What is Classical Yoga?
Classical Yoga, also known as Raja Yoga, is the yoga of the Sutras of Patanjali, and dates back two thousand years. Classical yoga focuses on balancing a strong, healthy body with a focused and content mind, deepening our understanding of self, and the world around us. Classical Yoga contains of static postures (asanas), simple breathing techniques (pranayamas) and meditation.

What is Hormone Yoga Therapy (HYT) for Menopause?
HYT is a natural form of yoga for hormonal problems. Through Tibetan energy breathing techniques and exercises and controlling the energy flow in specific energy channels of the body, HYT works directly on targeted glands.  During the practice of HYT, the pituitary and thyroid glands and the ovaries and adrenals, are stimulated to reactivate hormone production.  As a consequence, most of the menopausal symptoms are eliminated and hormonal balance is restored. By using the body’s natural resources, HYT also assists in healing polycystic ovaries, and in keeping the body fit and flexible. As estradiol levels increase, HYT also helps in the prevention of osteoporosis and cardio-vascular diseases

Scientific research and results. 
In 1993 the results obtained by Dinah’s students were very favorable. Consequently she decided to carry out scientific research on the effects of yoga therapy practice on estradiol level and symptoms of menopause: hot flushes, uro-genital dryness, emotional instability, insomnia, tiredness, depression, migraine, infertility and hair loss amongst many others. To obtain the results, she asked the participants to do a blood test to determine their estradiol levels, before beginning the practice, and then again every month for a period of four months.  She used a detailed questionnaire to evaluate the intensity of the symptoms.   

Results of the research.
The results were very good: 100% of the students, during the three to four months of practice without medication, either had no more symptoms or if there were any symptoms, their intensity was near zero.   

Hormone level.
There was a 254% average increase in hormone level within a period of four months, with the participants doing 30 minutes of HYT every other day.

What Is Hormone Yoga Therapy (HYT) for Diabetes?
HYT for Diabetes is the dynamic type of yoga that assists in re-activating pancreas to produce insulin and maintain sugar level in the bloodstream.
HYT for Diabetes also helps the body to recuperate from diabetes, increases its vitality and flexibility.
To achieve that HYT uses such techniques as: dynamic asanas, pranayamas, energy balancing and Yoga Nidra.
HYT for Diabetes is not the substitute for medical care. It can be practiced as preventative tool or complementary to allopathic medicine recommendations.
As we practice HYT for diabetes, in addition to pancreas other glands benefit as well. Thyroid, adrenals, ovaries/testicles, pituitary gland and thymus are stimulated and encouraged to secrete, contributing to our well-being. Our very important detoxifying organs such as liver and kidneys are stimulated and work more effectively keeping our bodies healthy. By learning to control our stress better with Yoga Nidra and practice of Swadhiaya (self study) we become more aware of the causes of our stress and are able to control it better.
