Vinyasa Flow
Teacher Training Program
Bhava - devotional
state of mind , “feeling mind”: Bhava is a deep yogic concept that extends to all of life as the feeling state
of being sometimes translated as “mood” that forms the inner “soil” from which all yoga experience
arises. Bhava is a whole body experience that athletes, artists, gardners – anyone who is bringing the power of inner
unification with the state they are experiencing into action. Technique without bhava is like food without taste – it
is the inner state that brings trasformation and satisfaction to the flow of yoga. ~Shiva Rea
