MORARJI DESAI NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF YOGA
Yoga is essentially spiritual. It dignifies the essential unity that is the basis of life. It embraces the full spectrum of reality, from the most spiritual to the most material. The Philosophy of Yoga is practical and applicable in our day-to-day living. The practice of Yoga is a process of self - discovery. It is an awakening of long deep rooted memories of whom and what we really are! Yoga, as union, implies perfect harmony of body and mind. It implies the harmonious integration of personality. The most common benefit of Yoga practice is the sense of well being at all levels of our existence.
Yoga understands health and well-being as a dynamic continuum of human nature and not a mere ‘state’ to be attained and maintained. The lowest point on the continuum with the lowest speed of vibration is that of death whereas the highest point with the highest vibration is that of immortality; in between these two extremes lays the states of normal health and disease. Yoga involves a holistic approach to healing and well-being and integrates healing with the culture, diet, environment and tradition. Yoga practices have shown to reduce physiological signs of mental stress, both in normal persons and in those with abnormally high levels of stress. Therefore it has got world-wide acceptance as an important system of health care.
Morarji Desai National Institute of Yoga (MDNIY), New Delhi is an autonomous organization fully funded by the Department of AYUSH, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India. It is a focal Institute for planning, training, promotion and coordination of Yoga education, training, therapy and research in all aspects.
MDNIY is conducting Diploma in Yoga Science for Graduates of one year duration for the last 15 years which is very popular course within and outside India. The Diploma holders are getting ample job
opportunities both in public and private sectors. Institute has started B.Sc. (Yoga Science) of three years duration from the academic year 2012-13 with the affiliation of Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, New Delhi, which is unique. Institute is also conducting many other Yoga educational, therapy and training programs. It is also conducting many other activities relating to Yoga promotion, propagation and research.
With the growing demand for the systems of Yoga world-wide, the Institute is getting requests for starting the short term courses in different aspects of Yoga. Therefore, the Institute has proposed to start Certificate Course on different popular techniques of Yoga. Pranayama and Meditation are two such popular
practices, and therefore the Institute is starting a Certificate Course in Pranayama and Meditation for Health Promotion. This is a 120 hrs. part time Course of 3 months duration to provide basic, classical and scientific knowledge about Pranayama and practices leading to Meditation.

Course Details
1. Relevance of the course
2. Syllabus of the course
Yoga is an ancient Indian system of Health Care and is essentially spiritual. The physiological effects and the health benefits of Yoga on different systems of the body and in different disease conditions is very well documented now. With the available evidences it has been proved that Yoga is having a potential in the prevention of diseases and promotion of health. The holistic approach of Yoga brings harmony in all walks of life and also influences our day-to-day living. It brings about suitable changes in the behavioural pattern and attitude of a person thereby helps to improve the inter-personal relationship at home and also in the society. Today, Yoga has become popular not only because of its strengths in prevention and management of many lifestyle related disorders including physiological and psychosomatic disorders.
The present day is characterized by scientific development and technological advancement aimed at making life comfortable. However, faulty life style, pollution, modern work culture have made the life miserable and created several health problems of all dimensions of life (physical, mental, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual). The modern medicine is failed to tackle many of the lifestyle related and psycho-somatic disorders effectively. Yoga, stands apart from all these systems and helps to manage such disorders in an effective manner. The speciality of Yoga is that it can get along with any other drug systems of health care and this facilitates the practitioners of other systems of medicine, including modern medicine experts, to prescribe Yogic therapies to the patients. There is a need to introduce such systems that could help to promote well being at all levels.
With the present need and demand for the system of Yoga, Foundation Course in Yoga Science for Wellness has been devised to provide basic classical knowledge of Yoga to the common people and to derive maximum benefits. This 50 hours course has been designed for the common man to meet out the motto of getting healthy life-style to make the journey of their life more happy and successful in all its aspects. This programme was successful and quite encouraging.
With the growing demand for the systems of Yoga world-wide, the Institute is getting requests for starting the short term courses in different aspects of Yoga. Therefore, the Institute has proposed to start Certificate Course on different popular techniques of Yoga. Pranayama and Meditation are two such popular practices,

Course Details
1. Relevance of the course
2. Syllabus of the course
Yoga is an ancient Indian system of Health Care and is essentially spiritual. The physiological effects and the health benefits of Yoga on different systems of the body and in different disease conditions is very well documented now. With the available evidences it has been proved that Yoga is having a potential in the prevention of diseases and promotion of health. The holistic approach of Yoga brings harmony in all walks of life and also influences our day-to-day living. It brings about suitable changes in the behavioural pattern and attitude of a person thereby helps to improve the inter-personal relationship at home and also in the society. Today, Yoga has become popular not only because of its strengths in prevention and management of many lifestyle related disorders including physiological and psychosomatic disorders.
The present day is characterized by scientific development and technological advancement aimed at making life comfortable. However, faulty life style, pollution, modern work culture have made the life miserable and created several health problems of all dimensions of life (physical, mental, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual). The modern medicine is failed to tackle many of the lifestyle related and psycho-somatic disorders effectively. Yoga, stands apart from all these systems and helps to manage such disorders in an effective manner. The speciality of Yoga is that it can get along with any other drug systems of health care and this facilitates the practitioners of other systems of medicine, including modern medicine experts, to prescribe Yogic therapies to the patients. There is a need to introduce such systems that could help to promote well being at all levels.
With the present need and demand for the system of Yoga, Foundation Course in Yoga Science for Wellness has been devised to provide basic classical knowledge of Yoga to the common people and to derive maximum benefits. This 50 hours course has been designed for the common man to meet out the motto of getting healthy life-style to make the journey of their life more happy and successful in all its aspects. This programme was successful and quite encouraging.
With the growing demand for the systems of Yoga world-wide, the Institute is getting requests for starting the short term courses in different aspects of Yoga. Therefore, the Institute has proposed to start Certificate Course on different popular techniques of Yoga. Pranayama and Meditation are two such popular practices,
and therefore the Institute is starting a Certificate Course in Pranayama and Meditation for Health promotion, a part time Course of 120 hrs. duration to impart basic, classical & scientific knowledge about Pranayama and practices leading to Meditation.
