What Makes Us Special

Knowing more about ourselves helps us deal with life challenges. When we stop looking for external validation and we turn inwards, we can see the truth of who we really are: strong, capable, and powerful. But it takes work and dedication to understand this truth. In Sri Sri School of Yoga, we help you reach the point of self-recognition by teaching you ancient yogic wisdom and giving you tools to apply it in your everyday life. This is what makes us special. Once you know yourself, everything is possible.
