ABOUT OUR PROGRAM
BHAVAGAD GITA STUDIES
The Bhagavad Gita is one of the most profound spiritual texts ever written, offering timeless wisdom for navigating life’s challenges with grace and purpose. It is one of the fundamental texts that yoga is based upon, and yet it is so often not highlighted or focused on in 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings. This program is designed to fill in that gap. It's your chance to immerse yourself in its teachings and uncover how its philosophy can guide you in today’s world. Whether you’re a yoga teacher looking to deepen your knowledge or someone on a path of self-discovery, this course is designed to make the Gita’s teachings accessible, relatable, and deeply transformative.
WHAT IS THIS Program About?
This Bhagavad Gita Studies Course explores the heart of this sacred text through the lens of yoga philosophy and modern life. Together, we’ll explore the Gita’s key themes: the path to self-realization, living in alignment with your dharma, and cultivating a life of devotion, balance, and surrender. With a blend of ancient wisdom and practical tools, this program will empower you to apply the Gita’s teachings in your own life and in your yoga practice.
​
Through engaging lessons, meaningful discussions, and guided practices, you’ll learn to unlock the transformative power of the Bhagavad Gita and integrate its wisdom into your day-to-day life.

TESTIMONIALS
SOME KIND WORDS FROM OUR
Program Students
Meet our students who've been part of past programs.
“If you are interested in learning more about yoga philosophy, then I highly recommend signing up for the Yoga Sutra Study program with Alex McRobert at the Mindful Life Practice!
​
I have been a student in the yoga sutra study class throughout this year, and it has been a fantastic experience!
Far too often, I think that western society teaches us that yoga mostly has to do with asana, or the physical postures of yoga. However, asana is only 1 of the eight limbs of yoga.
​
In the sutra study class, we get to delve deeply into the true purpose of yoga. We also get to learn about the many practices of yoga that can be applied to our lives (not just asana), as well as the benefits of each of these practices.
I definitely feel as though I have a much better understanding of the overarching purpose of yoga as a result of the Yoga Sutra Study program, as well as a lot more knowledge about how to apply yoga to my every day life.
Another awesome benefit of this program is that I have gotten to meet other people from around the globe who share the same interest in yoga philosophy as me, and I have been able form friendships with my classmates in this program, as we are meeting and connecting each other once a week over a long span of time.
If you are at all interested in learning about yoga philosophy, then this is the class for you! It is a fantastic experience!
