The ancient eastern tradition of Yoga has long understood the vital connections between the mind, brain and body. Many neuroscientists in the west are now recognising and realising the benefits of Yoga in regulating autonomic, neuroendocrine, emotional and behavioural activation through its integration of top-down (brain to body) and bottom-up (body to brain) processes.

TKV Desikachar was Krishnamacharya’s son and was his student for more than three decades, dedicated to promoting and continuing the work of his father and mentor.
