The fundamentals of yogic principle is where everybody should start. As a group we will contemplate and discuss what it means to live a lifestyle which is harmonious and ethical, connected to all that exists, and steeped in the presence of the moment through a constant stream of observation to all that is. You will learn yogic cleansing practices to help transform your energetic system, helping it to release, invigorate and inspire. You will also learn how to cleanse your minds and release repetitive thought patterns.

What these practices really are is a way of living that is in alignment with the different cycles of Mother Earth and our solar system such as solar cycles, moon cycles, and the 4 seasons. We will alchemize our potential by gathering in ceremony on specific solar and lunar dates throughout the whole 8 month program. These dates are important for freeing or releasing old patterns and awakening dormant pockets of energy. This feels like gaining a new perspective on life, being renewed, reborn, revitalized, completely connected to all that is.

We’ll also be discussing duality and how many beings are operating on a dualistic plane. This is the framework for learning and understanding what it is that we experience. Through the balancing and then the unification of these polarities, we come into a state of oneness, union, and that is the aim of all that everything you just read on this website page.

Through the practice of asanas (physical yoga postures), we cultivate awareness of the body and a deep relationship to what’s really going on from the inside. People always say "how do I know what I really feel like inside”? This is the way - asana and pranayama . It is what will allow us to become more sensitive in a balanced way so that we can speak with ourselves and come into harmony with ourselves.

A big part of yoga is the chakras. They’re a map of your energetic system, or the major conjunctions of energy that are existing through the many layers of your being. Working with the chakras allows you to pinpoint areas that are in need of healing and may be contributing to the imbalances in your daily life (work, relationships, thought patterns etc). Through the alignment of these chakras, disease can be greatly diminished or even disappear.

Have you ever heard of nāda yoga? What is nāda yoga? Vibrations of mantras, instruments and/or vocal toning are powerful. The sound waves flow directly through your physical system, allowing for deep rejuvenation in a short space of time. Mantra will be a consistent theme throughout the whole program because chanting in community is very powerful. Mantra is one of the greatest (and most fun) ways to reach enlightenment. It creates focus for the mind and as you all know, where attention goes, energy flows. Many beings have found great bliss chanting and dancing, moving into an ecstatic state of bliss where one is entirely in the moment, expressing joy and love.

We will also be learning all about Kundalini Yoga, including how to practice kundalini yoga safely. Everybody has kundalini energy within them, but not everybody has the same level ofaccess to it. Through the graceful and devoted practices, one will harness all that is necessary to awaken and integrate your limitless potential.

The most important part of all of this development is that it is able to be integrated so that you may hold this feeling for eternity, rather than it just be another life happening that is forgotten about in 6 months. This means that rest must be done in a conscious manner so that things are not overworked and you don’t burn out. I take a very nurturing approach when it comes to restorative and relaxation practices. Throughout this profoundly deep work, it is of the utmost importance to monitor your system and allow things to grow naturally rather than forcefully.
