Shib Nath De provides a unique introduction to authentic ancient Indian yoga practices. In the United States, various health clubs teach yoga as a low impact technique of physical fitness. However, the traditional practice of yoga is a very personalized one that is tailored to the health needs of a particular individual. Yoga has incredible healing power for both physical and mental suffering. Here is a partial list of the health conditions that can be successfully treated by yoga:

Arthritis, spondylosis, frozen shoulder, sciatica, gout, asthma, piles, depression, hypertension, insomnia, multiple heart blockages, diabetes, migraine headaches and stress.

Mr. De was the therapist of the honorable Mr. V. P. Singh, the ex-Prime Minister of India. He also helped a number of Indian parliamentarians and Supreme Court judges ease their pain and suffering. Shib Nath De's father, kriya yogi Bolin De, tutored him in the essence of yoga from his childhood. He began his formal study and practice of the discipline at age 18 under the great master Yogi Guru Buddha Bose, who founded the Yoga Cure Institute in Calcutta in 1937. At present, Mr. De is the head of the two leading Yoga institutions in Calcutta, with about 175 clients who are referred by the top physicians in the city.

On his visits to the United States, Mr. De begins with a lecture followed by group demonstration of relaxation, meditative breathing and pure meditation. He gives a talk on the values of life, centering on the concepts of health, tranquility and the integration of body, mind and soul. At the end of the talk there is a question and answer session and a chance to learn more from him about incorporating yoga into a busy life.

For those who are interested, Mr. De will arrange a series of one-on-one yoga sessions so that individuals can develop a private yoga practice specifically designed to their needs. Because Mr. De regularly returns to the United States, yoga routines can be modified every six months, thereby ensuring a continually evolving practice.
