Abstract

I chose the subject „Managing Negative Mental Health by Regulary Yoga Training“ because it's my field of expertise In my job as an Addiction Therapist, Psychological Counselor and Yogateacher I work with mental disbalanced, addicted and psychological sick people. Everyday I give lectures on mental health and hold group therapy and yoga lessons. I evaluate my work and study the writings of Western therapists and Eastern Yoga Masters on Yoga Psychology. Because of this I come to the conclusion that specific Yoga exercises are very helpful in managing negative mental health. Research at several European, American and Indian universities is going on. I am convinced that the ongoing scientific studies will show again positive results of yogic treatment. In the future Yoga will become very important for public health care systems. In my opinion it make sense to begin with teaching Yoga in schools. Children should be trained in mental pureness, concentration, physical fitness and self-discipline by Yoga. By this way we would prevent many problems such as troubles, difficulties of learning, and psychological problems of children. In India Yoga is a part of University programs. Students can graduate in Yoga, Yoga Philosophy, Education etc. at several Universities such as SVYASA University, located in Bangalore. It is my purpose to establish the Science Yoga as a part of academic University programs. Therefore I create a concept of a Bachelor-, Master- and Doctoral program in the field of Contemplative Psychology. Actually I offer these programs to the public at Bayurveda Academy, Germany, an affiliate of several international universities and yoga schools. In the following work I want to give an overview about the most important fields of my inspections in the field of Yoga. The citated resp. used literature is listed under „References“. [...]

A traditional prayer

Oh God, lead us from the
unreal to the Real.

Oh God, lead us from darkness to light.

Oh God, lead us from death to immortality.
Shanti, Shanti, Shanti unto all.
Oh Lord God almighty, may there be peace in
celestial regions.

May there be peace on Earth.
May the waters be appeasing.

May herbs be wholesome, and may trees
plants bring peace to all. May all beneficent
beings bring peace to us.

May all things be a source of peace to us.
And may thy peace itself, bestow peace on all
and may that peace come to me also.
