Wellbeing
Campus Life offers many opportunities to improve your awareness of the relationship between mind and body and to adopt a healthy and balanced lifestyle, thus achieving a psychophysical balance and all-around personal health.
Please, note! Each of the following courses requires a minimum number of participants in order to be activated.
Yoga and Meditation
Dedicated to all those who need to improve your awareness of the relationship between mind
and body.
Yoga course: This practice draws on various areas of interest in Eastern tradition, offered as a valid tool for achieving psychophysical balance. Placing oneself in harmony with the source of life energy located in the stomach (HARA), muscular strengthening and resistance are improved and joints are freed from states of excessive tensing and lack of flexibility. The course offers a variety of useful and stimulating techniques. Each lesson will have different rhythms: energetic and focused (WASA), slower and more intense (KRIYA), purification exercises (DHAUTI) as well as keeping still in several positions (ASANA). The study and control of breathing (PRANAYAMA), our primary source of energy, is at the basis of each technique proposed.
As instructions will be given both in Italian and in English, this course is available also to English speakers.
Comfortable clothing should be worn. Each participant will need to bring their own yoga mat or towel.
A medical certificate for non-competitive sporting activities is required.

Calendar: Second semester (dates to be defined)
Where: On campus (Campus Life Area, via Bocconi 12).
Meditation (Samadhi) and Breathing (Pranayama) are intimately connected. Breathing into the belly, listening to and feeling the breath is the easiest way to harmoniously reconnect to our inner balance and restore the foundation for health. Meditation is based on a profound state of stillness that occurs by bringing attention to one's breath, which becomes a vehicle for developing an attention that is collected and focused on the reality in which we live. Both proposed practices are intrinsically connected.
The activity is open also to Faculty and Staff Members, but priority will be given to students.Calendar: Second semester (dates to be defined)
