The path of yoga is rooted in steady, daily practice—yet its essence is the moment-to-moment freedom from fear, limitation, and separation. In this program, we will enter the living heart of yogic meditation: both as a discipline and as a direct, transformative experience. Together, we will discover our heart’s innate wisdom, awaken clarity of dharma—our true calling—and recognize our deepest nature as bliss and love.
The program will include:
Through these timeless pathways, we will deepen our connection to the heart’s wisdom, clarify purpose and direction, and open to the radiant truth of our being: pure bliss and unconditional love.
Offered as 3 satsangs and 3 workshops (subject to change).
