Yoga Vacation Program
May 9 — 12, 2024

Self Healing with Yoga, Vedanta, and Ayurveda Symposium

Swami Dharmananda, Ramkumar Kutty, and Durga Leela

The process of what we call holistic healing is not just healing of the physical and mental bodies, it is seeing your own self in a new light. Self-Healing is returning to our true nature and removing the obscuration of the mind through Yogic and Ayurvedic practices, and through healing karma.

The Yogic and Vedantic approach to Self-Healing is based on the subtle understanding of a philosophical, consciousness-based interpretation of reality. Self-Healing is about treating the total person where the Self/Atman occupies the central role, and we understand that the Atman governs the body and mind from within. From this perspective, we prioritize our practices to discover, strengthen, and protect the connection to Self. The Ayurvedic approach to Self-Healing is based on the respect and understanding of Nature’s divinity and wisdom.

This is the complete spiritual path offered to ready spiritual seekers and health-conscious individuals in a nutshell. Taught by Swami Sitaramananda, the Acharya of Sivananda Yoga Farm in Grass Valley, California, she will be joined by Swami Dharmananda, also of the Yoga Farm, Dr. Ramkumar Kutty, Ayurvedic physican from the Punarnava Ayurveda Community in Combiatore, India, and Durga Leela, the founder of Yoga of Recovery. Received condensed gems of wisdom from years of practice and teaching that will help you to go straight to the goal, knowing what is important, and what is not, to be successful in life and in Self-realization.

Offered as 6 satsangs and 7 workshops (subject to change).

The presentations associated with this Yoga Vacation Program begin with an 6am satsang on the first day of the program and conclude with an 2pm workshop on the last day of the program.  Click here to read more about the Yoga Vacation Program details and view the ashram schedule for yoga classes and meals during your stay.
