"Namaste" holds significant importance at Rockholm, echoing the deep-rooted cultural values and traditions that permeate its atmosphere of hospitality and well-being.
The word "Namaste" is derived from Sanskrit and means "bowing down to you." It represents the idea that the divinity within oneself is bowing down to the divinity within others. When we perform the Anjali or Pranava Mudra with our hands in front of our hearts, we can experience the love, joy, inner peace, and inner light that exist in every soul.
In Yoga, we often repeat these mudras to symbolize the balance and harmony between the right and left energy channels (known as Ida and Pingala energy) united in our center. "Namaste" aims to bring balance and calm to the mind and body. The pressure points in the fingers that are activated during the gesture are linked to different areas of the brain and help balance and focus the mind, promoting a sense of calm and well-being.
When we hold our hands in front of the heart, the Anahata Chakra is stimulated. This fourth primary chakra serves as the center of love for oneself and others, compassion, empathy, and forgiveness. It is the source of something profound that cannot be expressed in words.
