Essentials of Positive Thinking
Pranava Chaitanya
When you choose your thoughts, you create your reality.
Neuroscience has proven we have the power to shape our brains and the way we think, and yogis have known this truth for thousands of years. This time-tested course has been taught at the ashram for years, and now with Pranava Chaitanya as your guide, you can learn practical ways to positively transform your own ways of thinking from the comfort of home.
At a subtle level, your thoughts are the building blocks of your health, relationships, and experiences as you move through life. Positive thoughts are energizing and facilitate growth, while negative thoughts are draining. Get rid of old, self-defeating habits. Build new discipline and strength. Return home with a new set of tools and a rejuvenated mind … and a fresh, confident outlook on life.
Each day for five days enjoy a 90-minute class on the Essentials of Positive Thinking. A course manual is provided for you to follow along with the material. This course was originally presented in a live format so you will hear the interaction between students and teacher as questions are asked and answered.
“Whether a person is aware of it or not, he is constantly transmitting and receiving thoughts. Thoughts control our lives, mold our characters, shape destiny, and affect other people. When the potential contained in the power of thought is realized, it is the beginning of great spiritual growth in the individual.” —Swami Vishnudevananda
