THE PROJECT
Is an entrepreneurial project that was born in Barcelona in 2012, by the graphic designer PIA MOURE and the photographer WARI OM, under Creative Commons License. Today it sells in more than 50 stores and Yoga Centres in Europe and SouthAmerica, as well as several Online Stores. Yoga Cards is already in its sixth edition with more than 9.000 units sold throughout the Globe.
Our goal is to reach many people and show them that Yoga is much more than “looking good”: Yoga provides body alignment, mental calm and, emotional balance. Not only does it lead us to live a healthier and more balanced life, but through constant practice we can also heal ourselves.
THE SOURCE OF INSPIRATION
The same Iyengar Master, who had serious childhood illnesses and little economic resources, went through a radical change in health levels and an awakening of physical, mental and emotional awareness with the regular practice of Yoga.
Guru Ji teaches us how to cure and prevent diseases through the practice of Yoga.
THE BKS Iyengar METHOD
The Iyengar method tries to develop a body awareness that reaches all aspects of life. This awareness provides the means to open the areas of the body that are blocked.
Three important points emerge from the alignment.
The precision: to achieve a correct and healthy posture.
The intensity: to maintain the postures and allow the energy flow.
The dynamism: to prevent inertia and passivity with in practice.
These three qualities enhance the rapid evolution of the practitioner, give depth, amplitude of perception and develop what B.K.S. Iyengar calls “The intelligence of cells.”

OUR SEARCH
At Yoga Cards we want you to connect with yourself, without the distractions of a cell phone or computer. Many have asked to create an App, but so far we have felt a little resistance, just to encourage sensitivity, either in nature or inside your home, but without plugs or wifi.
You carry with you a guide of asanas to heal the main pathologies, without the need for drugs, simply developing the listening of what your body needs and accompanying the inflammatory process, viral or whatever, from a more sensitive place and trusting in the body’s own healing abilities.
May the practice of Yoga enlighten all of us.
