As we have physical science to create external wellbeing, there
is a whole inner dimension of science to create inner wellbeing.
I call it Inner Engineering.” ~~ Sadhguru
Inner Engineering is a technology for wellbeing derived from the ancient science of yoga. For
those seeking professional and personal excellence, this program offers keys for meaningful
and fulfilling relationships at work, at home, in the community, and most importantly, within
yourself. By fostering an understanding of your interiority, this program empowers you to
handle the hectic pace of modern life with ease, experience life to the fullest and fulfill your
potential – a potential modern physicists and psychologists say is almost unlimited. This
program includes the Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya, a 21-minute yoga practice of
immeasurable transformative power and antiquity that Sadhguru has brought to the modern
world. Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya brings your entire system into alignment so that your
body, mind, emotions and energies function in harmony. It is now practiced by millions
worldwide.
Shambhavi Mahamudhra
Regular practice of the Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya has enabled people to either completely
come off, or at least considerably reduce, medication for a range of ailments including asthma,
hypertension, depression and diabetes. Studies have also shown that regular practice benefits
cardiac health, improves sleep quality and leads to increased coherence between right and
left brain, resulting in enhanced mental capacities.
Please note that, since the Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya cannot be learned online, it is not
included in the Inner Engineering Online program. Instead, for those who have completed
Inner Engineering Online, the kriya is offered as a separate one- or two-day program called
the Shambhavi Mahamudra Program.
