Universal Academy of Parapsychology - 2
Aims
Our Goal is to be one of the most ‘prestigious' academies for distance learning. With our intentions we realistically foresee ourselves to be the top UK metaphysical courses providers. The Academy promotes research and public studying into parapsychological phenomena.
The UAP advocates use of the scientific method. Psychic experiences should be studied in the same way as other human experiences. Evidence should be evaluated accurately and compassionately.
UAP Works within the private sector and is an independent standing self regulating professional teaching course.
We are a VAT Registered Limited Company, Registered in England. Company Number:05984436. We are not partners in business or associated in any way to any 'other' organization/s or political group/s other than in the cases of Memberships and Affiliation and so on to other professional bodies.
UAP Ltd. is a distance learning Academy that develops International certificates and diploma qualifications in the field of Metaphysics and Parapsychology. Therefore the student can study on his or her own schedule rather than a schedule set by a university.
UAP is not under ownership of any religious or metaphysical organization and is non-denominational. Students from any faith or creed or none are welcome. UAP is truly international in scope and does not restrict itself to the outmoded or arbitrary educational norms of any one country. Administration is co-ordinated partly from the United Kingdom and partly from overseas, and tutors may be located in any country where adjunct faculty reside. UAP is a class of institution that is increasingly prominent and accepted all over the world.
UAP has made its program affordable for people of all walks of life, keeping tuition prices low, and creating payment plans for every budget. It gives us great pleasure to be instrumental in enriching the professional and personal development of students all over the world.

Yoga - Dr. Motaleb Barazandeh (Ph.D)
Yoga - 2
The word Yoga is an ancient Sanskrit for "union", which refers to the merging of the body, mind, and spirit. So Yoga, in general, is a spiritual practice or discipline that helps the individual unify his/her body, mind, and heart. Although many people know Yoga as a type of exercise system that stretches and strengthens the body through various poses known as asanas (postures), it is more than an exercise routine. The breathing techniques and relaxation release tension and stress, and teach you to relax and enjoy life. Deep Relaxation is traditionally the conclusion and culmination of every Yoga session. The meditation practice teaches to calm the mind and brings emotional balance. It also increases awareness of what is happening in your own body and mind. For example some of yogis can increase or decrease their heart beat at will. Finally it increases your awareness. If you stay with yoga long enough, you may discover a "spiritual awakening" Therefore not only does yoga increase circulation, improve flexibility and muscle tone or relieve chronic pain and alleviate anxiety-related disorders but also supports us in developing personal practices that cultivate a sense of light, harmony, health, and well-being.
Types of yoga:
There are many types of yoga. Amongst the most popular are:
Hatha Yoga: deals with physical postures and breathing.
Raja yoga: western kind of Yoga. It unites the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of the self. It is the most practical.
Karma Yoga: spiritual practice to help the individual unify body, mind, and heart through certain practices in one’s daily life.
Bhakti Yoga: a devotional form that includes chanting and worship practices.
Jnana yoga: the Yoga of knowledge, they find their peace through the study of scriptures.
Kundalini yoga: focuses on the release of internal energy, using postures, breathing and meditation.
Ashtanga Yoga: a fast flowing, aerobic yoga workout.
Iyengar Yoga: strong, precise style of yoga for the fitness conscious.
Vini yoga: a gentler style with emphasis on healing.
Satyananda yoga: a gentle style of traditional Hatha Yoga, suitable for all age and shape.
Bikram Yoga: a dynamic style of yoga, practiced in a heated room.
Who does Yoga?
Yoga benefits people of all ages, men and women. People young and old can gain many benefits from regular yoga practices, and asanas can be adjusted to fit physical limitations and other complications. If you want a break from treadmills or the pool etc, take a look at yoga. Not only are you striving towards physical well being, you are striving towards spiritual well being as well.
