“Kaivalyadhama certified teachers can get directly accredited under CYAI”

CYAI Website

Council for Yoga Accreditation International is modeled around the University accreditation system in the United States and field specific, standards bodies like that of law schools, business schools and medical schools.

The Council was registered on April 23, 2012 in response to the growing concern among the top yoga institutions of the world that efforts to maintain yoga standards had been hijacked by unqualified, self-appointed groups resulting in standards and certifications that did not mean much and was confusing the world.

The reality of yoga is that as a spiritual practice it was never seen as a profession in India, the land of its origin. It was seen as a volunteer service. However, today yoga is viewed by some as a profession as groups within the western world have led organized efforts. While this has given much boost to research yoga and bring greater awareness of yoga in the world, it has also diluted the essence of it. It is the hope of the Council to restore the purity of yoga by recognizing appropriate spokespersons for yoga, and with a peer accreditation, democratic approach, to election of Council Directors and to accreditation, instead of a self-appointed approach.

Only institutions are members of the Council, and individuals awarded certification by such accredited institutions may be submitted by the institution to the Council for loading in the searchable database. Once entered in the database by a member institution, the database listing will be displayed for 3 years from the date of certification, and thereafter proof of continuing education requirements must be met to renew for another 3 years.

According to World Health Organization cardiovascular diseases (heart failure and stroke) are number one cause of death globally.

Addressing unhealthy diet, obesity, physical inactivity, raised blood pressure, diabetes and raised lipids can prevent most cardiovascular diseases.
The lifestyle of city dweller, the stress we endure throughout the day and the diet we eat in a hurry all impact our body in negative way.
Our body is not made for the continuous stress – we are supposed to run away from danger and immediately after take a rest.
Instead we seem to be addicted to constant action and to bombarding our senses with information.
In the endless doing we forgot how to be. Relentless stimulation overburdens our sympathetic nervous system and unbalances our endocrine system – as a result our cardiovascular system reacts with contraction of blood vessels and the increased blood pressure.
That is how most of our cardiovascular problems start. It has been scientifically documented and proven that yoga can replace drugs in treatment of hypertension. It can also be very helpful in dealing with more advanced cardiovascular diseases.

Kaivalyadham Yoga Institute invites all cardiac patients to participate in a Rejuvenate Your Heart Program.
Based on yoga philosophy and natural sciences, this comprehensive three-week program is designed specifically with gentle yet thorough rejuvenation in mind.

It provides an array of daily treatments specifically designed:
- To rehabilitate the heart after angioplasty, by-pass surgery or after massive infarction.
- To improve coronary blood circulation/enhance collateral circulation.
- To energize the heart muscle.
-  To control the stress mechanism and improve the well-being.
- To improve the general physical and mental health.

The program is run and supervised by residential allopathic and Ayurvedic doctors in our Yogic Hospital. Each person is assessed on the first day and receives a personalized program specific to the case history and physical abilities. The program can be attended by anyone, but we aim specifically to help those who are suffering from cardiovascular problems.
