Sadhana: Spiritual Practice, as the journey into a deeper wisdom of existence ; akin to Sanskrit sādhu going straight to a goal.
Have you ever wanted to learn more about yoga beyond the 60 minute class? Want to know how to nourish your physical body and your spiritual self ? Hear the call to re-align to the wisdom of the moon, the rhythms of nature and to reclaim a healthier, more fulfilled life, with greater purpose, passion and power?
Join us for this deep exploration into yoga, earth wisdom and soul reclamation. Dive into the full spectrum of yogic practices, with an integrated exploration of asana, mantra, pranayama, philosophy, mudra, meditation, ayurveda and mythology; woven through with the soul shaping practices of the divine feminine. Learn about the wheel of the year, the phases of the moon, and how to realign to the wisdom of nature.
Curate and create a sustainable and nourishing spiritual practice (sadhana), to guide, inspire and empower you throughout your life. Expect your body to thrive, and your soul to flourish.
This immersion is a stand alone course, the hours may be used toward Yoga Alliance accredited Continuing Education.
