The teachings of the Chopra Center originate from the man who developed them, Deepak Chopra.
The center was founded in California in the early 1990s as an alternative to conventional Western healing practices, and is based on Hindu unification principles, more specifically the unity between the body, mind, and spirit. Teachings of Chopra include the, "Ten Keys to Happiness," and the, "Seven Spiritual Laws of Success." A follower of Chopra's teachings lives a simple lifestyle of yoga and meditation, and keeps the body healthy through proper nutrition and abstinence from alcohol and drugs.
