Sufi Psychology Association®

Tamarkoz (Sufi Meditation) classes are offered at many Sufi centers (khaneghahs) and at selected colleges or universities. The classes includes a sequential set of interrelated exercises providing beneficial physical, mental, emotional and spiritual effects. The classes focus on the thirteen major energy sources, slowly and gradually helping one attain an internal state of balance, peace, and unity.

Key Elements of Tamarkoz®

The Tamarkoz classes include the following key components:

Concentration provides neurological and sensory training which enables us to learn to focus like a laser beam on a single point.

Movazeneh® includes specific postures as well as slow-motion exercises which stimulate, concentrate and balance the flow of energy of the 13 major electromagnetic centers of the body.

Clearing the Mind develops control of the neural circuitry of the brain and consciously slows down brain waves. This halts habitual interfering thought patterns, diminishes emotional reactions, and prepares us physically and mentally for concentration.

Breathing Exercises focus on increasing respiratory capacity and controlling the rhythm and duration of breathing. This ensures maximal oxygenation, helps to regulate other vital processes, and reduces reactivity.

Deep Relaxation teaches muscular control, and means of relieving tension and reducing stress. This allows the body to recuperate and revitalize.

Visualizationreplaces critical, negative thought patterns with more positive, healing images which encourage hope, vitality, motivation and creativity..

Sufi Psychology Association Conferences always include Tamarkoz exercises

Tamarkoz Retreats focus on the various elements of Tamarkoz.
