Teacher training program for hormone yoga therapy - specialization andropause -

This specialization as Hormone Yoga Therapist for andropause has 3 Levels:

  • Level II is done by email and is a multiple-choice test about yoga in general, physiology of women hormones, pranamaya Kosha, etc.
  • Level III, May 6 & 7, teaches a lot of theory and really prepares you to teach.

To assist to the levels II and III you must present a yoga teachers diploma informing 250 hours of lessons.

Dinah Rodriguez created HORMONE YOGA THERAPY for women bringing excellent results. Then men started asking her to create a technique for them!

By studying men’s physiology she found yoga techniques to reactivate the production of testosterone which now can help men with hormonal problems: from the first group practicing, the results were very good.

WHAT IS HORMONE YOGA THERAPY FOR ANDROPAUSE?

It is a natural technique, based in physiology and yoga, to reactivate the hormone production and eliminate the symptoms of low testosterone.

HOW DOES HORMONE YOGA WORK?

It has efficient results because it works directly on the glands, which reactivate the hormone production. As the level of testosterone increases, the symptoms are eliminated one by one.

For men, testosterone level may start decreasing as from age 45 and onward. Then at 60 they may start feeling the first symptoms. Dinah’s goal was to INCREASE TESTOSTERONE LEVEL AND ELIMINATE THE SYMPTOMS.

Men usually notice the symptoms because they feel the changes in their own body, such as: Difficult erection, low libido, premature ejaculation, reduction in hair growth, voice changes, irritation…etc.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET THE FIRST RESULTS?

“With one week of practice, you’ll feel energetic and with a new vitality, but the results are directly related to the regularity of the practice.

The more you practice the more beneficial this technic will be.”

This means that the testosterone level is already increasing and the intensity of some of the symptoms will start decreasing. Other symptoms may take 3 months to improve.

But if one is very stressed, the hormone level may decrease even before that and the symptoms also start earlier making men even more stressed:

  • We know stress decreases the hormone level nullifying the hormone results you already have.
  • We also know that a high level of testosterone helps to balance emotions and decreasing stress

To correct this sequence of negative events, Dinah added anti-stress techniques to the Andropause Yoga Therapy”:

  • Psychological orientation
  • Calming pranayamas
  • Concentration exercises specific to eliminate stress

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO DO THE EXERCISES ?

“When you know the series of exercises by heart, it will take 30 minutes and if you want quick results I am sure you will find a way to include those 30 minutes in your day.”

“But you also must learn how to deal with stress doing calming pranayamas and concentration exercises that suit you.”

AT WHAT AGE SHOULD START A MAN TO PRACTICE?

- Preventively, before 40 when the testosterone level may start to decrease.

- If a man is very stressed he should start even before to eliminating stress, which is very negative for the hormone level.

About Hormone Yoga Therapy

It’s a natural treatment along the line of energetic yoga, for hormone problems. It has special exercises to reactivate hormone production and, as a consequence, eliminates most symptoms of menopause. Hormone Yoga Therapy, as it increases estradiol level, also helps in the prevention of osteoporosis and cardiovascular diseases. Menopause is a controversial subject. For many people it is considered as a phase of intellectual decline, loss of femininity and “the beginning of growing old.” It is very important to be informed that this is just a phase of low hormones level. Hormone Yoga Therapy (HYT) brings a holistic approach of this subject with a series of exercises to prepare your body for menopause. If you want to go through menopause in good health and without symptoms, start practicing HYT. The symptoms may appear years before and can go on some years after menopause if there is a decline of hormones for any reason. Statistically, when women reach 35, their estrogen level begins to decrease and symptoms may appear, such as: hot flushes, dry mucosa, tiredness, anguish, depression, hair loss, dry skin and decreased libido. Originally created for women 18 years ago, results were so surprising that Dinah decided, few years ago, to investigate also about men. She based her work on men’s physiology and yoga, to create this technique to reactivate hormone production and eliminate the symptoms of low testosterone. This new series dedicated to men is essentially focused to face side effects of andropause…with amazing results!
