Yoga, Meditation, and Creative Visualization

In the 1970s, I studied and practiced hypnotism. I later chose to stop using these techniques, finding them too intrusive. At the same time, I was practicing extensively pranayama, yoga nidra (a deep relaxation technique associated with guided visualization), and meditation—practices that I have continued to develop and teach to this day.

Mediterranean Yoga - Aurum Solis

In the 1990s, I was introduced to a spiritual and Hermetic tradition known as the Aurum Solis, whose roots can be traced back to the Egyptian Ptolemaic era. Over time, I received the full teachings of this pre-Christian Western tradition. In 2003, I became the lifetime head of this ancient and respected school.

In the 2020s, I resumed a more intensive and holistic practice expressed through yoga, including yoga nidra.

In recognition of this training and my previous achievements in this field, I was certified as a yoga teacher and registered with the “Yoga Alliance” (E-RYT 500 – YACEP) and the “International Yoga Federation.”

Together with my wife Patricia, also a yoga teacher, we began implementing the eight components of our school within a contemporary Western yoga framework. For this reason, we introduced the name Mediterranean Yoga in association with its traditional roots.

This organization, Mediterranean Yoga – Aurum Solis, is now internationally recognized and registered as a school by the “International Yoga Federation.”
