Masterclass - Understanding the Psychology of Yoga - 7 Oct 2020
Yoga offers one of the most complete understandings of the human psyche ever compiled. Codified by Patanjali 2,500 years ago, and extended and developed in every generation since, the field of Yoga gives you an in-depth map of the psyche all the way from body through to soul.
Andrew Wells has helped pioneer Dru Yoga and Meditation in the war zones of the world, has done in-depth mentorings and chakra analyses with hundreds and hundreds of people, and codified Dru's advanced pratcitioner courses. Specialising in advanced yoga energetics, he's nevertheless greatly loved for his ability to make the vast complexities of psychology into simple principles we can apply through our day.
Tonight we'll be exploring yoga's description of the five main types of behaviour, using precise yoga and meditation techniques to refine our psyche towards contact with our Higher Mind. It's going to be a magnificent evening, inspiring, fun and remarkably comforting. We're hoping that you'll feel even more like you've 'come home', resting inside yourself with comfort and clarity, while holding greater awareness of your fundamental purpose in life and how to express this.

After completing the first module, I have been given the most amazing insight of how unique Dru Yoga is. I feel excited, inspired and cannot wait to learn more, the way the course is put together and paced is very well thought out, the course materials and the staff are amazing and supportive.
The course has helped me to understand the ‘nuts and bolts’ of how Dru yoga works. I feel that it has been great for self-development and identification. It has help me progress in future learning and further development. I also feel the course has inspired my teaching by bringing in more koshic awareness.
As a qualified Dru Yoga teacher, I thought I had a good understanding of asana and the koshas - which of course I did, but the APD course has taken that level of understanding and more importantly my personal experience of my yoga practice to a different level.
The course took me on a journey through the koshas in a way that not only increased my awareness of how I experience asana but also how to use asana to reshape my experience. With the support and guidance of the tutors, I was able to revisit the asana I previously avoided which has contributed to my body being stronger and more flexible than at any time since my twenties - and I now love to practise those asanas.
Emotionally, it has helped me process difficult emotions such as grief and shown the way to change self-limiting beliefs. For me, the real gift of the course was the tutorials which became the foundation for building a supportive sangha of wonderful yogis which continues to exist. It was during these sessions of deep personal sharing that our fantastic tutors were able to share further their incredible wisdom and answer the many questions that inevitably spring forth in any process of swadhyaya - I highly recommend this course!
