the entire practice, too! They share with me that they are seeing results in their physical mobility, lung health, and emotionally as well – and this was only after the first three weeks of three times-per-week classes with me. It’s a very different and very amazing practice! I just love it!
It was such an honor to help my colleagues with the exercises and to support them in becoming great teachers. I feel very confident teaching this practice and look forward to sharing it with others, as I’ve seen such amazing results with my practicum class’ students already! Thank you for the training and the opportunity to serve!
- ALLYN CIOBAN - YOGA TEACHER, ERYT 500
Just like Dr. Levry says, The Sukshmah Method practice changes your EVERYTHING. After a two-week series, I feel more grounded, centered, and calm – which is especially helpful given what we are experiencing in the world today. My body has noticeably changed: leaner, better digestion, clearer vision, and deeper sleep. A persistent shoulder injury and tension in my hand have disappeared. I feel taller and have better posture. My breath capacity expanded exponentially, and I breathe all the way to my toes now! Spiritually, I am receiving divine creative inspiration, experiencing more serendipity, and having a deeper connection to my heart and God. It’s as if all blocks – internally and externally – have melted away. It’s wonderful to practice with people from all over the world and to be connected via this extra special practice gifted to us by Dr. Levry and expertly guided by Renata and Alyssa. Thank you for making this accessible to us during this time of the great unknown. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
